Suicide Squad: Major Content Release Unleashed

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Receives Final Major Update, Ending Live Service Support

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 new content development, though online features will remain active.

Launched in February 2024 to mixed reception, the game's live-service model contributed significantly to its relatively short lifespan. Rocksteady announced the end of support on December 9, 2024, with Season 4 Episode 8 as the final update.

This update includes:

• Libra Infamy Set: A new set inspired by the DC villain Libra, manipulating damage dealt and received by enemies.
• Notorious Weapons: Powerful new 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: Numerous bug fixes addressing various gameplay, UI, audio, and visual issues.

While new content is finished, a December 2024 update (Episode 7) introduced offline play, allowing access to the main campaign and seasonal missions without an internet connection. Rocksteady has not announced a server shutdown, ensuring continued offline play even if servers are eventually taken down.

For those who haven't played, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is currently available on PlayStation Plus until February 3rd, alongside The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered.

Season 4 Episode 8 Patch Notes Highlights:
