A new Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League cutscene has sparked a debate about the direction the story is going in, as the latest season teases the next playable character.
Mrs. Freeze was added to Rocksteady’s controversial live service shooter last week as part of the launch of Season 2, and with it came a cutscene that’s set tongues wagging within the game’s small but loyal community.
Warning! Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League Season 2 spoilers follow:
The new cutscene shows the return of The Flash after the Suicide Squad save him from captivity by killing yet another post-launch Brainiac as part of Season 2. The Suicide Squad had killed The Flash alongside other corrupted members of the Justice League in a bid to save Metropolis from destruction at the hands of Brainiac in the base game's main story.
Some have called the story development a surprise, while others have said a post-launch plot twist that saw the return of “good” Justice League members was always on the cards. Either way, players are wondering about the exact nature of the Flash’s return, what it means for Brainiac’s masterplan, and raising the possibility that other characters apparently killed by the Suicide Squad, including Batman, Green Lantern, and Superman, could also be set to return.
One of the most controversial story beats in the Suicide Squad base game is the death of corrupted Arkham trilogy Batman, who is unceremoniously executed by Harley Quinn. Some criticized the death, saying it failed to give the character, voiced by the late Kevin Conroy, the sendoff he deserved.
But could Batman now be set to return alongside more voice work from Kevin Conroy? This new cutscene suggests the Suicide Squad killed clones of the original Justice League members during the main story, with Brainiac holding the real deals hostage. However, some suggest the Suicide Squad did in fact kill the original Justice League members, but Brainiac has since revived them, and it is now the task of Captain Boomerang, Deadshot, Harley Quinn, and King Shark, to save them.
Whatever the case, in the cutscene The Flash sees the Suicide Squad and wonders why they’re not in jail, before collapsing. The character’s return is not mentioned further.
Perhaps more revelations, and real Justice League members, will show up in Season 3, which looks set to add Lawless as a playable character. While the list of post-launch DLC characters was already leaked via a datamine, Rocksteady has teased their inclusion with changes to Metropolis that clearly indicate who’s up next. Season 1, for example, teased the arrival of Mrs. Freeze with a chilly change to Metropolis, and now players have spotted another change that suggests Lawless is coming soon. After Lawless, Deathstroke is expected to round out the year one list of playable characters.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League was of course panned by critics upon launch and has extremely low player numbers on Steam. Some of the frustration stems from Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League not being another Batman game from Rocksteady, despite being set within the Arkhamverse. The developer’s single-player Arkham series is much-loved by fans, with 2011’s Batman: Arkham City in particular held up as one of the greatest, if not the greatest, superhero video games of all time.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, on the other hand, is a live service third-person shooter in which Batman is a villain. Soon after the game's February 2024 release, publisher Warner Bros. admitted the failure of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League contributed to a $200 million hit to revenue.
Last month, Warner Bros, told IGN that Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will see out its first year of support, but declined to comment on what happens afterwards. The question is, will Rocksteady’s apparent post-launch plan to have the Suicide Squad pivot to saving the Justice League after killing them be fully realized?
