The number of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League players has dropped drastically
The number of simultaneous players of the Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League game dropped by 85% to less than a thousand people in two weeks.
The number of Steam players for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is dropping, dropping to 915 players earlier in the week. This information was published only two weeks after the news of the highest number of simultaneous players of Suicide Squad, which was 13 thousand 459 people; Now this number has reached 2000 players and usually it reaches under 1000 people. Considering the highest number of players in 24 hours, which includes 2 thousand and 7 people, this number shows an 85% decrease in the number of players.
Of course, this figure does not include other platforms, but it can be assumed that many players have abandoned Suicide Squad, and this can be problematic for such a live-service effect. This statistic, which is based on information from the SteamDB site, shows the statistics of players and the performance of the game on the computer. Despite the many plans of the Rocksteady studio, it seems that this work will be considered a failure in the end.
This studio is developing the seasonal content of the game Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, and according to the published information, it will add the first seasonal content of the character Joker to the game next to Arkham Asylum. The Joker will be a playable character and this could bring some players back to Suicide Squad. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has had a rough start even before its release.
After exciting and capturing the attention of players, this title disappointed many with the announcement of being a live-service, having in-app payments and seasonal events. When Rocksteady released the game for people who bought the deluxe version for $100, they should have given them 3 days of early access, but at the same time, one of the bugs in the game became problematic, which notified the players that the story part of this work was over. It showed that one day out of the 3 specified days was lost.
To compensate for this problem, this studio gave 2000 LuthorCoin in-game currency, which is equivalent to 20 dollars, to all the people who faced the mentioned problem. Rocksteady hopes that with the poor number of Suicide Squad players, more people will experience the game after the first season of content is released. An exact release date for this content has yet to be announced, but the next big update will be released in March.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is now available on Xbox Series X platforms Xbox Series S , PlayStation 5 and PC can be experienced.
