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

A new playable character is joining the Suicide Squad.

By Marc Deschamps

A new update is now live in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, as Season 2 has officially kicked off. The major highlight of today's update is that it has added a new playable character to the game's roster: Mrs. Freeze! An Elseworlds take on the iconic Batman villain, Mrs. Freeze comes from a world where Brainiac's invasion has left her planet in a dying state. The last survivor of her world, Mrs. Freeze is desperate to save her wife, who remains cryogenically frozen (just like Nora Fries in the standard DC Universe). 

Mrs. Freeze will have a unique set of skills that should greatly set her apart from the rest of the Suicide Squad cast. Her ice based powers will allow her to create Ice Paths, similar to the Marvel hero Iceman. She also has ranged weapons for attacking Braniac's forces from far away, as well as an ice axe that can deal damage up close. Following Mrs. Freeze's release, at least two more characters will be added to the game's roster. At this time, nothing has been confirmed, but rumors point to Lawless appearing in Season 3 and Deathstroke in Season 4. 

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

Ice to Meet You

Victoria Frias is an ice-cold, self-sufficient survivalist who has watched her Elseworld turn to ice as Brainiac's invasion took hold. By the time we meet her in Season 2, she has spent years as the last holdout of her dying planet, unwilling to leave her cryogenically frozen wife behind. But after being recruited by the Squad, she may have the chance to save her – and unleash icy hell.

Mrs. Freeze is bringing some much-needed expertise to the Squad in the form of her freeze tech, primarily used for her super-slick traversal. Able to create Ice Paths in mid air, she can slide swiftly to wherever the action be, whether it's down on the ground or way up high. And for a boost of speed her Loop-De-Loop will have her flying into the fray.

Mrs. Freeze can approach combat in a variety of ways, with different tools to suit every method. With Heavy Weapons, she brings the fight directly to Brainiac's forces, pelting them with a hailstorm of bullets from close to mid-range, which works perfectly with her fast and direct traversal. Plus, for when you need to really to go in for the kill, her Frozen Axe can deliver powerful, meaty swings and is further enabled by her tanky style of gameplay, focussing on Shield Harvesting.

To recruit Mrs. Freeze to your Squad, you will need to complete a series of Incursions to locate her before she can be… persuaded to join.

Hell Freezes Over

One of the big additions in Season 2 is the new Frozen Elseworld to explore. You'll find a few familiar sights: the Skull Ship in the sky and Brainiac's forces are everywhere trying to take over… but this iced-over Elseworld is full of surprises once you break through the permafrost.

The world you'll discover is the result of a final act of sabotage by Mrs. Freeze. Once she realised the fight against Brainiac on her home world was unwinnable, she hatched a plan to destroy the Coluan Terraformers, sending the entire planet into an ice age. As the Suicide Squad break into this inhospitable world, they will be faced with a host of new challenges and dangers. The frozen climate causes ice storms to crash down to the ground as the Squad completes their missions, exploding in a flurry of frozen spikes and causing anyone caught inside to be frozen solid. Mastery of your character's traversal will be a lifesaver in Season 2, as dodging the ice storms and pools of lava is the only way you'll have a hope of surviving.

Ice Some Terminauts

Our episode 3 Infamy sets are based around the iconic DC Super-Villain, Killer Frost. Lore fans with long memories may remember her depiction in the. Assault on Arkham movie. Her powers are derived from absorbing heat and projecting cold, so you can expect her gearset bonuses to channel that same flavour. From one extreme to another, the Killer Frost Infamy Gear relies on setting your enemies ablaze before unleashing the devastation of weaponized thermal shock that will see them shatter before your eyes.

Throughout Season 2 a range of powerful Notorious items will be earnable throughout the Elseworlds, from the super hot to the super gross… Themed around iconic DC Super-Villains such as Firefly, Golden Glider and Parasite, these items will ensure your schemes are more dastardly than ever.

Cold Storage

To help you keep track of all this new loot, as part of our Season 2 update we will be introducing the Stash to the Hall of Justice. With the Stash, you will be able to store, breakdown, or compare a much larger number of items so that whatever Brainiac throws at you, you'll have everything you need to tackle it head on. Plus, with a new grid system for viewing all your items and several options on how to sort your loot, you'll never be left wondering why your boomerang won't come back.

Dressed for the Cold

Season 2 is bringing with it a new Battle Pass, with both free and premium tracks full of awesome cosmetic items. The signature outfits are themed around everyone's favourite mechanical genius/loveable nerd: Toyman. These outfits harken back to the golden age of toys with retro-futuristic designs and unique traversal effects. By suiting up the Squad with styles inspired by his favourite collectibles, you'll be able to put the action back in action figure as you show Brainiac that playtime's over.
