This significant price drop comes less than a year after the game’s February launch, which was met with lukewarm reviews and disappointing sales figures. Despite the initial setbacks, Warner Bros. remained committed to fulfilling the game’s live-service roadmap.
Third Season Launch and Price Reduction
The dramatic price cut coincides with the launch of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League‘s third season. This update introduces a new playable antihero, Lawless, along with a new battle pass, additional weapons and cosmetic items, and more story content. Players purchasing the game on Steam will receive this update for free.

A Last-Ditch Effort?
While this deal is undeniably attractive, the drastic price reduction may be a last-ditch effort by Warner Bros. to bolster the player base before the game’s one-year anniversary in February. The future of the game beyond its current roadmap remains uncertain, with Warner Bros. declining to comment on any long-term plans. Purchasing the game at this price comes with the inherent risk of it potentially becoming unplayable in 2025 if the servers are shut down.

Should You Buy Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League?
The current discount presents a tempting opportunity for players curious about Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. The low price makes it easier to overlook some of the game’s flaws and experience the positive aspects, such as the combat and narrative. However, potential buyers should be aware of the uncertain future and the possibility of server closure.
