Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leauge had a rough launch, and now its second season has suddenly been delayed by two weeks.
As reported by Eurogamer, developer Rocksteady has pushed the launch of Suicide Squad‘s second season back from today until July 25. “Task Force X, we’ll be adjusting the release timing for the next season, #SuicideSquadGame Season 2 will now launch on July 25. Thank you for your patience,” the developer wrote, not giving any reason for the delay.
Unfortunately, the game’s first expansion left many players feeling “burned,” and it seems players till aren’t happy. The replies to the announcement are not positive.

“This game had so much potential but y’all just let it die with the copy and paste stuff,” one player wrote. “Worst support for the game I have ever seen in my life, literally everything is delayed,” stated another.
One player suggested the team “just stop the support and cut the losses. It’s obvious your skeleton crew can’t keep up, so you might as well just pull the plug sooner rather than later. It’s embarrassing.”
Unfortunately, Suicide Squad failed to live up to Warner Bros. expectations, but the company has still decided it is going to pivot away from “volatile” triple-A games and will instead focus on more live-service titles. That hasn’t gone well for Suicide Squad, but the company seems to be banking on a future live-service game being a hit.
The next major release coming from Warner Bros. is Wonder Woman, and players have been reassured that it is going to be single-player game rather than a live-service one.
In other news, the co-creator of the original Fallout game has shared his theory on why there are so few of the iconic Vaults scattered throughout the game’s post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland.
