Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Patch Notes for Season 4 Episode 8 Update

MEDIEVAL GENIUS

Episode 8: Balance expands the medieval Elseworld with new locations and twists on familiar areas. Conquer The Quarry, a fortified citadel, in your quest against Brainiac. The Arena offers a new setting for combat, and statues of King Jor-El and Queen Lara Lor-Van add to the atmosphere.

LIBRA INFAMY SET
