5 months after Brainiac let the key slip, Rocksteady has confirmed that Mrs Freeze will headline the second season of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
That is proper, not Mr Freeze as we had assumed, however Mrs Freeze, aka Nora Fries, the spouse of DC’s most chill unhealthy man. She was instrumental within the creation of her husband’s supervillain persona: His efforts to cryogenically freeze her till he might discover a remedy for her terminal sickness led to a lab accident that turned him into Mr Freeze and, whereas Nora was finally cured, she grew to become a supervillain in her personal proper afterward. Whoops!
A full character breakdown hasn’t been shared but and given the multiversal setting of Suicide Squad, the in-game character could fluctuate considerably, or fully, from that historical past—quite like how its tackle The Joker wasn’t fairly the character we’re most aware of.
(Personally, I might’ve most well-liked a straight carry of Otto Preminger, the one true Mr. Freeze—now that might’ve been wild.)
Anyway, together with Mrs Freeze, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s second season will embrace new gear and equipment units, a brand new map, incursions, and naturally a brand new battle cross.
The second season of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League comes as the sport continues to battle to search out gamers. Fewer than 500 persons are taking part in it proper now on Steam, an abysmally low quantity that is really one thing of a bump in latest weeks: By means of most of June, the concurrent participant rely remained caught under 300.
That is sparked hypothesis that WB Video games will pull the plug on the entire thing, however in June the writer dedicated to ending out the sport’s “presently introduced roadmap.” Meaning three extra seasons (together with this one) with three new playable characters and different content material.
Past that, although, it appears most unlikely we’ll see any extra. Suicide Squad was a main cash loser for Warner, and it is laborious to think about that the price of ongoing growth and assist is justified by the tiny participant counts. The sport can also be out there on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Collection X/S, so the Steam numbers aren’t the total story, however on condition that Warner pointed the finger particularly at Suicide Squad for “setting our video games enterprise up for a troublesome year-over-year comp in Q1” again in February, I believe it is cheap to imagine that issues aren’t going nice on these platforms both.
However for many who are taking part in and having fun with the sport, extra is on the way in which quickly: Mrs Freeze and the remainder of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League season two arrives on July 11.
