10 Biggest Concerns With Upcoming 2023 Video Games

10. Battle Pass And Live-Service - Suicide Squad

The reveal of the upcoming Suicide Squad game was met with a lot of hype back in 2020, but since then, there have been quite a few issues with its production that have made people's enthusiasm dwindle a little.

It all began with Rocksteady pushing the game's release to 2023, but then some more concerning issues arose when the official game footage and some leaks from the studio revealed what kind of game Suicide Squad is behind its flashy cinematic trailers.

The inclusion of a battle pass and looter-shooter mechanics, as well as the uninteresting gameplay consisting of shooting purple orbs and watching damage numbers fly by, made people question if the initial hype was worth it. From the looks of it, Suicide Squad might just be another live-service shooter, and people are rightfully concerned about that.

Given Rocksteady's reputation and its ability to capture the essence of its source material, the game has the potential to be something special. If it ends up being a generic Triple-A experience with multiple in-game currencies and pay-to-win loot, that potential will be all but lost.
