Maf Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2020-06-22-yes-batman-arkham-developer-rocksteady-is-making-a-suicide-squad-game Rocksteady’s next game is a Suicide Squad game? Apparently to be officially revealed in August Quote A list of leaked domain names has set internet tongues wagging that Rocksteady, developer of Batman Arkham Asylum, is working on a game centred on DC's Suicide Squad. The domain names popped up yesterday on Restera, where fans noted they were registered by a company connected to Warner Bros. Eurogamer understands this to be accurate. Both projects are set to be teased at Warner Bros.' upcoming DC Fandome event in August, Eurogamer understands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryokutai Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Could be cool I suppose as long as it won't be something like the new Avengers game. Depends a lot on what kind of game it'll be and which team members they're going to pick. I'd love to have Oracle in there for example as a nice continuity nod to their Arkham titles.

Maf Posted August 7, 2020 Author Share Posted August 7, 2020 That is a very cool and creative image I hope it isn’t a game about killing superheroes because I don’t want to do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maf Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 This came off Twitter and I didn’t look for no source but here it is anyway So it’s like the Avengers game that is coming out? This could all be shit but there you go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Can you update the OP so it no longer includes the Rumour part as this has been announced now @Maf por favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryokutai Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 That twitter leak sounds like hot garbage à la Avengers but unfortunately it also makes complete sense, from the multiplayer aspect to the PS-exclusive deal. I'll be sad for a minute or two that I won't be able to play Poison Ivy in 2021 and then I'll move on to the Court of Owls game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted August 19, 2020 Author Share Posted August 19, 2020 Yeah that leaked description sounds very made up. It’s too similar to Avengers. At the same time can’t rule it out, Avengers makes it plausible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryokutai Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Well we know Rocksteady has been working on this for a while and unless you're Naughty Dog, you're not going to work 5+ years on a single player game because that just doesn't make sense for a third-party publisher that hasn't the name Square or Enix in it. I very much think this will be just like Avengers. Possibly a bit better since it's not going to be cross-gen, but potentially much more money-grubbing since WB is a really disgusting publisher that loves milking their customers to the last cent. Again, brought to you with the support of my Crystal BallTM. Let's hope for the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryokutai Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Looks very multiplayer focused and that's probably the safest but also the lamest Suicide Squad lineup they could probably have come up with. Except maybe for King Shark, who's cool, but imagine the waiting times in lobbies because nobody wants to be Boomerang. Not sold on this one. But it's also so far away still that's it's hard to care whether you like the trailer or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted August 23, 2020 Author Share Posted August 23, 2020 Looks boring. Granted I’m not interested in this game anyway but I got 30 seconds in before scrubbing through for gameplay and since there isn’t none - boring. Video game trailers with no gameplay are lame. Only exceptions if there is already a gameplay trailer out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyKurosaki Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Yeah, none gameplay trailers tell you literally fuck all. So no reason to get hyped about this yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I'd rather them release it when it's ready, and they probably felt they had to show something, but after all this time all they've got is a (decent I thought) CG trailer, eesh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Gave me strong Sunset Overdrive vibes that trailer. Only CGI but the premise looked cool enough to me, still ages away though so hard to get excited about it at all yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does everyone hate Boomerang because Jai Courtney played him in the film (because I'm on board with that) or was it perfect casting of someone that everyone hates being played by someone who is hated by everyone?

Maryokutai Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I don't know about the actor. But I also don't think people hate the character, it's just that he's an extremely bland, boring stereotype. An Australian who's called Captain Boomerang already says it all. I think this game makes the same mistake as The Avengers, i.e. trying too hard to be like the movies. There's a truckload of cool characters they could have used here. Personally I would have liked another female for a 50:50 ratio, like Killer Frost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
