A few days ago when we got the teaser poster for Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad game we were pretty intrigued.
We speculated that Superman in the poster (above) was actually Bizarro due to the lump skin and seeming purple colour. We now know, thanks to DC Fandome, that that’s not the case.. although he’s not exactly our Superman either.
The new trailer reveals that in the game – full title Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League – there are four playable characters in the form of Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark and Captain Boomerang and they have found themselves in a city – confirmed to be Metropolis – overrun by Brainiac and full of evil Justice League members!
And Im so here for that!

We also learned that, unlike Gotham Knights, the game is set in the Batman: Arkham universe from Rocksteady co-founder Sefton Hill, it is set in an open-world Metropolis and is a one to four-player co-op game.
You can play single-player with the Squad filled by bots but you an go online with your friends and pick your favourite team member to suit up as. Oh, and single player means you can jump between characters.
The creators of the Batman: Arkham series are back with a brand new action-adventure shooter. The
most dangerous villains in the DC Universe have been forced to team up and take on a new mission: Kill
the Justice League. Create Chaos in Metropolis. You are the Suicide Squad.
Coming in 2022 to PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC.
No arguing, this looks gorgeous…

Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
