Summary
Rocksteady Studios has released the final major content update, Season 4 Episode 8, for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Available now on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC, this update concludes development for the live-service title. While servers will remain online, no further content will be added after the January 14th patch.
Released in February 2024 to mixed reception, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s live-service model contributed to its short lifespan. On December 9th, 2024, Rocksteady announced the end of support, with Season 4 Episode 8 as the final update. All online features will remain accessible, allowing players to continue enjoying the game with friends.
Following a brief server outage, Season 4 Episode 8: Balance is now live. This update introduces a Libra-themed Infamy Set, powerful new Notorious weapons, and a final Mayhem mission against Brainiac. Significant bug fixes and gameplay improvements are also included, such as reduced XP requirements for Squad Levels.
Although new content is finished, players can still enjoy Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League offline thanks to December's Season 4 Episode 7 update, enabling offline access to the main campaign and seasonal missions. While Rocksteady hasn't announced server shutdown, offline play ensures continued accessibility for players.
For those yet to experience the game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is currently available on PlayStation Plus until February 3rd, alongside The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered.
