Greetings people of Metropolis!

In this week's Developer Update we are going to show some of the gameplay changes we have planned for Episode 2. From looking at both our own internal data, and from listening to community sentiment we've worked on a series of improvements that we believe will make for a better experience in terms of hunting for new gear, fighting Brainiac's forces, and overall quality-of-life.

Below is a list of several changes that we plan to implement when Episode 2 releases next month.


Let's talk Infamy Sets, Notorious items and loot rollout. Our intent with the distributing the Infamy Set tiers and the Notorious items across our Mastery Levels was to have a more gentle onboarding to the increasing complexity of the Infamy sets and build configurations. The intent was basically that as you progress through the Mastery Levels, the content would get harder but you would get Infamy Sets to counter that and, as long as you play into your build, you wouldn't really struggle until you hit the higher Mastery Levels. Having the most build permutations happen at the later Mastery Levels meant that we didn't really get the build meta going until very late in our End Game, which left many players wondering where all that juicy build construction was hiding.

With Episode 2, we're turning that completely on its head. ALL Infamy Set tiers and Notorious items will be possible to acquire starting from Mastery Level 1. You can still rely on the Episode Rank rewards to predictably and reliably give you all the loot the Episode has to offer, but now you have a chance to get a Tier 3 Infamy Set item drop from Mastery 1.

In addition to this, we're changing our philosophy when it comes to the Infamy Set tiers. Our original intent was that Tier 1 was the easiest to play, but also the lowest power potential and Tier 3 was the hardest to play but had the highest damage potential. Of course, the way our Mastery Levels are balanced, at higher Mastery Levels that meant that Tier 3 was pretty much the only viable Infamy Set.

Our new philosophy is essentially to flatten the power difference between the Tiers, and create space between the tiers in how much freedom they offer. In Episode 2, each Tier 1 Infamy Set will be designed around a few specific playstyles. You'll see that one or two core mechanics are buffed, and keeping uptime on those buffs won't be a challenge. That means optimal Tier 1 play will encourage you to master those specific core mechanics, and if you can handle that you'll be able to reach damage outputs that were previously only possible with a Tier 3 set. On the other end of the spectrum, Tier 3 gear will be the most flexible in terms of core mechanics - our goal is that you can leverage pretty much any playstyle using a Tier 3 set. However, it will be the most complex Infamy Set when it comes to uptime. You'll have to use all your skills to keep the buffs going, but the payoff will be that you have more freedom in which core mechanics to use. Tier 2 sits somewhere in the middle.

When Episode 2 launches, we'll be watching closely to see how this new approach to Infamy Sets is working, so stay tuned for more tweaks in future updates!


With the flattening of the Infamy Set tiers, we want to make sure there's still something to chase in the later Mastery Levels. That's why we're introducing an additional four Master grades (for a total of 5) that Infamy and Notorious items can drop with. Each grade will be more powerful than the last, and you can expect the highest (Master 5) to only drop from very high Mastery Levels.


One piece of feedback we've heard since launch is that players didn't have enough reasons to play the Mayhem missions after beating them for the first time. We think we have just the right reward for you to fight for. Introducing Corrupted Notorious items. These twisted pieces of gear have been subjected to the Elseworld's corruption, changing their unique Augment to provide a warped and seriously powerful version of the weapon. Being able to build around these Corrupted effects is a path to some of the highest power in the game, so Corrupted Notorious items will be very rare drops from the Episode 2 Mayhem mission. But trust us, their power will be worth it.

To give an example, we'll have to give you a peek at one of the upcoming Notorious items in Episode 2: Firefly's Firestorm. The standard version of this red-hot Grenade sets all enemies hit on fire, and increases the radius of your next Grenade by 50% for each enemy you Burn, up to a maximum of 200%!

The Corrupted version turns up the heat even more: it Burns every enemy hit, but instead of increasing the blast radius, instead the damage of your next Grenade is buffed by 200% for each enemy you Burn, up to a maximum of 1000%!!

This is just a taste of the power you'll be able to harness with Corrupted items, if you're brave enough to face Brainiac to find them!

You can expect more of these items too in future Episodes.


