Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Bombs So Hard It’s Now Just $5
Remember when Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League launched with a deluxe price tag of $100? Well, those days are long gone. This colossal flop has now hit rock bottom, with the Digital Deluxe Edition being hawked for just $5 on the Epic Games Store. Yes, you read that right—$5. That’s the kind of money you’d spend on a fast-food combo, but at least a burger won’t leave you this disappointed.

How bad does a game have to be for a price drop this steep? Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League isn’t even a year old, and already it’s a bargain bin legend. Originally hyped as the next big thing from Rocksteady Studios, this disaster instead delivered cringe-worthy gameplay, a live-service grind nobody asked for, and a narrative so ham-fisted that it became a meme overnight.

For less than the cost of your Netflix subscription, you’ll unlock Justice League outfits, a handful of weapons, four weapon dolls (whatever those are), and a battle pass token. But let’s be real—none of that matters when the game itself is a painful chore to play.

While the Deluxe Edition is nearly being given away, the base version is somehow still listed at $69.99 on other platforms. Imagine paying full price for a game that’s a ghost town. It’s like buying VIP tickets to a concert where the band already left the stage.

Speaking of ghosts, Suicide Squad is barely clinging to life on Steam. With only 84 people playing worldwide as of this writing, it’s not exactly bustling. At its launch, the game peaked at a modest 13,459 players, which seemed bad at the time. Now? That’s starting to look like a golden age compared to today’s two-digit player count.

Let’s not forget the controversial involvement of Sweet Baby Inc., the narrative design firm that slapped their branding all over the game. Players were quick to call out the ham-fisted writing and forced inclusivity, and now the studio is scrambling to distance itself from the wreckage. Coincidence? We think not.

At this point, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is less of a game and more of a warning sign. Sure, you can grab it for five bucks if you’re curious, but be prepared to question your life choices while watching Harley Quinn shoot Batman in the face in a dingy alley.

The fact that this game went from blockbuster pricing to loose change in less than a year is hilarious, tragic, and honestly well-deserved. It’s a $5 reminder that hype and branding can’t save a product if the gameplay and story are a trainwreck. Save your money—or better yet, use it to buy something actually fun.
