Suicide Squad Season 2 Delayed Just 2 Days Before Release – What Happened?

It was just two days before the highly anticipated release of Suicide Squad’s second season when the development team announced a last-minute delay. The new season, which was supposed to introduce Mrs. Freeze, will now launch on July 25 instead of July 11 as originally planned.

The announcement was made on Twitter, but it was met with negative responses from fans who were disappointed with both the delay and the lack of communication from the developer, Rocksteady. The studio had previously stated that they would only share updates when there was significant news to announce, but there had been little communication since then.

The decision to delay the release just five days after announcing the date has raised concerns about the development process behind the game. With issues like the lack of an offline mode, the presence of Denuvo, and significant financial losses for Warner, the future of Suicide Squad is uncertain.

Currently, the number of players on Steam is low, which is not ideal for a big-budget live service game. The delay of the second season only adds to the challenges that Rocksteady faces in turning the game around. While WB Games has committed to completing the currently announced roadmap for Suicide Squad, there are doubts about the game’s future success.

I have reached out to WB Games for more information on the reason for the delay and will provide an update if I receive a response. Stay tuned for the latest news and updates from the PC Gamer team.
