Rocksteady Studios, the creator of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, announced further layoffs in late 2024, impacting programmers, artists, and testers. This follows September's layoffs which halved the testing team's size.

The studio has struggled with the game's poor reception and significant financial losses (approximately $200 million, according to Warner Bros.). No further updates are planned for 2025, though servers will remain active.

These cuts weren't limited to Rocksteady; Games Montreal, another Warner Bros. studio, also experienced layoffs (99 employees) in December.

The game's early access launch further exacerbated the situation. Players encountered numerous bugs, server outages, and even a story spoiler. Negative reviews from major gaming publications contributed to a massive 791% surge in refund requests (per McLuck analytics).

Rocksteady's future projects remain unannounced.
