Key Highlights
- Rocksteady delivers the last major content update for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
- Season 4 Episode 8 is live across PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC platforms.
- While servers stay active post-January 14 patch, no further content updates are planned.
Rocksteady Studios has launched Season 4 Episode 8, marking the final major content update for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Following its poorly received February 2024 debut, the studio confirmed it would discontinue support for the live-service game after January 14. The concluding update is currently accessible on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
Despite an intriguing premise featuring DC's anti-heroes, the game's controversial live-service model contributed to its swift decline. Mere ten months after launch, Rocksteady revealed on December 9, 2024 that Episode 8 would conclude the game's content roadmap. While online functionality persists, allowing continued cooperative play, the studio has shifted focus from future development.
Following brief server maintenance, players can now experience Episode 8: Balance across all platforms. This final update introduces a DC Super-Villain Libra-inspired Infamy Set, powerful new Notorious weapons, and the climactic Mayhem mission against Brainiac. Significant gameplay adjustments include reduced Squad Level XP requirements and various balance improvements.
Though online servers remain operational, December's Episode 7 update permanently enabled offline play for all story content. This preserves access to campaign and seasonal missions regardless of future server status. The feature ensures players can revisit the game even if Rocksteady eventually discontinues online services.
For PlayStation Plus members curious about the controversial title, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League remains available until February 3 alongside The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered as part of the subscription service.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Season 4 Episode 8 Update Details
MEDIEVAL GENIUS
Episode 8 expands the medieval Elseworld with both familiar landmarks transformed and brand-new locations. Players will storm The Quarry's fortified citadel in their final confrontation with Brainiac, while The Arena offers combat challenges amidst statues honoring Krypton's royal lineage, reinforcing this dimension's chivalric themes.
LIBRA INFAMY SET
The Episode 8 Infamy Set channels Libra's obsession with equilibrium, applying Scales of Libra stacks that amplify both incoming and outgoing damage by 50% per stack. This high-stakes equipment rewards aggressive tactics while punishing defensive playstyles.
NOTORIOUS WEAPONS
The Silencer's Complete Silence set delivers 200% bonus damage against Libra-afflicted targets, with its Alt-Fire creating damage-nullifying zones while dealing 1000% amplified damage. Doctor Sivana's Magic Bullets chain lightning effects between pierced enemies, and Chronos' Equilibrium exponentially increases damage as shields deplete.
