Summary
The headliner for January 2025’s PS Plus offerings is none other thanSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League,Rocksteady’s latest addition to its own Arkhamverse. As a live-service game,Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguehad a really rough time appealing to the better interests of gamers ahead of its release, and even after its launch, it has failed to maintain a major core audience. Still, perhaps the fact that it will now be available through PS Plus will give players a reason to check it out, even if it’s only for a little while. At its core,Kill the Justice Leagueis a fun, action-packed game, despite being let down by its live-service model and succumbing to repetitive gameplay and lackluster level design.
Set five years afterBaman: Arkham Knight,Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguefollows the titular Suicide Squad — consisting of Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark — who have been brought together byAmanda Wallerin order to stop Brainiac’s invasion of Metropolis. Brainiac has brainwashed members of the Justice League, including Superman, the Flash, Green Lantern, and Batman, effectively transforming them from heroes to villains, and the Suicide Squad has been tasked with taking them down. During gameplay, players can switch between each of the four characters in both solo and co-op modes.
