7 Reasons Rocksteady's Suicide Squad Reveal Was A HUGE Disappointment

2. How Much Is In-Engine, If Any?

The biggest stinger as the game portion of the event drew to a close came from realising that was all we were getting.

Next-gen graphics are suitably gorgeous and character models looked incredible (if they're in engine), but without clarification on whether these group scenes are cutscenes vs unique assets, it's impossible to say.

Point being: CG trailers tell consumers no more than a press release. We know the name of the game, the characters and the premise, but nothing else of value.

Are the models seen here indicative of what we'll be controlling in 2022, or - as is the case with almost every game - will the future see something completely different?

We have no idea because nothing denoting game engines rolled out, and that's inherently unsatisfying.
