suicide squad game review delay

Many are waiting for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, but it seems that developers had a rocky early release launch and reviewers aren’t pleased.

From server issues to missing review copies, and game-braking bugs, the launch of this game has been plagued by issues. So, what happened?

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League early access launched plagued with various issues

No review copies were given to the press

Many reviewers didn’t get their review copies ahead of launch and they were unable to review the game before the early access release.

According to the developer, Rocksteady, the game is always online, and the servers weren’t going to be online before the release of the game, thus making early reviews impossible.

However, the press wasn’t informed about that, and many were left waiting for the review copy of the game. As a result, there are no day-one reviews for the game since nobody was able to play it before the early release.

Game-breaking bug that lets you skip the entire game

To make matters worse, due to a server bug, users were able to skip most of the game story after logging in for the first time.

This affected only users in New Zealand who were the first to access the game, but Rocksteady was informed of this bug and they took down the servers to fix it.

The early Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League was surrounded by controversy which left many speculating why this happened.

This doesn’t bode well for the game, and we’re still expecting to see the reaction from the gamers after the game launches for everybody on February 2.

If you’re disappointed with this game, why not use the Xbox Lunar New Year sale to get something different instead?
