To unlock the Joker in Suicide Squad you'll need to do a bit of grinding, or you can simply purchase him in the Store for 1,000 Luthor Credits. This page covers how to make this easy -- you need to get to level 35 so it will take some effort. The Joker was released on March 28, 2024.
How to Level Up Quickly to 35 to Unlock the Joker
To Unlock the Joker for Free in Suicide Squad You'll need to reach level 35 for the new season and fight Brainiac.
The new Season of Fear or Season 1 starts you out at level 0 for the new event. To level up quickly you should start by doing open-world events with a shield on top that has a number 2 in it as it'll offer the most experience points. After you've completed all of these, you will likely find yourself grinding incursion missions to level 35. The fastest we've found is the Knock Em' Dead Incursion mission which we could complete in about 3 minutes and 30 seconds. We estimate it will take you about 2-3 hours of nonstop grinding to get the Joker.
How to Unlock The Joker for Free
Suicide Squad: Episode 1 - Fear allows you to unlock the Joker for free but it will take a bit of grinding.
Here it is broken down into easy steps.
Complete the missions with a +2 icon above them first. This should give you nearly 2 levels toward level 35 for each completion, but in our experience sometimes you'll only gain a single level so it's best to look around the map for what gives the most experience points.
After you've completed all the +2 missions, you should farm Incursion events next. These will give you the most XP and can be completed quickly.
This is the location of the Knock 'Em Dead Incursion mission that offers 25k XP per clear on the highest world tier difficulty.
We can complete a single run of these in about 3 minutes and 30 seconds.
Once you've hit rank 35 of the Episode you should be able to take on the Brainiac boss fight. We will update this guide once we've completed the necessary grind to unlock the character. It is locked out until you've hit at least rank 35.
Once you've rescued the Joker a brief cutscene will play at the Hall of Justice. At this time there are no additional story moments beyond this story beat.
