Summary
Rocksteady Studios has released the final major content update, Season 4 Episode 8, for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, this update concludes the game's live service content. While no further content will be developed, online servers will remain active.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, released to mixed reception in February 2024, will cease receiving new content updates after the January 14th patch. The decision to end support after only ten months was announced on December 9th, 2024. Despite this, Rocksteady assures players that all online features will remain functional.
Following a brief period of server downtime, Season 4 Episode 8: Balance is now live. This final update introduces a Libra-themed Infamy Set, powerful Notorious weapons, and a climactic Mayhem mission against Brainiac. Significant bug fixes and gameplay improvements, including reduced XP requirements for Squad Levels, are also included.
Offline play, a highly requested feature, was added in December's Season 4 Episode 7 update. This allows players to experience the main campaign and seasonal story missions without an internet connection, providing a fallback should the online servers ever be shut down. Rocksteady hasn't announced a server shutdown date.
For those who haven't yet 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.
