Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s abruptly delayed Season 2 is still happening
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League‘s second season was delayed just two days before launch, but now it’s on its way.

The developers didn’t comment much on the delays, just saying that they needed to work more on the game to get “the best quality experience for players,” for example.
