February is a stacked month for gamers. Not only is there Persona 3 Reload, the return of the real Lara Croft, and more Final Fantasy VII goodness, but there’s also the arrival of the long-anticipated Suicide Squad KTJL video game. Here is the release date and time countdown for when Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League early access will come out to play on PS5, Xbox, and PC.

The Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League game is very divisive ahead of launch. Leakers and alpha players have defended the game against negative previews, but there is concern online that the game will be another Marvel’s Avengers. Yet, despite the obvious concern, there is also hope because it’s developed by the beloved studio behind the Batman Arkham games, Rocksteady. If you’re committed to buying the game, you can preload very soon.

Not only can you preload, but the release date and time are sooner than you think especially if you buy the most expensive edition to get early access.

Suicide Squad Kill The Justice game release date

The release date for the Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League video game is January 30th for early access and February 2nd for Standard. It’s been a very long wait for the game to finally arrive as the first trailer arrived in 2020 and there were delays into spring 2023 before ultimately getting delayed to February 2024.

Since its announcement, there has been division online over the live service model and the inclusion of a battle pass. Not only that, but an online connection is also fundamental to playing at all come launch. But, as noted in the official FAQ, the battle pass is simply for skins and cosmetics, meanwhile, an offline mode will arrive for free sometime post-launch.

When does the Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League game come out?

The release date and time countdown for when the Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League early access will come out is 9 PM PT on January 29th, and 12 AM ET/ 12 AM GMT on January 30th. These are the official launch hours for PS5 and Xbox. As for PC through Steam, early access launches on January 30th at 10 AM PT/ 1 PM ET/ 6 PM GMT.

All of the above launch hours come courtesy of the official suicidesquadRS Twitter account. As for the Standard release, the launch times are the same but on February 1st and 2nd respectively.

Do you need PS Plus or Game Pass to play KTJL?

Per the official FAQ, you do not need a PS Plus subscription on PS5 or a Game Pass Core membership on Xbox to play the Suicide Squad game. This is good news that needs reiterating because of the required internet connection at launch even for single-player.

However, while you do not need either membership to play the game alone, you do require the subscriptions to play online. The multiplayer consists of four-player co-op where you and friends get to fill the shoes of Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, King Shark, and Deadshot.

In other Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League news, the voice actor and face model for Wonder Woman has been revealed. In addition, a massive villain tease comes with a disappointing leak.
