Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is the canonical sequel to the Batman: Arkham series, meaning the co-op shooter could answer some unresolved questions from the last series. The Batman: Arkham series took the gaming industry by storm, swiftly becoming one of the most popular superhero game series in the modern age. As the games expanded to an open-world format and introduced dozens of new characters, Batman underwent numerous adventures and storylines throughout Gotham City. Unfortunately, many of these characters didn't receive the concentrated development they did in comic books, television shows, or movies, and WB Games placed many more on the backburners. Easter Eggs and hidden dialogue filled some gaps, but Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League's story could resolve many unanswered questions.
TheSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League game takes place in Metropolis and the activities of the larger superhero community. Brainiac, an extraterrestrial villain responsible for Krypton's destruction (in some universes), attacks Metropolis and appears to take control of the Justice League's minds. After a traditional military response fails, Amanda Waller mobilizes Task Force X (aka the Suicide Squad) to eliminate Brainiac's most powerful targets, including Superman, Flash, and Green Lantern. Players can choose one of four characters to play: Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark, and Captain Boomerang. While the first two characters appeared in the Batman: Arkham series, King Shark and Captain Boomerang are experiencing their DC video game debuts in the upcoming title. However, the inclusion of two Gotham-based supervillains could bode well for several resolved plotlines.
