168澳洲幸运5𓄧开奖网:Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will be receiving one major final update in January, which will also spell the end for support for 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Rocksteady's live-service looter shooter. , Rocksteady revealed that the game will officially see its support end with Episode 8, though all onꦜline features will continue to be available.
The announcement follows re💖cent news of Deathstroke being the game's Season 4 DLC addition, as well as confirmation 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:that the long-awaited offline mode will also be coming to the game. With the෴ updates, it brings to an end one of the bigge🥃st stories in gaming in 2024.
The Pandemic Tricked Publisﷺhers Into Thinking Live Service Games 🍌Were A Good Idea
The success of titles like Among Us and Valheim during the early pandemic did not accurately represent the long-terꦇm appetite for games as a service.
Suicide Squad Was A Major Miss
Originally released on February 2, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League did not launch to critical acclaim. Our own Stacey Henley gave it a 2.5/5, writing in part, "This might be the most rinse and repea🎃t a game of this stature has ever rinsed and repeated."
In the months following, Suicide Squad continued to round out its post-launch support 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:with the addition of The Joker, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mrs. Freeze, Lawless and now Deathstroke. Neither DLC addi🙈tion was particularly well-received, w෴ith many criticizing their individual origins, as well as 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the plot twists 🃏that were folded into the ga♛me.
. All the while, the game's player bas𝔉e continued to dwindle, with fewer than 250 p🔴layers during Season 3's initial launch. Recently, the 😼game did experience a sligꦍht uptick in player count, though that likely had to do with the game's massive discounts.
Prior to Monday's announcement, Warner Bros. remained m🀅um on future support of the title beyond its outlined Year 1 roadmap. Evidently, there was ✤nothing left to announce, as the game will see its support end a month before its one-year anniversary.
Bl𝓰ack Ops 6 Using Generative AI Is Inexcusable
Necroclaus is just one example of Activision Blizzard ap෴parently using the tech to cut corners.
