Schreier didn't disclose any reason for delay but fans speculate that WB is likely doing this to avoid competition with Gotham Knights, which has been lately reaffirmed by Warner Media CEO Jason Kilar for 2022 release in a post earlier.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League developer Rocksteady Studios released their last major title Batman: Arkham Knight in 2015. Warner Bros. Games had to delay a slate of major titles this year, due to worldwide COVID-19 pandemic.
