Developer Rocksteady have detailed Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s initial post-launch plans, confirming The Joker will arrive as a playable character in a free content update accompanying the game’s first “season”.
As per Rocksteady’s latest Insider video, each of Suicide Squad’s post-launch seasons will be themed around a different DC character, with The Joker kicking things off when Season 1 arrives in March. The Joker – well, a Joker technically, seeing as he’s an alternate-reality Elseworlds variant hoovered into the Arkhamverse by Brainiac – promises unique traversal abilities and weaponry, including a dainty mace and a rocket-powered umbrella that’ll let him launch into the air, drift, and grind on buildings to knock enemies out of the way.
Suicide Squad’s Season 1 is also set to include a new Joker-themed playable environment, two new episodes – featuring new missions, activities, and strongholds – new boss fights and enemy variants, new Riddler content, and new DC Villain-themed weapons and gear.
