Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League does not look like a sequel to Arkham Knight. It's a lot more colorful, doesn't take place in Gotham, and makes no references to Batman's death in the trailers. It's understandable if you're surprised that Rocksteady made this as a sequel to Arkham Knight.

As revealed during the 2020 DC Fandome, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League will be the next entry in the "Arkhamverse." While we do not know how far after the end of Arkham Knight takes place, we do know that it is after the Knightfall Protocol. As a result, you might see Tim Drake's Robin, Nightwing, or Oracle from the Arkham series.

The biggest misconception is that Gotham Knights, a separate Batman game in development from WB Games Montreal, is the sequel to Arkham. But, Gotham Knights takes place in a separate universe from the Arkham series and Suicide Squad. While Gotham Knights takes place in its own universe, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is the only game that continues the Arkham story.