We're really happy to announce that with the launch of Episode 2, you'll be able to break down items straight from the Batpod drop in the mission reward screen. This is the first of several quality-of-life changes that we have planned for our inventory system, so watch out for more info here in future Developer Updates.


First off, let's talk Mutators. Our intent with these was to give just enough friction in the mastery level journey that you would want to reconsider your builds and push you into changing your tactics as you progress through the Mastery levels. Some Mutators were supposed to be less critical things, and some Mutators - like the Venom Frenzy Immunity - was supposed to really push you into experimenting with new builds once you reach a certain Mastery level. Essentially, we wanted to promote a more direct change in the meta to provoke new loadout configurations. It was more of a stick approach, and less of a carrot.

With Episode 2, we're fundamentally changing our approach to these Mutators. Rather than introducing friction to encourage build diversity, we're changing these to instead be gameplay bonuses! Each Mutator in Episode 2 will give you a window of opportunity to take advantage of its effect. And the gameplay benefit is something we want you to be able to build around. We don't expect you to be able to build around all 6 Mutators, realistically we want you to find the 2-3 you really like and that you can leverage with a build you like. These mutators are build enhancers. Our intent isn't that these will define your build, but rather that some of them fit the build you want to run to make it even more powerful.

A couple of new Mutators to illustrate this new approach are 'Desperation' and 'Extra Fries'. Desperation boosts your damage by 75% for every 10% of your Shield missing, incentivising a high-risk high-reward playstyle that works great with Bizarro's Undeath Ray and Hot Potato. Extra Fries grants players 1 Combo for every Critical Hit on a Burning enemy, allowing fire builds to get off to a blazing start.

While these new builds offer a variety of buffs, you'll still have to build and play creatively to get their full benefit!


Let's move on to our Incursion missions. Our original intent with these mission types was to give you all a known foundation (i.e. activity mechanics) and that the enemy types, infusion types, your character's traversal mechanics, and your build (weapon types, gear, afflictions, etc.) would provide the variety in terms of how you approach the encounter. That variety was then supposed to change up as you progress through the Mastery level. With the introduction of Mutators, your build would change, and that would be different for each Incursion mission as you progress through the mastery levels. Again, we were using more of a stick approach and less of a carrot, with friction into the system to encourage changing of builds and tactics.

With the launch of Episode 2, Lex-2 has done an analysis of the enemies in each of the Incursion encounters and will provide an aptly named Lex-2 Enemy Analysis bonus to help the Squad out. Each new Incursion mission will each have its own analysis that identifies weaknesses on the enemies, and these weaknesses make different builds really shine.

During his analysis of the mission 'Funny Pages', Lex-2 has discovered that Burning enemies will take double damage from all sources! Time for The Joker to get out there and turn up the heat.

And in 'Seaside Amusements' it seems the Squad's Critical Hits will deal 150% more damage. If they build accordingly, they might actually stand a chance...

See how you can use Lex-2's Enemy Analysis to your advantage in Episode 2!


In another quality-of-life feature for Episode 2, we'll be adding crafting recipes for most of the Legendary items you can find in Finite Crisis and Episode 1. Now you can straight up craft them, even if you haven't received them as a loot drop. That only applies to gear from previous Episodes, so the latest and greatest loot is exactly where you'd expect it: in mission rewards.

Crafting Master items
One additional thing we're adding to Crafting in Episode 2 is that there's now a chance for items to be crafted as Master versions. That means that there's a chance you'll get a Master version of an item each time you craft it, which of course is true for all crafting recipes regardless of the Episode they were introduced in. For the higher grade versions of items (Master 2-5), you'll still have to venture into the Elseworlds to score them, however!


In Episode 2 we'll be doing a pretty big balancing change to all Promethium costs across Incursion missions, Mayhem missions and Killing Time missions. This is the first step in a deeper review into our different currencies and their use, but is intended to cut down the time you spend gathering Promethium before your Squad can take on the more serious missions.

The main source of Promethium is still Raising Hell. You get a whopping 3,000 Promethium from completing the first Tier, and an increasing amount for each Tier. You also get Promethium from playing the Metropolis missions, taking out Cargonauts, from your Care Packages and from Contracts. Don't forget you get a +50% XP boost for 45 minutes from the first Metropolis mission you complete. Each subsequent mission refreshes this timer, but to be efficient you only really need to play a Metropolis mission every 45 minutes.


