Rocksteady reimburses Suicide Squad buyers for early access downtime

Rocksteady ran into some unfortunate issues with the launch of Suicide Squad into Early Access this week. Due to a progression bug that skipped the campaign and other maintenance, the game ended up being offline for large chunks of time during the first two days of early access. To make up for it, those who currently own the Digital Deluxe edition will be getting a chunk of in-game currency. 

Rocksteady has announced that after roughly eight hours of downtime for the game during the early access period, the studio will be gifting all Digital Deluxe edition owners of the game with 2000 LuthorCoins, which is worth just under £20 if you were to buy the currency pack.

As a ‘live service' game, Suicide Squad does have microtransactions but from what I've played so far, they aren't super unreasonable and seem to be priced a bit better than some of the cosmetics you see on sale for Call of Duty or Overwatch 2. You still won't be able to buy much with 2000 LuthorCoins, but you should at the very least be able to get one or two premium cosmetic skins, and if there's nothing on the store that catches your eye right now, you can hold onto them and see what arrives on the store later in the year.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is out now for those who pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition. The game launches for all, including base-game buyers, on the 2nd of February, for PC, Xbox Series X/S and PS5.

KitGuru Says: I've actually been pleasantly surprised by Suicide Squad so far in terms of its campaign story, but I'm still unsure on the open-world elements and some of the mechanics. I'll be spending a bit more time with the game over the next few days so stay tuned for a review.
