So, it’s official… the final chapter of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is here, and it feels like we should all gather around for a bittersweet farewell. After an unexpected rollercoaster ride filled with delays and mixed reviews.
The last major update has rolled out, marking the end of Season 4. Rocksteady Studios revealed that this would be the final season back in December. So, here we are now, saying goodbye to epic battles against Brainiac as Season 4 Episode 8 launches today.
TLDR:
- Final Content Update: Season 4 Episode 8 launched today.
- Online Features: Remain active for co-op play post-update.
- Offline Mode: Access the main story and seasonal content without the internet required.
“While Season 4 Episode 8 will mark the final battle against Brainiac,” Rocksteady stated, “all online features will continue to be available.” You and your pals can keep teaming up for co-op shenanigans after Episode 8 drops. It’s not too shabby if you still want to wreak some havoc in Gotham with friends!
If you’re feeling like flying solo or dodging those pesky internet connection issues, fear not! The newly released offline mode opens access to the primary story campaign and all that post-launch seasonal content without needing an internet lifeline. That’s a solid option for those marathon gaming sessions when you want peace.

It’s no secret that this game faced challenges, from being announced with great fanfare to stumbling at launch. Following its release last February to lukewarm reviews, it became clear that things weren’t going as planned, especially considering Warner was left nursing a hefty $200 million loss on this one.
Suicide Squad is currently featured as one of January’s PlayStation Plus Essential games, but whether this will breathe new life into it remains to be seen.
The future looks cloudy for Rocksteady, too; whispers about their involvement in developing an unannounced Hogwarts Legacy Director’s Cut have surfaced. However, it’s hard to ignore that they’ve also seen some tough times lately. The studio reportedly went through layoffs last summer and again just before Christmas. Yikes!
This development invites us to ponder what might come next. Will audiences pick up where they left off or fade into memory? Let’s hope players find joy in what remains while proving that every ending can spark new beginnings in gaming lore. What are your thoughts on this closure? Did you enjoy your time with Suicide Squad, or did you find it lacking?
