Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League Reviews
Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League is a great game for a certain type of player, having all the hallmarks of a fantastic single-player cinematic experience. It features a great story, excellent voice acting, beautiful environments, and captivating characters, but it all feels cut short to service this live-service model. I had a lot of fun playing through, and I’ll likely dive more into the end-game grind. Still, I still can’t help but ask: What if?
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has overcome a rough pre-launch time after multiple delays. While the objectives can feel repetitive the excellent gameplay never does. This review will be out of date after a month or two because this is a live-service assed live-service game. For fans of Destiny, The Division, and all the loot-focused games-as-a-service titles, this is a damned good one at launch. We'll see if they can continue to grow and improve it over time.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a welcome addition to co-op looter-shooters, and while its live-service aspects may turn some away, it’s friendly enough, and promising enough, to newcomers to the genre. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League doesn’t have the triumphant flair of the Batman: Arkham series, but the game deserves a fair chance for those who enjoy the worlds of DC Comics and exhilarating gameplay loops because Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League shows what fun a co-op game should be.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is actually a good game. The good found in gameplay, cutscenes, and level design far outweigh the bad found in the campaign's pacing and some grisly missions and boss fights. Overall, I am pleasantly surprised with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, flaws and all, and will definitely be sticking around.
Rocksteady's Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League, despite all of the wailing and gnashing of teeth pre-release, has arrived in perfectly fine form. This is, at launch, one of the most polished looter shooters we've played, an action-packed superhero adventure that dishes up top-notch combat, tons of fan-service, excellent traversal (important for superheroes!), addicting loot, and plenty of surprises and shocks to boot. Yes, the story is artificially dragged out, mission types are repetitive and the store is a right royal rip-off, but the writing, the performances, core mechanics and incredible attention to detail here ensure that this is one squad of misfits who've managed to take the heat and survive intact.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a great game, which of course suffers from a few flaws that hopefully won't be repeated in future chapters of the story we'll get after release. If you're looking for a heavily comic-book-comedy adventure that you can additionally check out with your friends, or if you're a looter-shooter aficionado, then the game is definitely for you, especially since the game's future seems to be planned for quite a long time into the future.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is actually a really entertaining experience. The interesting narrative features countless jokes and one liners will have you chuckling over and over again. Admittedly the gameplay does take a little bit to adjust to, but it is really fun and chaining combos feels satisfying!
But there is plenty of wild action and adventure to be had in Suicide Squad.
I can’t help but love Suicide Squad Kills the Justice League. It’s not about to make you forget Rocksteady’s other games, but it’s not trying to, either. It’s a game that’s all about the simple joys of soaring through the air, blowing away aliens, and making funny quips afterwards – and there are far worse things for a game to be.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is the new game from Rocksteady Studios and it comes to us surrounded by controversy, both due to the proposed business model, "game as a service", and for plot reasons. But outside of all this controversy surrounding the game we can find a good story about these anti-heroes, a dynamic, dizzying and even chaotic gameplay that will make us ask for more and more action, and Rocksteady's promise that there will be no shortage of content - free - that makes the game bigger and better. It is not perfect but if we like the proposal it is worth giving it a chance, at least we are going to have fun and laugh.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League isn’t just darkly hilarious; it’s a satisfying shooter no matter which of the four characters you play.
Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad game has finally arrived, and despite some hiccups and concerns, manages to be more fun than many expected.
Crafted with an immense love of their own franchise, Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad might very well be flawed, but it bears a cross that has “fun” etched deep into the wood.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League presents a satisfactory performance as a story-driven live-service shooter. With well-designed combat mechanics, complemented by its music and solid optimization, it offers an enjoyable narrative experience. However, the game falls short due to certain flaws, including uninspired stage design, repetitive elements, and a lack of long-term engagement.

You can't think of combining the irreverent spirit of the Suicide Squad with a formula plastered around what are considered the most marketable fashions at the moment. The risk is twofold, that of creating a game that dresses badly around the protagonists, but also that of arriving out of time, to fashions that are now deflated. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League stumbles into both of these mistakes. Yet here and there flashes of funny situations emerge, the characters have charisma, the writing is good with excellent quality tips and Rocksteady know how to do their job technically. Let's hope the live service experiments with superhero groups are over here.

Underneath all that layer of daily rewards, weapons with numerical percentages, and seasons full of promise, there's a genuinely funny and wildly fun Rocksteady game. A game that has turned out much better than we expected... But he also deserved much, much more.

While the strangely gun-focused combat isn't anything to write home about, the filmic story elements in Suicide Squad are enough to carry the day, at least for the duration of the campaign. While I wish there was more to do in Metropolis, it is a beautiful setting for a game, and watching the cast of weirdos and losers skewer some of DC's finest is a guilty pleasure. While the end game doesn't currently feel compelling, there is more to come, so we'll reserve judgement until we see how that plays out. As it stands, this is a mild recommendation for a mostly painless, often funny game.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League can be repetitive, but the excellent storytelling, fun gunplay, and gorgeous visuals save it from mediocrity. I’ve had a really good time with the game, especially when playing with friends, whilst seeing the unique and dark spin on what remains of the Arkham-verse is really refreshing. It doesn’t always embrace its protagonists’ strengths, missions can get repetitive, and I don’t know if the live service aspects will keep me coming back in the long-term, but Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League still deserves credit for delivering an entertaining experience that feels befitting of the titular band of anti-heroes. It’s not perfect, but you’ll still have a good time saving the world as you kill the Justice League – especially if some friends join you for the ride.
After a long wait, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League finally came out, bringing an excellent story, competent audiovisual production, and solid gameplay. The issue is that the short campaign is followed by repetitive challenges and the game's mechanics are relatively simple. The experience is worth it for fans of the looter shooter genre and the DC universe but only with updates and relevant new additions will it be a good recommendation for the general public.
