Backlash delays back Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League to late 2023

According to the report, the fan backlash from the latest gameplay reveal has forced Rocksteady to reconsider the game's current release date. However, it's worth noting that the game will still be mostly the same. The main difference likely will be how polished it will be, so don't expect Rocksteady to overhaul the gameplay element that most fans didn't like.

The market is full of examples of why studios should reconsider cashing in on the live-service trend. The most recent and likely biggest example is Marvel's Avengers. But, it appears that developers don't intend on listening just yet.

While Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League isn't a full-on live service game, the four-player co-op title will feature elements from the divisive genre. Rocksteady promises to support the game post-launch with new characters and more missions. It remains to be seen if Rocksteady will change its mind about the live-service elements of the game when it comes out following the reported delay.