With Episode 2 we'll be adding an additional three Invasion difficulty levels for Metropolis, each with unique rewards and XP & Resource bonuses, to address the feedback from you all that Metropolis content is too easy when you're fully kitted out with a proper build.


All these changes will be made in the patch shortly before the launch of Episode 2. This will be the next patch for the game.

We're eagerly looking forward to implementing these changes and hope you enjoy your time in the Elseworlds until then!
Darroch & the Rocksteady Team.

Hello people of Metropolis!

This week's update will be a rather quick one, highlighting some of the ongoing events in the game, and another awesome build guide!


Until Monday April 22nd you will earn bonus XP and Promethium while playing the game! So if you've been waiting to get your King Shark to Level 30, or wishing you could spend more time in the Elseworlds, now's your chance!


Get your spook on with the new Gentleman Ghost Outfits available in the store now! These Outfits, inspired by the haunting highwayman, offer the squad a level of dapper heretofore undreamt of, as well as new Traversal Gear effects as you glide around the city. With versions for Harley, Shark, Deadshot and Boooooomer (apologies), you'll be haunting Metropolis in style.


With The Joker's affiliation for fire, and the recent buff to Burn, it feels like Diablo Blaze has been getting all the love lately. But krispyENT has an ice-cold Freeze build for King Shark. With his mixture of Deep Freeze infused grenades and devastating melee hits, this build will truly have you feeling like the son of a god.

We appreciate there are several community questions following the release of Season 1 and our plans for future Episode content. We’ll be back in touch soon to discuss our plans for Episode 2, and we appreciate your patience while we continue to work on the game. 

Thanks as always for the continued feedback.

See you in the Elseworlds,
Darroch & the Rocksteady team

Hello people of Metropolis!

Now that we're a week on from the release of Season 1, in this update we wanted to cover some of the biggest topics we've seen among the community, and provide some updates on coming changes and fixes.


We are aware of several issues that players have been experiencing since Season 1 launched and have many of these fixes planned for upcoming updates. Below is a non-exhaustive list of some of the most discussed known issues with fixes coming in our next patch.

• Raising Hell issues - A number of players have been experiencing an issue that is preventing their Raising Hell playlist from completing, despite having completed all the objectives.
  
• Invisible Joker - Some players have been experiencing an issue whereby the model for The Joker turns invisible.
  
• Black Screen Issues - Some players have been experiencing an issue that results in black screen, with audio still playing after loading into the game.
  
• Steam Deck - It appears that the most recent patch for Season 1 has prevented the game from being played on Steam Deck/Linux. While Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League does not officially support Steam Deck/Linux., we have taken steps to resolve this.

We are continuing to work on fixes and improvements, as well as monitoring community feedback, for future patches.


Following player feedback during the first week of Season 1, we also have several gameplay and balancing changes planned for our next patch.

• Craze Immunity changes
  
  • Enemies are no longer immune to Venom Frenzy
    
  • Crazed enemies take 50% less damage
    
  • Craze Immunity has been renamed to Craze Tolerance
• Pain Suppression changes
  
  • Damage reduction has been reduced to 50%, down from 95%
• Burn & Poison buff
  
  • Increased damage over time for Burn and Poison at higher mastery levels.
• Battle Pass XP gain increase
  
  • Double Battle Pass XP from missions
• Increased drop chance for Master items at higher Mastery Levels
  
• Damage reduction from Nightmare stacks gained from the Tier 3 Scarecrow Infamy Set bonus has been increased to 20% (Up from 10%)

These changes will keep the fight against Brainiac fun and challenging. We will also continue to monitor community feedback on desired gameplay improvements.

To earn The Joker through gameplay, players must increase their 'Fear Rank' (this is the name of the Episode Rank for Episode 1) to 35, by completing missions in Metropolis, Strongholds & Incursions. Once Fear Rank 35 is reached, the Mayhem mission will become available, allowing players to fight a new version of Brainiac, and once he is defeated, The Joker will be added to your Squad roster.

