Did you hear about this? Word is Rocksteady is working on a new, single-player Batman video game!
Warner Bros. Discovery President and CEO David Zaslav talked about their last 12 months – and poor performances from titles like Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League and the Super Smash Bros.-style brawler MultiVerse.
“We recognize (the games business) is substantially underperforming its potential right now” – then Zaslav said Warner Bros. will now be focusing on four games: Hogwarts Legacy (a sequel is already in the works), Mortal Kombat, Game of Thrones, and DC, “in particular Batman.”
“We are focusing our development efforts on those core franchises, with proven studios to improve our success ratio.”
Meanwhile, Monolith Productions’ Wonder Woman video game is In trouble after rebooting and switching directors early last year. It’s already cost them $100M and is years from release. Yikes.
As you know, Rocksteady is the studio behind the Batman Arkham series of games, which everyone and their dog loved. So, we’ll have to patiently wait for something new from a proven winner!
If they could make a video game about any super hero, who would you want them to make the game about?
