About this game
Create your own super-villain and take that character into a DC adventure alongside the Joker, Harley Quinn and other familiar rogues. The Justice League has vanished, and a group calling itself the Justice Syndicate has taken its place. Your story follows the villains as they investigate these new protectors within an open DC world. Character selection matters during exploration. Different abilities let different characters perform particular actions or access particular areas, so changing your active character is part of finding a way forward. More characters unlock as you progress, while some require finding scattered Character Tokens. You can play alone or with a second player on the same system; multiplayer requires a compatible controller for each participant.

A promising fit for DC fans who want their own villain at the center of a character-driven adventure.
Putting a custom villain alongside familiar DC rogues could make character creation feel connected to the story. Ability-based access gives roster changes a practical purpose, especially for players who enjoy checking what a newly unlocked character can do.
Strengths
- A custom protagonist offers a personal point of entry into the DC villain ensemble.
- Distinct character abilities can make exploring with different characters rewarding.
Weaknesses
- Ability-gated actions may interrupt exploration for players who prefer to stay with one favorite character.
Who it is for: Players drawn to DC villains, character collecting and exploring with an expanding cast.
Play notes: Each participant in multiplayer needs a compatible controller.
