For those of us holding our breath for another taste of Arkham and Arkham-related activities, getting the news about the delay for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Recently, an insider comment revealed more news on the issue of Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League’s rocky development. This insider has advised fans to not get their hopes up concerning the release date. It won’t be moving any time soon, with the release being delayed for more reasons than one. So if you’re a fan of the Batman Arkham universe like I am, we’ll just have to be content with waiting for now.
What Are The Details Behind The Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Delay?
However, knowing a little more can’t hurt. Just after the announcement of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League during February’s PlayStation State of Play, fans collectively speculated that the game would hit another roadblock. While a delay wasn’t in the cards just yet, it was soon to be. The rumor acted as a prophecy, though, because shortly after the announcement that the game would be delayed until February 2024 hit the news. While that was a pretty heavy blow to fans, this wasn’t the first time delays set everything back. It was done with good intentions: to give the developers more time to make an awesome product.
On Suicide Squad…
1) Nine months is not enough time to completely change the nature of a game
2) The team was told that the delay was for polish and not related to the February gameplay showcase
3) Lots of other factors can affect release timing (like the console makers)— Jason Schreier (@jasonschreier) April 13, 2023
A short time after that, though, we have a little insider info. Apparently, the insider, Jason Schreier, had a few comments about the imminent delay for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. He cautioned fans to not be so ambitious concerning the why’s behind the delay. In a Tweet recently put out by Jason, he gave the reasons for the delay. Cited were the facts that nine months simply isn’t enough to overhaul a game. He also mentioned that the team itself was told that this delay was for polishing purposes, not anything else in particular. That means it’s unlikely we’ll see any kind of overhaul, including the well-detested internet connection requirement for single-player.
