At The Video Game Awards last night, we finally got our first look at the gameplay of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and it was all that I expected and more. Being a huge fan of the Batman Arkham series, I've been wanting to team up with a friend or two and this looks like the game that'll do it for me.
Besides the upcoming co-op Gotham Knights game, this one looks to have a lot more humor to it with four of the most popular members of the Suicide Squad. You and up to three others can try and take down the most powerful super hero group in the world.
The trailer shows off each of the Suicide Squad's abilities. Deadshot's, well, good at shooting things. King Shark's the tank the group using both heavy guns and doing a lot of AOE damage as well as taking a lot himself. Harley Quinn's really acrobatic with gymnastic like moves and being able to swing around on a grappling hook. Boomerang is the speed guy allowing you to run through and around enemies doing quick damage and being very hard to hit.
The Flash is highlighted here and you can see even though he's being controlled by Braniac, he still retains his quick wit and sense of humor.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League comes out sometime in 2022 and I, for one, will be there for sure.
