Suicide Squad
WhenSuicide Squad : Kill the Justice Leaguewas announced and shown for the first prison term , there was an instant comparison to be made with the films and how the plot would be different . The teaser trailer immediately showed similarities with the film , focusing on many of the same character , such as Harley Quinn and Captain Boomerang , and their appropriate scoundrel banter hold playfulness of each other . Even witnessing Brainiac ’s intrusion of Metropolis in the tormenter was reminiscent of Enchantress ' dominance over Midway City inSuicide Squad . Even though the game has a lot of similarities with the picture and could use them as a citation point , base on the merchandising material and trailers , along withBrainiac beingSuicide Squad : KTJL ’s villain , it looks like Rocksteady ’s biz is proceed in its own direction .
The firstSuicide Squadfilm released back in 2016 to a mostly minus critical response , but went on to make a significant amount of money at the box government agency . After part style with manager David Ayer , WB hiredGuardians of the Galaxywriter / director James Gunn to make his own sequel , which differed in feeling and manner .

TheSuicide Squadhas been around in the comics for decades , with the squad even featuring in a issue of video game over the old decade . Suicide Squad : Kill the Justice Leagueis the squad ’s first consecrated AAA title , however . There will doubtless be elements of the game that are shape or take over from the comics or from the recent films , but hopefully , they can stick around true to form and ward off some of the thing that have already been done .

What Suicide Squad: KTJL Should Avoid From The Movies
Looking back on both of the moving-picture show , they feature a faceless army being controlled by a higher being , the first picture show featuring Enchantress , and the 2nd film using Starro . In the lagger forSuicide Squad : Kill the Justice League , it is manifest that Brainiac has invade Metropolis and put the members of the Justice League under his control . A inane army of enemies has been done to death in the motion picture and should be avoided inSuicide Squad : KTJL , as it would make the antagonists less memorable . Even though the Justice League is psyche - see , maintaining their personality , along with bringing in new and freshJustice League heroes in theSuicide Squadgame , while keeping them within character would aid to forfend the cliché of feeling like a inane USA . forfend this would also assist give the biz its own fresh position on the DC Universe and introduce their own unique versions of the Justice League extremity to fight against .
Another thing thatSuicide Squad : belt down the Justice Leagueshould maneuver away from are quality that have been used in the films , as using the same characters would make it feel too conversant . The DC Universe is full of characters that have never been used in the flick or games before , and this expansive unresolved world seems like a consummate stead to introduce obscureSuicide Squad or Justice League member . Even though the game is using four of the same Suicide Squad members that were used in the movies , they all seem different enough that they sense like their own versions of the characters rather than feeling like a transcript from the movies , specifically when it comes to their power . The story house trailer forSuicide Squad : KTJL , which drop at DC FanDome last class , shows the Penguin run from the Squad , so Rocksteady is already showing novel and dissimilar characters not seen in the films . TheBatman : Arkhamgames are full of characters never used before in DC celluloid , so keeping that tendency by introducing more unusedvillains would benefitSuicide Squad : KTJLfrom feeling too familiar .
What Suicide Squad: KTJL Should Adapt From The Films
One thing thatThe Suicide Squadmade a big effort to achieve was trying to bring levity and fun to the characters , even when the world was collapsing around them . Bringing a sense of play to the character inSuicide Squad : Kill the Justice Leaguewould aid to not only divert itself off from the tone of theBatman : Arkhamgames , but also help make the plot more approachable for a wider variety of players . While theBatman : Arkhamgames were purposely darker , combining inspirations fromBatman : The Animated Seriesto the comics themselves in their depiction of the Dark Knight , stimulate a game that is now centered around four mischievous criminals , and onenon - wickedness Justice League member in Wonder Woman , can add a lot of tang and new quality moral force that have n’t been done before in the series . This unexampled tonic management would makeSuicide Squad : KTJLfeel more like the films and could help take out in a bigger audience .
Suicide Squad : KTJLis still a twelvemonth away , but ground on the footage that has already been dropped , the game is shaping up to be one of the most singular entries in theBatman : Arkhamseries to date , take a different direction both tonally and creatively from the game that came before . The celluloid could either function as an inspiration for the plot , or as a stepping stone forSuicide Squad : KTJLto go in a different direction , centering around few of the Suicide Squad member . disregardless of which focus Rocksteady will take , Suicide Squad : wipe out the Justice Leaguewill be its biggest and most challenging plot yet .
