Season 3 is here and it’s gonna show us that sometimes crime does pay!
Let’s take a glimpse at some of what’s to come in this Season, including our new playable character, new gear, missions, brand new Elseworld, and much more… For a deeper look at what’s new this season, head on over to our Deep Dive into Season 3.
LAWLESS
Meet the newest playable character coming to Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League: Zoe Lawton A.K.A. Lawless.
Gotham’s newest and most ethical thief, Lawless, is determined to use the skills of a master criminal that her father taught her to redistribute the wealth in her hometown. She’s sending a message to the people of Gotham that they don’t have to live in fear of the city’s out-of-touch elites any longer, and her method for spreading this message is to livestream her heists for her adoring fans to see.
A FAMILIAR BASTION
Season 3 will see you returning to Gotham, but not quite as you know it. In this Elseworld, Earth held its last stand against Brainiac in Gotham City, rather than Metropolis. And after it fell, Brainiac decided he had little use for the failing city, leaving it to fall into the void. Rivers of lava now flow through the streets of Gotham, whole city districts are tumbling into an endless void and various iconic locations from Gotham pop up all throughout this Elseworld.
NEW GEAR TO MASTER
We begin Season 3 with Episode 5: Thieves, and with it the graceful yet devastating Catwoman Infamy set which introduces the new Status Effect ‘Deep Wounds,’ which causes enemies to take damage over time and bleed if you follow up with a melee attack.
On top of the Catwoman Infamy sets, we’re introducing a Rogues Gallery of new Notorious gear items.
You can read all about these and more in our Deep Dive into Season 3 but if you want to see a full list of what’s been fixed in Episode 5, check it out below.
BUG FIXES:
- A special note on missing Codex entries:
- In our last update we communicated that this bug was resolved, however this only applied to Codex entries unlocked after the update on 08/27 and the fix was not retroactive. After further investigation, and due to the nature of this bug, we have been unable to restore all Codex entries back to their original states. Rather than leave these entries missing for those affected, we have instead put a fix in place that will grant all Codex entries that are attainable up to and included in Episode 3 for anyone that has completed the main story (Defeating Brainiac in the Chapter 6 “Kill Brainiac” mission).
