It’s evident that the popularity of video games is on the rise in recent times. Additionally, well-liked games almost always release a new installment that captures the attention of the market. The recent Game Awards 2023, which celebrated renowned titles like Baldur’s Gate 3, served as evidence. However, Rocksteady’s latest game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, is experiencing a decline as its number of players drops below 1000!
The world of gaming has gained significant popularity as of late. Moreover, gamers from all over are constantly searching for an engaging narrative game to occupy their time. Specifically, the “Superhero” genre is experiencing rapid growth in popularity. Superhero video games have become increasingly popular since the release of Marvel’s Spider-Man video games.
Furthermore, Rocksteady Studios, the creators of the highly acclaimed Batman Arkham series, have recently launched a new AAA game. It goes by the name of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Gamers worldwide were eagerly anticipating its release. However, Suicide Squad: KTJL is not performing as well as expected, with a decrease in its player count.
Gamers have a strong affinity for AAA titles. Additionally, games like Elden Ring, God Of War, and other similar titles have demonstrated the immense success of campaign games. Recently, there has been a surge in AAA titles. From Hogwarts Legacy to Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, players have been well-fed with quality gaming experiences. Moreover, these games have also managed to amass a large player base.
However, this does not seem to be the case with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, as its player count has experienced a significant decline, falling below 1000. This is undoubtedly a major setback for both the studios and the game itself. Furthermore, as the player count of Suicide Squad: KTJL continues to decline, the player count of Batman Arkham Knight is increasing.
There are several reasons behind the decline of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. The most notable ones include the uninspiring world and peculiar story elements in the game. Many gamers are not particularly fond of the way the story unfolds in Suicide Squad: KTJL. While the game is undoubtedly a next-gen console & PC game, it is not receiving much appreciation. Moreover, such unsuccessful projects are becoming increasingly common within the gaming community.
Recently, a game called The Day Before made history as the largest short-lived game in the gaming community. Within just 45 days, the developers shut down the Beta servers and refunded gamers due to the game’s poor performance and numerous bugs and glitches. Furthermore, if the player count of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League does not increase, Rocksteady may be compelled to take similar drastic measures.
