Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad finale leaves door open for more Batman Arkham games

Towards the end of last year, Rocksteady announced that the fourth season of Suicide Squad would be the game's last. Additionally, they announced an offline mode for the game, allowing people to play through the campaign without distracting multiplayer elements. Now, the fourth and final season has arrived. 

If the few players left in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League were hoping to send the game off with a bang, then they may be disappointed. The final update, Season 4: Chapter 8, ends with a 2D cinematic narrated by Harley Quinn, revealing that the Justice League members killed in the main campaign were merely clones, meaning everyone is still alive and well, Batman included.

The game ultimately ends with Braniac being stopped and captured, and the world is restored to the state it was in before Braniac showed up. The saving grace here? The Batman we all know from the Arkham games is still alive and well, opening the door for Rocksteady to return to its flagship game series.

Whether or not Rocksteady will begin working on a new Batman Arkham game remains to be seen. Suicide Squad lost a lot of money for Warner Bros and as a result, there may be difficulties securing the budget needed for another AAA single-player Batman game.

KitGuru Says: If Rocksteady survives long enough to release a new game, fans can now hope that we'll get the Batman or Justice League game that the studio should have made instead of Suicide Squad.
