Suicide Squad Bug

Following a report by Video Game Chronicle, early access servers for the upcoming Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League have been taken offline due to a bug that automatically completed the game the first time it was launched. Developer Rocksteady is performing maintenance and expects a delay of several hours before the game becomes available again. [Thanks, VGC!]

While the game is not set to launch until February 2, 2024, players who pre-ordered the deluxe edition would be able to enter a 72-hour early access period. Due to timezones and the launch schedule, New Zealand was the area this launched in first. However, players soon discovered that they had been awarded game completion status when they logged into it despite not having played before. The servers were taken offline soon afterwards.

A video of the game's Co-op gameplay surfaced back in early 2023, around the same time it featured at Sony's State of Play event. There is also an unrelated anime series titled Suicide Squad Isekai in production by WIT Studio, expected sometime in 2024.

Servers for the Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League early access period are currently offline for maintenance following discovery of a major bug. The game is set to launch in full on February 2, 2024, for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X, with a 72 hour early access period for deluxe edition owners.