For more detailed information on how to earn/unlock The Joker, please visit our FAQ HERE[dcgamessupport.wbgames.com]  


We've seen that some players are a little unsure on the difference between Episode Rank and Mastery Level and wanted to provide some clarity on the role and intent of each.

• Episode Ranks and their subsequent rewards give a more predictable way to earn the gear in an Episode so you don’t have to grind through Incursion missions hoping to get a specific item. We noticed frustration in Finite Crisis where the RNG gods didn't always favour you and you ended up having to replay lower tiered Incursion missions because you were missing one or two items.
  
• If you look through the Episode Rank timeline you can see the new gear available (Legendary items, Notorious items and Infamy Set pieces) in each Episode. Our intent is to make sure you have a predictable way to earn it all and never have to worry about RNG, and you can gauge the time you needed to put into the game to earn a specific item.
  
• There are also cosmetic items in there, crafting recipes, additional Battle Pass XP and more, getting you a few extra goodies as you rank up.
  
• In addition, each Episode's Rank marks your journey and progress through that Episode. When you get to Episode Rank 200, you will have earned all the new pieces of gear that we added in that Episode.
  
• You earn Ranks by completing missions in Metropolis and, once you have unlocked Mastery Levels, it's collated from the three highest completed Mastery Levels of the six available Incursion missions.Metropolis missions = 0.5 - 1 rank, depending on difficulty (As indicated above the mission icon on the map) Strongholds = 1 rankIncursion missions = 1 rank
  
• Mastery Level Incursion mission = 1 rank for each Mastery Level above the previously completed Mastery Level for that mission
  
• Episode Rank Rewards are granted as soon as you rank up. If it's gear, it's found in the Bat Pod after completing a mission. Everything else (Resources, crafting recipes, XP bonuses, cosmetics, etc.) are applied directly to your account when you complete a mission that results in a rank up.
  
• Each Episode has its own Episode Rank which starts at 0. For Episode 1 - FEAR, the Episode Rank is called FEAR Rank.
  
• You can always go back to a previous Episode and increase your Episode Rank in that specific Episode.
  Episode Rank Rewards are predetermined up until Fear Rank 200 and then they are randomized (Gear and resources).

• Mastery Levels work the same as they do in Finite Crisis. You unlock them by completing the Mayhem mission (defeating Brainiac) in the Episode.
  
• Mastery Level is the increasing difficulty/challenge level that you can select when taking on an Incursion/Mayhem mission.
  
• Different blocks of Mastery Levels drop different Tiers of Infamy gear:1-13 - Tier 1 Infamy Sets14-23 - Tier 2 Infamy Sets
  
  • 24+ - Tier 3 Infamy Sets
    
  • All sets are re-added to the pool at 55+
    
  • Mastery Levels are used for Leaderboard placement.
    
  • Higher Mastery Level = higher challenge = more rewards.
• Your three highest completed Mastery Levels from the six Incursion missions make up your Episode Rank after you have unlocked Mastery Levels. We picked the three highest so you always have a choice of which Incursion missions to play and won't have to play through all of them, allowing you to focus on your favourites or decide to mix things up and play different ones.
  
• Higher Mastery Levels are unlocked based on the three highest Mastery Levels completed from the six Incursion missions, but the available Mastery Levels are active for all six Incursion missions. So, if you focus on playing only three out of the six Incursion missions, you will still have unlocked those Mastery Levels for all six Incursion missions (and the Mayhem mission as well).

We've seen questions about how Damage Reduction and Affliction Resistance works in the game, so we wanted to provide a more precise explanation for you build-crafters.

• If you have two items that both give 50% damage reduction, you won't end up with 100% damage reduction. You end up with 75% damage reduction. 50% from the first damage reduction, and 50% of the remaining 50%.1,000 damage with 50% damage reduction = 500 damage taken
  
  • 1,000 damage with an additional 50% damage reduction = 250 damage taken
    
  • You can never reach 100% damage reduction, unless you have an item that makes you temporarily immune to damage (Eg. Hugo Strange’s Specialization or King Shark’s Power of the Ancients).
• Enemies do more damage in higher difficulties/Mastery Levels, and our intent is that you can either lean into glass cannon builds and leverage your skill with traversal and situational awareness to avoid damage or lean into damage reduction to 'tank' your way through it.
  
