Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will reportedly release in 2023 instead of this year.
Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will be the first game from Rocksteady since 2015’s Batman: Arkham Knight. The studio finally announced the new DC game at the first DC FanDome in 2020 and revealed gameplay at the 2021 event in October. The game hasn’t received a proper release date, but it was said to arrive sometime this year.
According to Bloomberg, Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will now release in 2023. While Rocksteady’s upcoming Suicide Squad game might not be hitting store shelves until next year, WarnerMedia still plans on releasing LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, Hogwarts Legacy, and Gotham Knights in 2022.
Based on the footage released so far, Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will see Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark take on the likes of Superman, The Flash, and Green Lantern, possessed by Brainiac.
Here is the synopsis for Rocksteady Studios’ last game, Batman: Arkham Knight:
In the explosive finale to the Arkham series, Batman faces the ultimate threat against the city he is sworn to protect. The Scarecrow returns to unite an impressive roster of super villains, including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn, to destroy The Dark Knight forever. Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady’s uniquely designed version of the Batmobile, which is drivable for the first time in the franchise. The addition of this legendary vehicle, combined with the acclaimed gameplay of the Batman Arkham series, offers gamers the ultimate and complete Batman experience as they tear through the streets and soar across the skyline of the entirety of Gotham City.
Batman: Arkham Knight is available on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, while Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will reportedly release in 2023.
