Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League disappoints with player numbers

The release of “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League” marked an important milestone for Warner Bros. Games and the anti-hero game developed by Rocksteady. The project was announced to much fanfare and high expectations. Players take on the roles of Harley Quinn, Deadshot, King Shark and Captain Boomerang. They are up against none other than Superman, Batman and other top-class DC superheroes. However, despite its great potential and long development time, the game did not turn out to be the success that was hoped for.

Failed to live up to expectations

Warner Bros. Discovery Chief Financial Officer, Gunnar Wiedenfels, expressed his disappointment with the performance of “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League” during a conference call. The game did not meet expectations and thus contributed to a difficult year-on-year comparison in the first quarter. Although specific figures were not provided, the player numbers and feedback from the community suggest that the commercial success fell far short of expectations

Disappointing player numbers and critical voices

The statistics from SteamDB show that “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League” reached a disappointing peak with only around 13,459 concurrent players. In the following 24 hours, the number of players even dropped to less than 1,000. A clear setback, especially in comparison to other titles. Despite some positive aspects that were highlighted in tests, the game failed to meet the expectations of many fans. Now Warner Bros. has a bitter aftertaste
