The much-anticipated game, ‘Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League,’ has encountered a rocky start during its early access phase in New Zealand. The developer, Rocksteady Studios, was compelled to shut down the game’s servers shortly after release to address a critical bug. This issue, which presented players with a falsely completed game status upon initial login, has temporarily made the game inaccessible as the team conducts maintenance.
Unexpected Gameplay Glitch Surfaces
Rocksteady Studios took to social media to inform the gaming community of the bug that inaccurately showed players that they had fully completed the story on their first login. The developer is investigating the problem, which has resulted in the game’s servers being taken offline for several hours. The unexpected hiccup has left players unable to experience the game until the issue is resolved.
Offline Mode in Development
The incident has reignited discussions about the necessity of an offline mode, which would have prevented such an occurrence. Although Rocksteady has confirmed that an offline mode is indeed in development, it is not expected to be released until sometime in 2024. This leaves players currently dependent on the game’s online functionality.
‘Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’ is set to be available to Deluxe Edition owners globally on January 30, with a worldwide release scheduled for February 2 across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC platforms. As fans eagerly await the chance to dive into the game, Rocksteady’s team is working diligently to ensure a smooth experience post-maintenance.
