The much-anticipated game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is an action-adventure game set in the Arkhamverse.
It will let players choose from one of the four antagonists including Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, Deadshot, and King Shark. Also, a 15-minute gameplay clip was recently released accompanied by interviews with the creators.
In that teaser, it was confirmed that Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will include the controversial Battlepass and Gear System.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Battlepass and Gear system get criticized
But the gamer community (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) seems to be quite displeased with this announcement and has taken to various social media platforms to express their disappointment, especially about the Battlepass.
bro the suicide squad game looks so bad. Stop making every fucking thing a looter shooter with a battlepass

Some believe that this is a somewhat unoriginal shooter game (1,2,3,4) as it hasn’t really got anything new to offer. While others feel that with the option of single-player, Suicide Squad didn’t really need to add a Battlepass (1,2).
Reports suggest that gamers also feel put off by the live service elements. To make matters worse, the implementation of the Gear score system is further infuriating the fans.
It was also revealed that all gear will be upgradeable. And the higher gear score will help players find the better-suited weapons, but they still don’t find it appealing (1,2,3,4,5,6).
i was admittedly roped in by “kill the justice league” for the new suicide squad game, but then learned about “gear score” and a battle pass, and now that interest has instantly evaporated. too bad!
