Rocksteady will release the last update for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League on January 2025 with Season 4 and Episode 8. This news shouldn’t be shocking, however, as the game has been a considerable and consistent flop both commercially and critically. Expectations ran high, given Rocksteady’s pedigree, but the game ultimately didn’t deliver, sending Warner Bros. Games’ Q2 2024 revenue. Despite some positive aspects, such as its polished visuals, fluid combat, and witty character interactions, the overall experience was marred by repetitive mission design, lackluster live-service elements, and an uninspiring story.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League to End Support in 2025; Deathstroke and Offline Mode Added

The game did get some good discounts over its lifetime, including a 95% off deal during the Steam Autumn sale, but it is now back to full price. However, the Holiday sale is just around the corner, and that usually brings some sizable discounts as well. Rocksteady has spent the last year developing post-launch content for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and has released four seasons that added new maps and characters.

The recent update had added Deathstroke, played with a melee combat style, along with a plethora of firearms ranging from assault rifles to shotguns and sniper rifles. Accompanying this, the new season episode offered an Elseworld inspired by DC’s own Dark Knights of Steel with a medieval-style theme and new gameplay experiences. Furthermore, one of the most heavily requested features, an offline mode, has also made a return, allowing players to play through all content without an internet connection, while online features like co-op play will still be supported.

Looking ahead, rumors suggest that Rocksteady is working on a Director’s Cut for Hogwarts Legacy. Fans of the studio’s Batman: Arkham series will also no doubt be hoping for a return to that universe in the future, though anything else is likely years in the making.
