Rocksteady has released the final piece of content for its beleaguered live-service game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
Back in December, the studio confirmed the fourth season would be the game’s last, and now its final chapter has been released. Season four, chapter eight went live last night, and in the process wrapped up the story of Harley Quinn and her fellow band of misfits as they sought to stop the conniving Brainiac from causing mishap here, there and everywhere.
It also gave players clarification on exactly what was going on with DC’s heroes, such as Batman. Please be aware of spoilers for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League season four, episode eight below.

The final chapter of the game closes with a 2D animated cinematic narrated by Harley Quinn, revealing that – shocker – those members of the Justice League that were popped off earlier in the game were in fact clones. So yes, the actual Batman is still alive and well. In fact, it is the caped crusader who delivers that final blow to Brainiac. The mini bombs that were implanted in the Suicide Squad’s heads at the start of the game are then disabled, and Brainiac gets delivered to Waller.
However, many players are, alas, pretty disappointed by how the ending of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League ultimately played out.
“What was the point of the game if they are all alive,” reads one comment on a video showcasing the final scenes. Another added: “Because of some small clues, the Justice League not actually being dead was teased since the launch of the game. However this still feels cheap as hell.”
