- The game's performance has been underwhelming, raising questions about its future.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Season 2 will begin on July 11, and with it comes a new playable character in the form of the icy Mrs. Freeze. Rocksteady has been fighting an uphill battle with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, which has generated several controversies over its plot, live-service gameplay model, and post-launch DLC. Nonetheless, the developer has remained committed to supporting Suicide Squad through new updates that have addressed some of the issues players had at launch.
One of the biggest selling points of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s post-launch DLC is new playable members of Task Force X, all pulled from the multiverse left open in the wake of Brainiac’s invasion of Metropolis and subsequent brainwashing of Earth’s heroes. The first of these characters was none other than The Joker, who is far younger and notably less evil than the version that terrorized gamers throughout the Batman: Arkham series. Past Suicide Squad leaks have suggested that he would be joined by a female Mr. Freeze variant along with famous Arkham villains like Deathstroke and Killer Croc – and now the former has officially been confirmed.
Earlier this week, the official Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Twitter account revealed that the Season 2 DLC will go live on July 11 and introduce Mrs. Freeze as the next playable character. There will be two episodes of new weapons and other content coming in Season 2. The first of these episodes, appropriately titled “Frozen Hearts,” will add a Killer Frost-themed Infamy gear set, Firefly-inspired Notorious guns, and Parasite-themed Notorious melee weapons. There will also be a new, snow-covered Elseworlds map and a new Brainiac fight featuring Superman and the Flash.
Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League Season 2 Start Date
- July 11, 2024
The middle of Season 2 will be titled “Winter” and bring about its own icy upgrades in the form of a Captain Cold-themed Infamy set, Icicle-centric Notorious guns, and Notorious melee weapons inspired by The Trickster. These weapons will be put to use in new endgame Incursion missions and a Brainiac fight against Superman and The Flash. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will also add new costumes, banners, and other bonuses to the game’s Item Shop during Season 2.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s rocky reception has put the live-service title’s future into question, with Warner Bros. Discovery reporting that the game massively underperformed when it launched earlier this year. On a lighter note, Mrs. Freeze is finally going to make her previously-leaked debut in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League as part of the upcoming Season 2 DLC that is going live later this month.
