Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League new gameplay was released at Sony State of Play yesterday. More than 15 minutes of gameplay was shared by Rocksteady Studios, which featured a fight with Justice League’s very own speedster, The Flash.

The footage showed the Suicide Squad (Harley Quinn, King Shark, Captain Boomerang and Deadshot) taking on a large sentient artillery canon and several henchmen to free Lex Luthor. Right at the end of the gameplay reveal, the Suicide Squad is confronted by The Flash.
Before the speedster can hurt them, Wonder Woman swoops in and uses her Lasso of Truth on The Flash. She compels The Flash to reveal how she can stop the destruction and The Flash said that Diana would have to kill him and the Justice League to save the world.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League requires constant online connection
There’s also new information added to the game’s official FAQ which got recently published. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will be requiring an active internet connection even if you’re playing solo.
“Yes, an internet connection is required to play Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League solo or via online co-op,” says the official FAQ. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League supports multiplayer as well with up to four players in co-op online.
There was no explanation or reason provided by Warner Bros. for this decision. It raises an interesting question (as highlighted by VGC) about the game’s playability even when playing solo, should the company decide to end support for the servers in future.
It’s likely that players would not be able to play the game if the servers go offline later on, rendering the game ineffective when if you have a physical copy and you’re looking to play on your own.
While it’s understandable that some games these days require a one-off online check to prevent piracy through a DRM, the requirement of a constant internet connection is uncommon for single-player games.