• Some characters are inherently more tanky, so in Incursion missions where there's a lot of AOE damage, you might want to consider playing a more tanky character to push up your Mastery Levels.

• Affliction resistance augments reduce the duration of the affliction. I.e. if you have 50% affliction resistance, you are Frozen for 50% less time.
  
• Affliction resistance augments are not diminishing since they work on a duration basis. If you have two augments that both increase affliction resistance by 25%, then the total would be a 50% reduction in duration.

With the introduction of Poison in Episode 1, we wanted to share more details on the differences between Afflictions and Status Effects.

There are only 4 Afflictions: Diablo Blaze, Deep Freeze, Livewire Bolt and Venom Frenzy. Any effect that references Afflictions applies only to these 4. Enemies can only have 1 Affliction applied to them at a time, and applying a second Affliction overwrites the first. These are primarily applied by Melee weapons and Grenades that have been empowered by Ivy to apply an Affliction, but can also be applied by certain Legendary, Notorious and Infamy weapons (Black Mask's Bulletstorm, Sick Burn, The Cooler etc.). There are no current plans to introduce further Afflictions to the game, although new ways to interact and synergise with them will come in future Episodes.

Status Effects are debuffs applied to enemies, which can have a range of effects. Several examples include Slo-Mo, Bleed and the newly introduced Poison. Multiple Status Effects can be applied at once and they do not overwrite Afflictions,  so an enemy can be Frozen and Poisoned simultaneously. New Status Effects with different effects will be introduced in future Episodes.


We've seen some in the community discussing Strongholds and what those are, so we wanted to clarify this.

Every Episode, Brainiac renews his endeavour to control Metropolis by phasing in Strongholds that the Squad will be tasked to take out to push back Brainiac's larger invasion effort.

Strongholds are phased in chunks of an Elseworld that Brainiac is using to further his goal of terraforming the planet. In Finite Crisis, these are the Terraformers and the Artillery Cannon that you encountered in Chapter 7.

In Episode 1 Brainiac will be phasing in parts of The Joker's Elseworld and setting up a new set of Terraformers in addition to some Bug Outposts that you can take down for Resources, Gear, Promethium and Battle Pass XP.


Over the last few weeks, we have identified a number of accounts that have bypassed our anti-cheat systems to gain an unfair advantage, most obviously when taking top leaderboard spots. We have now taken action against several offenders who have engaged in practices that violate our terms of service, giving them a temporary ban and resetting their accounts. Any further infractions from these accounts will result in a permanent ban. We thank you for your patience as we continue to monitor this situation.

That's all for this week. Thank you for joining us in Season 1

See you in the Elseworlds,
Darroch & the Rocksteady team.

Season 1 is live! With The Joker, a new Elseworld, new gear, new missions and more all available for free to players who own the game, it’s the perfect time to jump back into the Elseworlds and see what the Season has to offer.

The Season 1 patch also brought with it plenty of gameplay changes and fixes, that has improved key issues for a number of players.


Following an extended maintenance window, we’re thrilled to see so many players enjoying The Season of The Joker. For those of you who were waiting to get online during our maintenance period, thank you for being patient and we hope that you’re enjoying it.

There is plenty of new content to discover with the launch of Season 1, and we hope that the fixes introduced in this patch will allow players to enjoy it as seamlessly as possible!

We believe the fixes to issues relating to logging in, multiplayer sessions and load times have improved these issues for many of our players, but if you are still experiencing these issues, please head to our Bug Reporting Website[ssktjl.bugs.wbgames.com] and report your issue.

We are continuing to look into a number of fixes that could not be included in this update, such as fixes for Raising Hell issues, further multiplayer and server stability issues and more.

Lastly, we’re aware of a couple of issues that have appeared since the patch on Tuesday, namely that some players have been experiencing disconnects while playing, and that Incursion Missions are not visible on the map for some players.

We released a server hotfix on Tuesday evening that we believe has resolved the disconnects and we’re continuing to look into the missing Incursion Missions. This issue doesn’t affect Season 1 Incursions, so there’s a host of new missions for you to tackle while we investigate.


