Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League has, unfortunately, turned out to be exactly what many of us feared it would be during the months building up to its release. The first extensive look at the game resulted in so much backlash that its release was delayed, but there was no backtracking by then.

If you are still playing Suicide Squad and you like the Arkham Asylum-inspired skins, even though they're free, you will need to actively go and get them. Don't worry, they really are free and
