Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and Gotham Knights, two new DC games, are set to be presented at the forthcoming DC FanDome 2021. Despite the fact that the event is just around the corner, a new teaser for it shows off new footage from both games.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, and Gotham Knights haven’t been seen in a big way in a long time. The former title was unveiled at E3 2020, and the next game from Rocksteady Studios, the creators of the critically successful Batman Arkham series, has left fans with great hopes for this new title.
Since its introduction, further details have emerged, most notably that Kill the Justice League is situated in the Batman Arkham world. According to fresh sources, Gotham Knights, the forthcoming live-service game starring Batgirl, Robin, Nightwing, and the Red Hood, is also set in a world without Batman.
New Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, and Gotham Knights footage is revealed in the latest DC FanDome 2021 teaser. ArkhamVideos, a Twitter account, has cleverly edited the video to display only a few seconds of footage showcasing the two games.
In one scene, Harley Quinn, Captain Boomerang, King Shark, and Deadshot fire at what seems to be the rear side of a bus before exploding. It transitions to another image from underneath, showing the gang forming a crosshair formation, as seen in the previously revealed new Suicide Squad character art.

Gotham Knights takes up the second half of the segment with only two seconds of footage. Nightwing stands with his back to the camera in a dimly lit alley as Red Hood approaches on his motorcycle in the first image. The last cut switches to a tracking view of Batgirl racing up what appears to be a crumbling structure of some type, but this might just be a distorted camera angle of the film. Batgirl is being pursued by some of Gotham Knights’ Court of Owls opponents, clothed entirely in black and wore owl-shaped masks with blazing green eyes.
Given that this video is part of a much bigger trailer, it’s natural that these games are only shown in small snippets. This video acts as a teaser for what’s to come when DC FanDome 2021 officially kicks out, attempting to attract fans to tune in and check it out. Nonetheless, it is new footage for a game that has very little publicly available media, so it is nice to see DC keen to show fans what it has been working on.
