Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Receives Final Major Update

Rocksteady Studios has released the final major content update for its live-service title, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Season 4 Episode 8, titled "Balance," is now available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. This marks the end of content development for the game, though online servers will remain active.

Initially launched in February 2024 to mixed reception, the game's unexpected live-service model contributed to its relatively short lifespan. Announced on December 9th, 2024, the end of support was confirmed less than a year after release. Despite this, Rocksteady assures players that all online features will remain functional.

Season 4 Episode 8 introduces significant new content:

• Libra Infamy Set: A high-risk, high-reward set inspired by the DC villain Libra, manipulating enemy damage output.
• Notorious Weapons: New powerful weapons, including The Silencer's Complete Silence (with a devastating Alt-Fire), Doctor Sivana's Magic Bullets (piercing and electrifying), and Chronos' Equilibrium (bonus damage based on missing shield).
• Mayhem Mission: A final battle against Brainiac.
• Gameplay Improvements: Reduced XP requirements for Squad Levels (with retroactive rewards), and adjustments to Deathstroke's Suicide Strike.
• Bug Fixes: A substantial number of bug fixes addressing various gameplay, UI, audio, and visual issues across all aspects of the game.

The December update (Season 4 Episode 7) introduced offline play, allowing players to experience the main campaign and seasonal missions without an internet connection. While Rocksteady hasn't announced a server shutdown, this offline mode ensures continued access to the game's content even if servers are eventually deactivated.

For those yet to experience the game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is currently available on PlayStation Plus until February 3rd.
