I think it’s fair to say that Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League was a failure for Warner Bros. and Rocksteady. The publisher has publicly acknowledged that the game fell short of expectations and has remained silent about the game’s sales figures. Unsurprisingly, Rocksteady announced that the upcoming season 4 will be the game’s final season.
To be honest, kudos to you for sticking around this long. I was so thrilled to actually play the game that I couldn’t even think of writing a review, but I honestly thought the acting was fun and I had a lot of fun with my teammates. Considering how cheaply you can pick up the game, it might actually be worth a laugh.
Season 4, Episode 7 is scheduled to be released tomorrow, December 10th, and will add Deathstroke as a playable character along with a new offline mode.
“Offline mode allows you to experience content released in the game, including the main story campaign and all seasonal story mission content, without an internet connection,” the official blog post reads. “To access offline mode, you can either create a new profile from the moment you launch the game or make a copy of your existing online profile to start making all your progress right away. All cosmetics earned and purchased can also be used in offline mode.”
Along with this, Episode 7 includes a new locale.
“This Elseworld completely reimagines Superman’s hometown of Smallville as a medieval town completely stripped of the advanced technology that powers the modern-day Justice League. While fighting Brainiac during the Incursions, you can see remnants of the locals’ battle with Brainiac, the windmills and houses of a complete medieval village, and even the Hall of Justice reimagined as a feudal castle.
New weapons are also added.
Season 4, Episode 8 is scheduled for release in January and the game will end support with no plans for additional content. However, to Rocksteady and Warner Bros’ credit, the game’s servers will remain up and running, so you can enjoy co-op with the few people still playing. The inclusion of an offline mode strongly implies that the servers in question will go down at some point, which is understandable.
