Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Mrs. Freeze Update Live, Patch Notes Released

I’ve played my fair share of video games in my time, but none have tested my mettle quite like this one. The Batman: Arkham Knight experience has been a rollercoaster ride, full of excitement, frustration, and occasional bugs that felt like the Joker himself was trying to throw a wrench in the works.

In the latest release for “Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League“, Season 2 has begun and an exciting new feature has been introduced: a fresh character to join the game – Mrs. Freeze! This alternative portrayal of Batman’s nemesis, Mrs. Freeze, hails from an Elseworlds scenario in which her planet is near extinction due to Brainiac’s invasion. With only herself remaining alive, she is determined to save her spouse who is kept frozen, much like Nora Fries in the regular DC Universe.

Mrs. Freeze brings a distinctive skill set to the Suicide Squad, making her stand out. Her abilities involve manipulating ice, producing Ice Trails akin to Iceman from Marvel. Additionally, she carries long-range weapons for engaging enemies from afar and wields an ice axe for close combat. Post Mrs. Freeze’s debut, there are plans to introduce at least two new characters to the game. Though not officially announced, whispers suggest Lawless joining in Season 3 and Deathstroke emerging in Season 4.

Full patch notes from the game’s official website can be found below:

Ice to Meet You

Victoria Frias is a solitary and unfazed survivor on a planet slowly freezing over due to Brainiac’s invasion in her alternate reality. For years, she has been the lone inhabitant, clinging to life and preserving her cryogenically frozen spouse. In Season 2, she encounters the Squad, offering her an opportunity not only to save her own but potentially wreak havoc with her icy powers.

Mrs. Freeze contributes essential skills to the Squad through her freeze technology, which is mainly utilized for her agile movement. She generates Ice Trails in mid-air, enabling her to glide quickly to any location, be it ground level or high above. To add more velocity, she employs her Loop-De-Loop move for a thrilling entry into the battlefield.

Mrs. Freeze has multiple strategies for engaging in battles, each with appropriate weapons. She uses Heavy Weapons to launch a barrage of bullets against Brainiac’s troops from short to medium distances, making it an ideal match for her swift and head-on movement style. Furthermore, when the situation calls for a decisive blow, she wields her Frozen Axe that deals heavy damage with each swing. Moreover, her resilient playstyle emphasizing Shield Harvesting enhances the power of her Frozen Axe.

To bring Mrs. Freeze into your team, you must first find her by finishing a set of missions called Incursions, only then can you try to convince her to join.

Hell Freezes Over

In Season 2, there’s a fresh addition – an Elseworld covered in ice. Though you’ll recognize some elements: the Skull Ship floating above and Brainiac’s troops attempting to conquer, this frozen realm conceals unexpected wonders beneath its icy veneer.

In the upcoming season, the world the Suicide Squad enters is the chilling aftermath of Mrs. Freeze’s desperate move. Facing defeat against Brainiac on her home planet, she orchestrated the destruction of the Coluan Terraformers, plunging it into an unforgiving ice age. As the Squad ventures into this inhospitable landscape, they will encounter a plethora of challenges and perils. The harsh climate brings about violent ice storms that shatter upon impact, blanketing the ground with treacherous spikes of ice. Anyone unfortunate enough to be caught in their path will be instantly frozen solid. Navigating your character’s movement skills deftly will be essential for survival, as avoiding the icy tempests and pools of molten lava is your only chance to make it through this frosty ordeal.

Ice Some Terminauts

As a gamer, I can tell you that in our third episode’s Infamy sets, I get to face off against the legendary DC Super-Villain: Killer Frost. For those with deep knowledge of lore, you might recall her appearance in “Assault on Arkham.” With the ability to absorb heat and spew out cold, her gearset perks reflect this icy theme. Switching from one pole to another, my Killer Frost Infamy Gear requires me to first ignite my enemies before unleashing the destructive power of weaponized thermal shock, leaving them shattered before me.

During Season 2, you can obtain various Notorious items with considerable power in the Elseworlds. Some are fiery and attractive, while others are revolting and disgusting. These items, inspired by renowned DC Villains like Firefly, Golden Glider, and Parasite, will make your plans more nefarious than before.

Cold Storage

In our Season 2 enhancement, we’re introducing the Stash to the Hall of Justice to assist you in managing your growing collection of goods. This new addition will allow you to store, analyze, or contrast more items than before. Consequently, regardless of Brainiac’s latest challenges, you’ll be well-equipped and prepared. Moreover, with an innovative grid layout for examining all your items and various sorting options, you’ll never again be perplexed as to why your boomerang refuses to return.

Dressed for the Cold

In the second season, a fresh Battle Pass is introduced, offering free and paid tracks brimming with captivating cosmetic items. The signature outfits are based on the beloved mechanical genius/endearing geek: Toyman. These outfits evoke nostalgia for the golden era of toys through their retro-futuristic designs and distinctive movement abilities. By dressing up your team in styles reminiscent of his favorite playthings, you’ll bring the excitement back to “action figure” as you make it clear to Brainiac that playtime has come to an end.
