Warner Bros. Discovery has reported that the game Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League did not meet the company's expectations since its launch earlier this year. This assessment likely refers to lower-than-anticipated player numbers, although specific sales figures were not disclosed. Despite some successes, like the Harry Potter title Hogwarts Legacy, Warner Bros. expects a challenging fiscal year in the gaming sector. Suicide Squad's player counts on platforms like Steam are relatively low and the game has received mixed reviews. Critics have pointed out that while the game has its merits, the overall experience has been overshadowed by its negative aspects, leading to a lackluster reception.
