Suicide Squad Gets Huge Update – Is It Enough To Save It? …Hell No!

Just two months into 2024 and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice Season 1 is probably the worst game triple-A game of the year and one of the quickest games to die upon release. Just a week into its release the game had already dropped to below 1000 players.

Now with the release of season 1, the game’s player base on Steam has jumped up to just over 1000 players which to some indie devs sounds great but to a big triple-A studio using an IP like Suicide Squad it’s a far cry from the success.

Will Season 1 Save Suicide Squad?

Will the game’s recent “surge” of players and all the new content save Suicide Squad? No, it will not, not even close because unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past 2 months I’m sure you will know about the game universal hate it gained upon release.
