>Rocksteady has confirmed an earlier Eurogamer report it is working on a Suicide Squad game.
>In a tweet showing an image of a decrepit-looking Superman with a target on his head, the Batman Arkham developer revealed the Suicide Squad game will be announced on 22nd August, during the DC Fandome event.
>In June, Eurogamer's Tom Phillips rubber-stamped a domain name-fuelled rumour that Rocksteady was working on a game centred on DC's Suicide Squad.
>"I've heard that one particular phrase registered as a domain - 'SuicideSquadKillTheJusticeLeague.com' - is a contender for the game's final title, and a good summation of what you can expect Rocksteady's next big project to be about," Phillips said.
>This ties in with the poster, which suggests you can kill Superman. Or could that be Bizarro?
>Other domains registered include "SuicideSquadGame.com" and "GothamKnightsGame.com".
>So, what can we expect from this DC event? Expect to see a little of WB Games Montreal's Gotham Knights, which while unannounced has been continually hyped via various "Court of Owls" hints for more than a year.
>And expect to see very little of Rocksteady's Suicide Squad, which is further off from launch. Both projects are being developed for next-gen consoles.
I think the Skwad game isn’t gonna be too diferent from the Avengers just with more violence (if you quit the character explode) and dark humor, better graphics since is developed from the ground for next gen consoles.

Rocksteady had experience doing shooters before Arkham Asylum. I think there will be strong third person or even first person shooting elements inthe game with melee/brawl/hacknslash combat.
2022, release with few playable characters and add the rest with dlc, is gonna be GAAS like the Avengers.

Boomer mains ww@?
Blake Jackson
wasn't there a leak that said something about this among other stuff too?

WB seems less SJW than other companies, what with not using Wonder Woman as a platform to preach feminism from and listening to the fans by releasing the Snyder Cut while also bringing back Keaton as fanservice, so I dunno.
Isaac Clark
...
Dylan Stewart
Was Harley in the SS in the comics?
Eli Morgan
A Suicide Squad game should be missions on DC fictional foreign countries like Markovia, Santa Prisca, Kirai, maybe even Russia fighting the Rocket Red Brigade and Red Star and China with the Great Ten.
Dylan Sullivan
I mean it kind of makes sense. How best to do Superman in a game than by making him the endgame boss? Bringing him down could be an incredible experience.
Easton Phillips
eh... to be fair a lot of companies did that because they gave in to pressure, despite not actually caring about it or being SJW, like nintendo
Adam Martin
ATT is forcing Warner Brothers to announce all their games (except Harry Potter) to sweeten the pot for the potential WBIE buyers. Most of them will be canceled under the new ownership.
Bentley Wood
What big corporation hasnt sucked nlm dick?
Colton Barnes
Excellent, Suicide Squad has been a gold mine of a brand and has not bombed in anything its been involved with :^)
Benjamin Reyes
Rocksteady only good boss fights were in Arkham City, in Arkham Knight they dropped the ball hard.

Adam Myers
It's Bizzaro.
Elijah Lewis
How exactly is the fucking suicide squad meant to take down fucking Superman in any capacity?
Ryder Ramirez
AT&T must be stupid to sell WB Games, gaming today is more important and moves more money than movies or tv shows, especially now with the pandemic and everyone in their homes.
Daniel Sanders
>In a tweet showing an image of a decrepit-looking Superman with a target on his head, the Batman Arkham developer revealed the Suicide Squad game will be announced on 22nd August, during the DC Fandome event.
But you literally just announced the game through the tweet? In a stupid and anti-climatic way I might add, especially considering it's been 5 years since Knight.
That'd be a cool name transition for the new series
Is it playing as the justice league?
Nicholas Thomas
>Rocksteady universe Bizarro is killed off in the fucking sucide shovelware game Please no
Ian Powell
Instead of getting a kino Superman game we're getting a shitty suicide squad garbage where you fight Superman with probably some shit reason why he can be hurt like Kryptonite. After Mr Freeze fight it seemed like Rocksteady may actually be able to make that Superman game but nooo Rockshitty has to make Gay Squad game because WB is shilling that garbage IP so fucking hard for whatever reason.
Liam Myers
Yeah, the leak said Project Cadmus is involved and they’re responsible for cloning Superman in the comics with results in the 90s Superboy.
Eli Edwards
The villains are gonna be Bizarro clones of the JL.
New CEO. They paid 109 Billion for it, and have massive debts. They can't afford to keep their peripheral companies running.

"""Leaks"""
>Suicide Squad is the title.
>PS5, Xbox Series X and PC.
>Action/adventure game with heavy emphasis on customisation, combat, characters and boss fights.
>Playable characters (at the moment) include: Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Deathstroke, Cheetah, King Shark, Capt. Boomerang, Count Vertigo and Enchantress.
>Story mode and an online mode.
>Plot: The Justice League go to war with Amanda Waller and Lex Luthor for attempting to initiate project CADMUS, an operation that would result in the creation of Doomsday in order to eliminate the 'threat' of the Justice League. Waller sends the Suicide Squad to capture the Justice League and bring them back to her in order to await their 'doomsday'.
>Online: One team plays as the Justice League, the other plays as the Suicide Squad in online battles.
>Justice League roster: Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Green Lantern, Martian Manhunter, Shazam and Hawkgirl
>Harley Quinn has a variety of melee and ranged attacks using a bat for quick melee attacks and a hammer for slower, more powerful ones. She has dual pistols and a submachine gun. Deadshot is an all-ranged character, using his wrist mounted guns to deal bursts of damage and then an assault rifle to rip people apart. Deathstroke plays a lot like Batman from the Arkham games, using brute force and stealth attacks. He has pistols, a staff and a grapple gun. He also has a sword that he can use as a finisher. Count Vertigo can use his vertigo abilities to stun his enemies and then moves in to deal damage. Enchantress can use cloning, energy projection, teleportation and can even possess enemies
>Boss fights: Batman is about as powerful as he is in the Arkham games, mainly using gadgets against you. There's a really cool moment where it's like a predator section from the Arkham Games, but you're the prey and Batman is the predator. It's terrifying. Wonder Woman was really tough. She can use her lasso to grapple you towards her and then she deals damage up close with her sword. She can also block standard attacks with her shield so you have to do a combo in order to get behind the shield. This is definitely a step up in difficulty compared to the other games
>It's set in the same universe as the WBGM game
>The game uses designs from the cancelled WBGM SS game
