Like several other live-service games, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will offer players additional rewards through a battle pass of mostly cosmetic items. Where Rocksteady aims to shake up this formula is by eliminating the limited-time design of its battle pass–Halo Infinite has a similar approach–as the studio will let players complete goals on the free and paid-for premium tracks at their leisure.
Typically, live-service battle passes are up for between one to three months, and once that time has expired, so will they. The best rewards are kept right until the end of a battle pass, forcing players to grind throughout the period to unlock cosmetics and gear. This has long been criticized by players, and in a QA discussion on the Suicide Squad Discord, Rocksteady said it wants to respect the personal time of its players instead.
“We’re also happy to announce that you will be able to go back and play previous battle passes after a season ends,” studio director Darius Sadeghian explained. “We believe that our team has created some of the best-looking cosmetic items ever, and we want those to be available for our players to enjoy without fear that they’ll miss out on anything.”
