DC Studios CEO James Gunn has recently confirmed exciting developments in the world of DC gaming. Gunn has personally met with the teams at Rocksteady and NetherRealm to discuss new game projects that will expand the DC Universe. These studios are working hand-in-hand with Warner Bros. to ensure a seamless integration between DC's movies, TV shows, and video games. Although the specifics of these projects are still under wraps, there's buzz about potential continuations of the fan-favorite Batman: Arkham series and a new entry in the Injustice franchise.
Gunn revealed that both Rocksteady and NetherRealm are in the early stages of development and are actively exploring crossovers with upcoming DC films. There are also whispers of a Superman game that could serve as a bridge between the first chapter of the DC cinematic universe and its sequel. While these projects are yet to be officially confirmed, Gunn hinted that we might see the first fruits of these collaborations in the coming years.
The demand for high-quality DC games is undeniable, with fans eagerly anticipating successors to the critically acclaimed Arkham series. Recent releases like Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League have received mixed reviews, and the much-anticipated Injustice 3 remains unannounced. With this renewed emphasis on quality and collaboration, it appears that DC games are on the cusp of a revitalization, promising a fresh and exciting start for gamers and DC enthusiasts alike.
