Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League Delayed
Jason Schrier has reported that Warner Bros. and Rocksteady will be delaying Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League from its May release date to sometime later this year. This move comes just comes after a little under two weeks of the game having a massive gameplay reveal at PlayStation's State of Play. This will push the game past the 8th anniversary of Batman Arkham Knight, the last major game released by Rocksteady.
The showcase received a mixed reception, which may be playing a hand in the game's delay. Although Schrier noted, that delays like this are usually for polishing up the game, and that short of a massive reboot, not much should change about what was showed a couple weeks ago.
