As per earlier reports, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will have a cosmetics-only Battle Pass.
The upcoming Arkhamverse game will pick up five years following the events of Batman: Arkham Knight and give us a very different world - one that we'll look at through the eyes of the titular Task Force X. But, while the upcoming co-op RPG title was the highlight of Sony's first State of Play showcase of the year, fans couldn't help but groan after hearing Rocksteady Studios' revelation.
For what it's worth, the way the studio worded the promised new post-launch content support that includes new playable characters, weapons, and missions makes it feel like they're all coming free. However, the presence of a Battle Pass remains iffy. Although Rocksteady promises that it will exclusively contain cosmetics, it feels like we've been down this road before.
Rocksteady should've taken notes from the demise of Marvel's Avengers. Crystal Dynamics' insistence of turning a decent superhero outing with enormous post-launch content support potential into a live-service title ultimately ended up being its undoing. Square Enix only has itself to blame for the game's disappointing sales number.
