Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League promises a brand new superhero experience

Suicide Squad.

The iconic heroes of the Justice League have gone bad, and now it's up to an unlikely array of villains to save the day in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

The follow-up to Rocksteady Studio’s Batman: Arkham series, a trilogy that helped define the modern superhero game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League makes a bit of a departure from the Gotham City that fans of the World's Greatest Detective have grown used to. Set in the more colourful, more chaotic city of Metropolis, held hostage by the threat of arch-villain Brainiac, it won't be the superheroes you're used to who'll be coming to the rescue.

Instead, Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, King Shark, and Deadshot will be taking the stage in their attempt to put down the greatest heroes of the DC universe. Each sporting their own unique style, these four antiheroes will be turning a huge, open-world version of Metropolis into their own personal playground. Enhanced traversal combines with free-roaming exploration and unprecedented combat verticality, allowing you to see off your enemies however you see fit.

As Harley Quinn, you'll use your acrobatic skill and fast-paced attacks to harry your foes from above. As Deadshot, you'll use precision to hit them where it hurts. As Captain Boomerang, your bursts of super speed will ensure that your enemies will never know what hit them, all while King Shark closes the gap to brutalize whoever's left. With the ability to swap between all four playable characters at will, you'll always feel part of a full-fledged super team, your allies fighting alongside you, ready for you to jump into their shoes whenever the action calls for it.

Building on arguably one of the most iconic superhero game franchises of all time, from one of the British game development scenes's most famous studios, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League gives you a chance to experience an unmissable story campaign as you face down the likes of Batman, Green Arrow, Flash, Wonder Woman, and even Superman himself. But those familiar faces aren't likely to be around for long, as this unique narrative tasks you with eliminating them one by one - after all, it's called 'Kill the Justice League' for a reason.

Whether by speed, elegance, precision, or brute strength, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will give you the tools to save Metropolis your way when it releases on PS5, on February 2. Get the Rogue Outfits pack now exclusively with Digital Pre-Order on PS5.
