Rocksteady’s upcoming action adventure game, Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League, will only be playable online, even when playing in single-player.
The official site for Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League has released an FAQ, in which it is stated that an internet connection is required to play solo or via online co-op, as the game will only run when played online. This will likely come as a disappointment for those with unstable internet connections looking to play solo as well as those who support game preservation.
According to the FAQ, a persistent online connection is required for both single player and co-op modes in Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League. On Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S, players will be required to have an Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription in order to play in co-op, while those playing on PS5 will be required to have either of a PS Plus Essential, Extra, and Premium subscription.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will be released worldwide on May 26, 2023. The third-person action adventure shooter will be available on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The game features an original story set in the DC Universe as the Squad must take on an impossible mission to save Earth and kill the world’s greatest DC Super Heroes, the Justice League. The plot picks up five years after the events of Batman: Arkham Knight, so players who are familiar with the Batman: Arkham series will see some related narrative elements pop up in the game.
Playable characters include Harley Quinn (a.k.a. Dr. Harleen Quinzel), the Clown Princess of Crime; Deadshot (a.k.a. Floyd Lawton), the most dangerous marksman alive; Captain Boomerang (a.k.a. Digger Harkness), Aussie assassin extraordinaire; and King Shark (a.k.a. Nanaue), the demigod humanoid shark and rightful ruler of the seas.
