Rocksteady Faces Second Round of Layoffs Following Suicide Squad's Struggles

The studio behind Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League reportedly let go of more staff across multiple departments after the game's critical and commercial failure.

Rocksteady implemented a second round of layoffs in late 2024, affecting programming, art, and QA teams, according to reports from Eurogamer.
The studio's QA team had already been significantly downsized in September 2024, with its staff reduced from 33 to 15 employees.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, released in February 2024, was a critical and commercial disappointment, causing Warner Bros. a $200 million loss.
Support for the game is winding down, with its final update, featuring an offline mode, set to release on January 14, 2025.
Rocksteady is reportedly focusing on future projects, including a potential return to single-player games, though no official announcements have been made.
