Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League is a floating loot shooter with cosmetic-only battle cards

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League had a long show at the PlayStation State Of Play event tonight, which shed some light on what the kind of game Rocksteady has long awaited back to the DC Universe is really like. Turns out it’s a game with lots of hovering aerial battles, lots of noise, lots of loot and gear and weapons, and a battle pass (but only for cosmetics). Additionally, there will be DLC to add new characters after launch.

Here’s the six-minute collaborative demonstration:

And here’s a behind-the-scenes video, with plenty of developer commentary to give you the full experience:

I watched this and thought: yes, A video game. I mean, the combination of market research and mid-term brand strategy is designed to cater to an executive’s idea of ​​why Ubisoft’s stock price was higher than theirs at the time. 2016. I mean, the kind of games their own developers might praise for having “too much content” or for being “loud and unfair and in your face”. I mean, the kind of game that makes me feel like I’m wasting my time just being here in this space. I mean, IGN 9.

Or it could be good, I don’t know, but I hate the trailer.

Not everything in the trailer is news. We have known from Leaked screenshots that the Suicide Squad will have a battle pass, although it’s good to know it’s only for cosmetics, I guess? There are also notable absences: for example, the trailer doesn’t show any vehicles, even though it will have them.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is coming to PC via Steam And Epic game store on May 26.
