Warner Bros. Games scored a hit with Hogwarts Legacy, and the studio was set to launch another game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, in May, but it appears those plans have changed. Bloomberg reports that the game is now delayed beyond its previously announced May 26 release date. A new date was not published in the report.
Reporter Jason Schreier said the delay is no cause for concern. It’s “mainly for polish,” the reporter said. The game was originally slated for release in 2022 before getting pushed to 2023.

Now Playing: Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Full Breakout | Playstation State of Play February 2023
The game was featured during a February State of Play broadcast for PlayStation with an extended gameplay demo. Some people didn’t like the game’s live-service approach. But Schreier said the game began as a games-as-a-service title and will launch under that business model and setup.
GameSpot has reached out to WB Games for comment.
WB’s first big game of 2023, Hogwarts Legacy, sold 12 million copies and drove $850 million in revenue after its first two weeks. The game’s huge commercial success demonstrates the massive and ongoing appeal of the Harry Potter series, according to WB.
Kill the Justice League is being developed by Rocksteady, the studio behind the Batman: Arkham series. This canonically takes place in the same universe, but ventures outside of Gotham and into Metropolis. The story centers around Task Force X, aka the Suicide Squad, being deployed to stop the Justice League after it’s taken over by Brainiac. It will also feature the late voice actor Kevin Conroy, reprising his role as Batman for one of his last performances.