As you take the fight to Brainiac this Episode, you’ll encounter some new Incursions! These Incursions have just one objective: kill some bad guys, but each of the three will feature a different group of enemies to fight! With such a variety of battles, it’s important to have the right gear for each Incursion, as each will require a different playstyle and set of tools.

• Laugh Riot will have you battling hundreds of Grunt enemies, meaning that area of effect attacks are just what you need! Polka-Dot Man’s Spotty Explosions can decimate swathes of enemies at once, making it the perfect crowd control for this mission, and Dr. Poison’s Maru II Injector’s Alt Fire will spread Poison to many Grunts at once, leaving them easy to finish off! With this many poisoned enemies, Pay It Four-Ward turns kills into lots of damage for… More kills!
  
• Knock ’em Dead pits you against Brute enemies of all kinds: Tanks, Bombers, Destroyers and Choppers! With enemies this tough, you’ll need some powerful single target damage to take them down. Merlyn’s Blinding Shot will deal a lot of Critical Hits, and reduce the damage that those terrifying Destroyers deal to you, and Acu-Punch-Ture will boost your Crit Damage sky high, allowing you to take down some giants.
  
• Imposter Syndrome features Infused enemies, meaning you’ll be fighting against the power of the Justice League. We can borrow a bit of Batman’s power, however… the power of prep time! As a side effect of the changes Brainiac is making to his forces in Episode 1, Batman Infused enemies are particularly vulnerable to the Deep Freeze Affliction, so equipping your gear with this Affliction mean you’ll be icing them like cupcakes. Flash Infused enemies take bonus damage after you Counter an enemy to charge your Speed Force Decoupler, so ‘Called Shot’ is perfect for a Counter build to make sure you’re always dealing maximum damage.

We look forward to hearing about your adventures in Metropolis in Season 1 over the next few weeks!

See you in Metropolis
Darroch & the Rocksteady Team

Brainiac messed with the wrong clown because this Joker won’t be upstaged, not even by an Earth-shattering multiversal being. The Season 1 Free* Content Update is available now!

*Base Game required!

Hello people of Metropolis

Due to some website issues at the end of last week, we’re a little late with this one, but we still wanted to get this developer update out to you.

The Season of Joker is nearly here! There’s just a few short days until our first new recruit joins Task Force X so it’s the perfect time for both new and returning players to dive into the Elseworlds and see what new surprises the Season of Joker holds!


Last week saw both the release of the first trailer for Season 1 (hyperlinked) and the full patch notes for our Season 1 update. The next patch will be available for download on Tuesday 26 March, and you can read the full patch notes HERE[go.wbgames.com].

We know many of you have been eagerly awaiting a patch to fix several issues, and we thank you for your patience. This is our biggest update yet, with hundreds of fixes and gameplay improvements, so we’d like to highlight some of the bigger changes coming alongside Season 1.

• Mastery progression issues: A back-end fix was published earlier this week to address the bug that prevented players from progressing through Mastery Levels in End Game.
  
• Achievement issues: Fixes for several issues that prevented players from completing all the Achievements in the game, particularly those regarding Riddler Trophies.
  
• Login issues, multiplayer issues and load time issues: Back-end fixes along with more in the patch itself to address these issues. We believe issues will be solved for a significant number of players, with further fixes planned for any players still affected.

• Brainiac will take extra damage from Counters in Finite Crisis. We noticed that defeating Brainiac was taking a little longer than expected, especially at higher Mastery Levels. We hope that this change will make the fight snappier and more intense and make Countering Brainiac more satisfying.
  
• More HUD customisation. The patch will include the ability to toggle on/off Health/Shield Bars, XP Bar, Mission Objective and more.
  
• Update to Sniper enemies’ teleport behaviour. Snipers will take damage when teleporting, teleport less frequently and players will be able to move closer without them teleporting. Go show ’em who’s boss.
  
• Lowered Mastery Level required for End Game introduction. Each of the objectives during the End Game introduction sequence will require a lower Mastery Level to complete, allowing players to experience our End Game faster.

