Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Releases Season 2 Update

Highlights

Season 2 of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League introduces new character Mrs. Freeze, offering unique combat abilities and traversal skills.
Frozen Elseworld, a new area, brings challenges like ice storms to the game, adding depth and danger to The Suicide Squad’s missions.
Along with Mrs. Freeze, Season of Frozen Hearts features new weapons, a stash system, and cosmetic items inspired by the villainous Toyman.

I’ve spent countless hours immersed in the action-packed world of Gotham Knights, and let me tell you, it’s been a rollercoaster ride! As someone who’s lived through the chaotic streets of this city, I can relate to the grit and determination required to save it from the clutches of evil.

The second season of “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League” is now available, introducing a fresh playable character and the theme “Season of Frozen Hearts.” In this edition, players can explore Metropolis as Mrs. Freeze, who joins the game’s original squad of four characters.

As an excited fan, I was eagerly anticipating the July 11 release of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s season 2. However, only two days before the launch, developer Rocksteady Studios unexpectedly announced a delay. To this day, no clear explanation has been provided by the studio regarding the reason for the hold-up. Nevertheless, I’m thrilled that the new season is now officially underway and can’t wait to see what lies ahead!

In the second season, Victoria Frias, famously called Mrs. Freeze, becomes a significant point of interest. Players can bring her onto their teams by finishing a set of missions named Incursions. As a mobile tank, Mrs. Freeze’s fighting method revolves around wielding hefty weapons for optimal damage at short to medium distances and using her Frozen Axe for close-up attacks. She has the unique capability to move through the sky using ice trails she generates, enabling her to engage in both ground and aerial battles. Furthermore, her Loop-De-Loop skill adds more versatility to her aerial combat options.

In Frozen Hearts, it’s not only the new character that embodies a frozen theme. Instead, there’s an additional area called Frozen Elseworld, where an ice age has occurred due to Mrs. Freeze’s rebellion against Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League’s primary villain, Brainiac. The environment presents numerous risks for The Suicide Squad, including deadly ice storms that can immobilize characters, and the creators emphasize the importance of mastering traversal abilities if players aim to endure in this unforgiving eternal winter landscape.

With the introduction of a new character and location in Frozen Hearts, players can look forward to a collection of weapons, some inspired by DC’s antagonist Killer Frost. These weapons harness the abilities of thermal shock, igniting enemies before freezing them. The Hall of Justice introduces a new function called “The Stash,” enabling users to save, categorize, and dismantle their rewards. Furthermore, both the complimentary and premium Battle Passes have been restocked with toy-themed cosmetics for various characters, all tied to the mischievous Toyman.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Season 2 Patch Notes

Mrs. Freeze is sliding into Metropolis in the Season of Frozen Hearts!

Ice to Meet You

Victoria Frias is a solitary survivor on a freezing Elseworld, having endured years alone as Brainiac’s invasion transformed her world into an icy wasteland. In Season 2, she remains steadfastly committed to staying with her cryogenically frozen spouse. However, upon joining the Squad, she may be given the opportunity not only to save her own life but also to avenge her planet by unleashing a chilling fury.

Mrs. Freeze contributes essential skills to the Squad through her freeze technology, which is mainly utilized for her impressive mobility. She generates Ice Paths in mid-air, enabling her to glide rapidly to any location, be it on the ground or at great heights. For an extra burst of speed, she employs her Loop-De-Loop maneuver, propelling herself into the midst of the action.

Mrs. Freeze has the ability to engage in battles using diverse tactics and selecting appropriate weapons. For close-to-mid-range confrontations against Brainiac’s troops, she utilizes heavy weaponry, unleashing a barrage of bullets that complements her swift and direct movement. In situations requiring a decisive finish, her Frozen Axe comes in handy, dealing substantial blows with its meaty swings. Her gameplay style, characterized by Shield Harvesting, adds an extra layer of durability for these up-close encounters.

To bring Mrs. Freeze into your team, first find her by finishing a set of missions called Incursions. Only then can you attempt to convince her to sign up.

Hell Freezes Over

In Season 2, there’s a major new development: the introduction of a Frozen Alternative World for viewers to discover. Although you’ll recognize some landmarks such as the Skull Ship hovering above and Brainiac’s troops attempting takeovers, this frozen world holds unexpected delights once you penetrate the thick ice layer.

In the world you’re about to explore, the chilling consequence of Mrs. Freeze’s desperate act unfolds. Realizing defeat against Brainiac on her home planet was inevitable, she devised a scheme to sabotage the Coluan Terraformers, plunging it into an icy freeze. As Suicide Squad breaches this unforgiving landscape, they will encounter novel challenges and perils. The biting cold triggers violent ice storms that shatter to the ground, scattering frost spikes and freezing anyone unlucky enough to be in their path solid as ice. Mastering your character’s mobility skills will prove essential in Season 2; navigating around ice storms and lava pools is the sole means of staying alive.

Ice Some Terminauts

In episode 3 of our Infamy series, we introduce sets inspired by DC Comics’ infamous villain, Killer Frost. Veteran fans might recall her portrayal in “Assault on Arkham.” With the ability to absorb heat and emit cold, Killer Frost’s gear bonuses will reflect this chilling theme. Transitioning from hot to cold, the Infamy Gear for Killer Frost requires igniting enemies first before unleashing the destructive power of freezing thermal shocks, leaving them fractured before your very eyes.

During Season 2, you’ll have the opportunity to obtain a variety of potent Notorious items in the Elseworlds. Some will be fiery and desirable, while others may be revolting and unpleasant. These items, inspired by renowned DC Super-Villains including Firefly, Golden Glider, and Parasite, will make your nefarious plans even more diabolical.

Cold Storage

In our Season 2 enhancement, we’re introducing the Stash to the Hall of Justice as a solution to manage your growing collection of items. This new feature will enable you to store, analyze, or contrast more objects, ensuring that you’re prepared for any challenge Brainiac presents. The Stash comes with an upgraded grid view and various sorting options, making it easy to locate and use your items effectively. No more uncertainty about where your boomerang is or why it’s not returning!

Dressed for the Cold

I’m thrilled about Season 2 and its new Battle Pass! In the first person, it’s: I can’t wait to dive into this new season with its fresh Battle Pass. There are free and premium tracks packed with fantastic cosmetic items. The signature outfits this time around are Toyman-themed, paying homage to our beloved mechanical genius/nerd from the golden age of toys. With retro-futuristic designs and exclusive traversal effects, these outfits will take me back to my childhood. By dressing up my Squad in styles inspired by Toyman’s favorite collectibles, I’ll be ready to bring the action to life again, showing Brainiac that playtime isn’t just for kids anymore.
