A newSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leagueleak suggests that another famous DC villain from Rockstar’sBatman: Arkhamseries could become playable post-launch: Killer Croc. The upcomingSuicide Squadgame already features an intriguing rosterof anti-heroes in the form of Harley Quinn, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, and King Shark, all tasked with eliminating the brainwashed members of the Justice League at the behest of Amanda Waller.
WhileSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leagueisn’t set to launch until next February, Rocksteady is already letting select players try the game’s over-the-shoulder shooting and open-world traversal for themselves aspart of a closed alpha testthroughout the coming week. While this test is largely being conducted to assess the game’s online infrastructure and check for any potential technical issues, it will still give participants a small taste of what will be in store for fans whenSuicide Squadeventually hits stores - and even a few clues about the content Rockstar has planned for it after launch.
Some of these clues were recently uncovered by mmmmmmmmiller, a dataminer known for his work in uncovering information aboutMarvel’s Avengersin the past. As reported byThe Gamer, mmmmmmmmiller reportedly shared some leaked data about the first post-launch playable character coming toSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leaguein a series of Twitter posts. The most prominent of them features a crocodile emoji alongside a series of icons representing the confirmed cast, indicating that this first DLC character could be none other than the monstrous Killer Croc.
As fans ofRocksteady’sBatman: Arkhamvideo gamesand the classic DC Comics they are based on already know, Killer Croc is a longtime enemy of The Dark Knight who suffers from a genetic condition that has causes him to resemble a humanoid crocodile. He has been a part of theArkhamseries since the first game, in which players had to infiltrate his sewer lair in one ofArkham Asylum’s most intense segments. Croc last appeared in a side mission duringArkham Knightthat saw him being experimented on by a corrupt prison warden.
Following his initial discovery of Killer Croc being a playable DLC character inSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League,mmmmmmmmiller has added that he has also uncovered data filed for two other, still unknown roster additions - and that he can’t be entirely certain that Croc will indeed be the next member of Task Force X. However, fans who remember battling against the ferocious Killer Croc throughout Rocksteady’s acclaimedBatman: Arkhamtrilogy will certainly be excited at the idea of unleashing his raw power on the mind-controlled heroes of Earth afterSuicide Squadlaunches in February.
