Spotted by Comics Alliance, during a session at San Diego Comic Con DC Comics’ chief creative officer (and Green Lantern writer) Geoff Johns let slip that a “hardcore violent” Suicide Squad video game is being developed.
If you’re unfamiliar with the comic franchise, it originally concerned non-super-powered heroes fighting against supervillians, but has gone through a number of revisions, such as a World War II-era suicide squad and a black ops strike team composed of supervillians against their will. Comics Alliance posits that the game could coincide with the upcoming Suicide Squad film, which is likely to concern the most current incarnation of the Suicide Squad as a squad of imprisoned supervillians.
