Rocksteady’s upcoming Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League has reportedly been pushed back to 2023. Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier stated that people close to the development confirmed that the game will be pushed back to 2023. Warner has not confirmed the delay in the Suicide Squad video game yet, but it should come as no surprise that a delay is overshadowing this release.
This news comes shortly after Warner Media Chief Executive Officer Jason Kilar took to Twitter & said that Warner is: “delivering of a full slate of highly anticipated games.” that included Hogwarts Legacy & Gotham Knights.
The game is set in the universe previously established by the Batman: Arkham series, taking place sometime after the events of Batman: Arkham Knight. Amanda Waller creates a task force known as the Suicide Squad, which is composed of Arkham Asylum inmates Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, Deadshot and King Shark, for a covert mission in Metropolis. Only when they arrive in the city do they realize the severity of the situation: Brainiac has invaded Earth and has started brainwashing its inhabitants, including the Justice League members Superman, Flash and Green Lantern, with Wonder Woman as the only apparent member who is not under Brainiac’s control. Unable to depend on any hero for help, it is up to the Suicide Squad to save the world by assassinating the Justice League and stopping Brainiac.
Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will release on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S & PC.
