The squad is taking extra time for launch

DC’s band of misfits is shifting again its launch date. A brand new report from Bloomberg says Warner Bros. has delayed the online game, pushing it from Could out to someday later this yr.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League was initially deliberate for 2022, till a delay pushed Rocksteady’s new DC undertaking into 2023. No official affirmation has occurred but for this delay, and a consultant for Warner Bros. didn’t reply to Bloomberg’s request for remark. No new date was made clear, both.

The Suicide Squad sport was the main target of a current Sony State of Play livestream, which confirmed off a few of its story and gameplay, in addition to its fairly Future-like live-service components. These features weren’t all warmly acquired, nonetheless. Now, Rocksteady seems to be taking some additional time.

No overt motive was talked about for the delay in Bloomberg’s report, although it must be formally introduced quickly. The discharge date, or fairly former date, is on Could 26 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Sequence X.

Given the backlash, in addition to the fumbles of Gotham Knights, a fellow DC sport with live-service components, I’m now curious to see what the highway forward for Suicide Squad is. Whereas I’m not notably eager on build-crafting my Captain Boomerang loadout the best way I might in Future, I’d additionally marvel what may be addressed at this level in improvement. We’ll have to only wait and see what the official Warner Bros. response and reasoning for this delay might be.
