Hoping To Delay Reviews For 30th January Launch!

Story Highlights
  • Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League starts early access on 30th January.
  • Four days before early access begins, review codes have reportedly not been sent out.
  • It seems Rocksteady is hoping to delay reviews to avoid negativity at release.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is less than one full week away. Early access for this game begins on 30th January, but the current atmosphere around it is one of confusion and doubts.

Following a wave of disappointing previews and negative reactions from the press, Rocksteady appears to have withheld review codes to avoid further damage. According to reports, four days before this launch, the press has yet to receive review copies.

Why it matters: Review codes are typically sent out at least 7-10 days in advance to provide the media enough time to understand the game and explore it for well-thought-out reviews.

According to a report, most major publications claim to have no idea about Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s review codes. This was also acknowledged by popular leaker Jeff Grubb, who made a similar remark on one of his recent livestreams.

It is speculated that this move aims to counter the current situation around its upcoming launch. Earlier this month, the studio lifted its Alpha NDA, hoping to get more positive thoughts about the game.

In a similar vein, Warner Bros may now be hoping to delay reviews as much as possible. If review codes are sent out later than usual, most outlets are unlikely to publish their verdicts ahead of release.

This would give the publisher just enough time to secure pre-orders and early-access purchases amid confusion from buyers who would typically wait for opinions and review scores.

Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League

On a more positive note, Rocksteady has implemented community feedback for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League recently. The game has toned down its focus on gear scores, encouraging more meaningful customization.

Elsewhere, the developer recently confirmed the Joker’s return, highlighting an elseworld take on this character since the Arkham trilogy’s original version already died in Batman Arkham City.

This situation could ultimately do more harm to Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League than good. The general public is never too fond of publishers and developers resorting to such tactics, so the outcome might not be as favorable as Warner Bros Games is hoping for.
