Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League

GGReconLloyd Coombes

Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League, live service ambitions aside, is a fun shooter that feels like the closest you’ll get to a virtual DC Comics theme park; it looks great, and it’s full of recognisable characters.

"Marvel's The Avengers and Borderlands had a baby" is the easiest summation of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Luckily, the strengths of both fit well together, and the weaknesses don't derail the more enjoyable elements of the game. Fans of the Gearbox lootshooter series will have plenty of fun taking that same trigger-happy approach to the DC Universe. The gameplay will likely grate on people who don't want to jump into 30 firefights in a single session, and future DLC would be well...

While it’s better than it could have been, it also could have been much more. As a live service game with an unfinished main story, I wouldn’t feel bad about waiting for more content to drop over the coming months before you pick it up.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has been out for a little while and it's definitely not widely acclaimed but I actually kind of like it.

The most dangerous villains in the DC Universe have been forced to team up and take on a new mission: Kill the Justice League.

It is safe to say that superhero hype is already way past its prime. It is also safe to say that live service AAA games are now considered a black sheep in the gaming industry, and a surefire way to make a developer and publisher lose a ton of money and credibility. Just look at a big example, Square Enix’s Avengers game. It came out, wasn’t well-received by critics and the public, sold below expectations, wasn’t lucrative enough to recoup its bloated and imbecile development costs, and...

I know there’s been a literal tonne of negative press surrounding the release of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League (SSKtJL). The truth is, I by no means think it’s terrible. There are flashes of brilliance peppered throughout its relatively short runtime. Gorgeous cinematics and a fun, competent story anchor an otherwise forgettable gameplay loop. Forgettable possibly being an understatement. But, if you go into SSKtJL with your expectations in check, you may squeeze an experience out of it that won’t leave you hankering for a self-inflicted dirt nap.

Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League is a serviceable action game bogged down by an insistence on being a live service title. While the characters are well written and the comedy is on point, a handful of repetitive objective types betray the intentions of an otherwise strong combat system. There is potential here – perhaps over time, Suicide Squad can evolve into something better – but for now, it's something that only absolute diehards will enjoy, and even then, that's not a guarantee.

“Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League constantly finds ways to stop players from enjoying this bombastic cooperative shooter.”

4/10

Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League was set to be dead on arrival. A live-service romp in the Arkhamverse that once stood tall. This live-service co-op shooter is boring, bland, and is more focused on racing to the endgame than letting its fun character moments shine.

4/10

A repetitive and dull gameplay loop that’s thematically allergic to the game’s cast of misfits only begins to describe how heartbreakingly disappointing Kill the Justice League truly is. Rocksteady should’ve died a hero, instead, it’s lived long enough to see itself become the villain.

Between an insanely tedious gameplay loop, inferior writing, avaricious scheming, and more, Suicide Squad ranks among the most villainous & disreputable live-service games.Reviewer's Note: Certain story critiques require me to post some SPOILERS.  Read on at your own risk.It's been nearly [...]
