We’re bad guys. Taking down servers is what we do!
Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League game, the long-awaited new project from the makers of the Batman: Arkham games, is launching imminently with an online component that will allow players to team up via co-op.
But what do we know about its server status?
Oddly enough, the game seems to have caused a stir before it even launched, with the lack of review coverage among the gaming media causing some eyebrows to raise.
And with the Suicide Squad early access period launching soon, it looks like paying customers and members of the press will be jumping in at the same time on this one.
As with any online game, this launch is sure to test the servers! Read on to learn more about the current server situation and how you can check for updates going forward.
Is Suicide Squad down? Kill the Justice League server status now
At the time of writing, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is down, with the developers taking the game offline shortly after it launched into early access in New Zealand (which, thanks to the magic of time difference, is normally the first region to receive new games).
Rocksteady confirmed this outage on X (formerly Twitter) with the post below. It seems the game launched with a bug where the game’s story was auto-completing when players first logged in.

How to check server status for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League
If you want to check the Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League server status at any point going forward, we’d suggest checking out the game’s official account on X (formerly known as Twitter).
For now, that seems to be the main platform through which the developers are communicating directly to fans.
If you don’t find any useful info on there, it might be wise to check the WB Games official support website. There’s also an X account for that.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League does not seem to have a page on Down Detector yet, but we’d expect the community-generated outage tracking website to remedy that in the near future.
Watch this space, folks! And if you jump into the game soon, we hope you have a good time with it.
