offline mode hits suicide squad post-launch
Dec 09, 2023 9:43 AMSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, the anticipated game from Rocksteady Studios, is adding an offline mode sometime after its release. Scheduled for release on February 2, 2024, for PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5, the game faced criticism earlier for its live-service elements and the requirement of an internet connection to play. However, the developers confirmed through their Discord server that an offline story mode would be implemented through a 2024 update, allowing players to enjoy the campaign without an internet connection.
The game takes place in the Arkham universe and allows players to control the characters of the Suicide Squad as they attempt to save Metropolis—and the world—after Brainiac takes control of superheroes like Superman and Batman. It offers both solo play, where players can switch between members of the squad, and cooperative gameplay with up to four players.
This announcement comes close on the heels of a new game trailer that was showcased during The Game Awards. The game has been highly anticipated, especially by fans of the Arkham series and those looking forward to a new twist in superhero-themed video games.
Will there be a single-player mode in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League?Yes, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will feature a single-player mode that allows players to switch between characters of the squad. Additionally, an offline mode will be available post-launch, enabling players to play the story campaign without an internet connection.

Rocksteady's decision to implement an offline mode for 'Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League' is a solid win for players craving that solo vibe without the need for a constant net connection. It shows they're listening to community feedback, which is always a good look for devs, especially when navigating the choppy waters of live-service elements.

Kudos to Rocksteady for listening to the gamer base – adding that offline mode to Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is a sharp move that respects single-player fans. It's like they know the assignment; nothing beats unplugging for a bit while saving the world, solo-style.
