Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League might not have done the numbers Warner Bros was expecting, but developer Rocksteady continues onward with its post-launch plans, with its imminent Season 1 – Episode 2 update introducing new enemies, new gears, and more.
Season 1 – Episode 2 is a mid-season update for Kill the Justice League, and follows the arrival of The Joker as a playable character at the end of March. As such, it’s light on major headline features, but it does bring a few gameplay additions while players wait for the next big update.
For starters, The Joker’s Elseworld map – introduced alongside the character – is “opening up further”. This expanded version adds “tricky” Green Lantern infused enemies – immune to all direct damage until their Constructs have been destroyed – and the new Promotinaut enemy, capable of promoting its allies to their next, more powerful level of mutation.
Additionally, Season 1 – Episode 2 introduces the new Out of Orbit mission. Here, players must topple corrupted Justice League Watchtowers, which have only partially phased into the world and are invulnerable to attack, by locking their control points so Task Force X can get stuck in. There’s an added complication in that enemies can exist in one of two dimensions during the mission and players will need to keep switching dimensions to take them out.