The Infamy Set in Episode 1 will be themed around Scarecrow and all the fear he instils. One of the key new mechanics shared between the Infamy Set and several Notorious items is Poison, a devilish new way to deal damage over time to enemies and reduce the amount of damage they deal. However Poisoned enemies drop less Shield when Harvested, making for a high-risk high-reward style of play! There are also a multitude of ways to boost the power of Poison and synergise with, all waiting for you to discover.

Having now teased a couple of the weapons you can expect in Season 1, we hear that you theory crafters are ailing for some more details on upcoming gear, and we’ve got just the prescription for you.

The Tier 1 Scarecrow Infamy Set is focused around Poisoning enemies and increasing their Shield Harvest chance. This makes for both a great skeleton to construct a Poison build around, or a fearsome addition to a Shield Harvest build (I’m looking at you, Shark mains).

In addition to all the usual powerful benefits on Infamy Sets is the ‘Fear Bonus’ which provides bonus powerful effects to each Tier during Episode 1!

With all this talk of Poison you know Dr. Poison had to get involved (it’s her one thing, ok?). And her Maru II Injector is just the way to really get toxic.

The standard fire of this weapon will Poison any enemy hit, and the alt fire will deal massively boosted damage to Poisoned enemies, making for the perfect finisher.

We’ve already shown off the look of Mad Hatter’s Three Leaf Clover, but we just had to show off the Villain Synergy that comes with the Scarecrow Infamy set.
By dealing Critical Hits, you will add Hats to your collection and when you get enough, wild effects will start happening.

The perfect addition to a Crit build, a Poison build, a Livewire Bolt build, or because you just love hats.! This is just a taste of the awesome synergies and combos coming in this Episode.

The release of Season 1 will see the return of Twitch drops for Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League!

Just connect your Twitch account to your WB Games profile and from March 28 to April 5, you’ll be able to earn unique Joker-themed cosmetic items.

A Trinket, Gun Buddy and Outift can be earned by watching a streamer playing Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League with drops enabled for 30 minutes per reward.

See below for more details.

That’s all for this last week’s update. We’ll see you in a few days for the release of Season 1!

See you in the Elseworlds,
Darroch & the Rocksteady team

It's nearly time for The Joker's big debut when Season 1 launches next week!

Ahead of Season 1 going live on March 28, there will be a patch on March 26 containing many bug fixes and gameplay improvements.

Read all about what's coming in the new Season in our patch notes HERE![go.wbgames.com]

Hello people of Metropolis!

It's less than two weeks now until the release of Season 1, which means it's almost time to refuel your Jetpack, charge up your Bat-Drone or crack open a can of your favourite Australian lager as you dive into a new Elseworld!

First off though, let's start with an update on the state of the game and the next patch.

We know that many of you are eagerly awaiting the next patch, which will include many fixes and improvements to ongoing issues. This patch will be releasing on Tuesday, March 26 and will include the download for Season 1, which will go live on Thursday, March 28.

Additionally, we’re continuing to work on back-end fixes to improve login, load time and multiplayer issues. Earlier this week we implemented a back-end fix and have already seen improvements, which we think will alleviate issues for a number of our players. For players still experiencing multiplayer or load time issues, we also recommend resetting your custom key bindings and/or controller layout to default. This should help reduce these issues for more players while we work on a solution for all players!

This fix also included an improvement to matchmaking, making it easier for you all to find other players to join your Squad in multiplayer sessions.

Season 1 is almost here, bringing with it an entirely new meta with a new character, gear, Mutators and more! But in the remaining days of Finite Crisis there's still time to climb up those Mastery Levels, and we've got the perfect builds for you to get there. Three of our favorite content creators Jarv, Abrax and TripleG have made build guides to get you into the Elseworlds and kicking butt, no matter what your Mastery Level is.





After you guys quickly deduced the DC Super-Villain for last week's teaser (plus a couple of other hints for Season 1 in that video...), we wanted to give you another preview of a Notorious weapon coming soon. It took us a while to choose which weapon to show, but in the end, we had to tip our hat to how good this one looks.

We appreciate your patience while we work on fixes and content for Season 1. We look forward to sharing more information in the coming weeks.

See you in the Elseworlds
