Leaked audio from a key story cutscene reveals the fate of an important character, while videos and images suggest the return of characters from Rocksteady's "Batman Arkham" series. Notably, a child-like version of Poison Ivy appears, despite her character's death in 2015's Arkham Knight. Additionally, a new Joker iteration, different from the one in previous Arkham games, has sparked speculation among fans about alternate dimensions or flashbacks.
The leaks also include audio from a cutscene suggesting the demise of Batman, voiced by the late Kevin Conroy, at the hands of the Suicide Squad. Controversy has erupted among fans, with debates over the narrative direction and its implications for the Arkhamverse.

Rocksteady has expressed disappointment over the leak, urging fans to avoid spoilers and refrain from sharing them online. The studio hopes players will experience the game's narrative firsthand upon its release.
The leaks have raised questions about the future of Rocksteady’s Arkhamverse, especially in light of James Gunn's recent comments on the upcoming DCU reboot and the potential for more games set in the Arkhamverse. Despite Gunn's initial statement, he later clarified that there are "no plans" for "Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League" to be the last game in this universe.
