DC Studios CEO James Gunn has confirmed meetings with Rocksteady and NetherRealm Studios to develop new DC Universe video games. These studios are working closely with Warner Bros. to ensure a unified vision across movies, TV shows, and games. While specifics are undisclosed, potential projects include a continuation of the Batman: Arkham series and a new Injustice game.
Gunn revealed early-stage development and potential crossovers with upcoming films are being explored. Rumors suggest a Superman game bridging the first DC cinematic universe chapter and its sequel, though unconfirmed. Gunn indicated announcements may take a few years.
The demand for high-quality DC games is undeniable, with fans yearning for successors to the acclaimed Arkham titles. Mixed reception for recent games like Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, and the absence of Injustice 3, highlight the need for a fresh approach. This renewed focus on collaboration and quality suggests a promising future for DC video games.
