DC Studios CEO James Gunn has recently confirmed his engagement with Rocksteady and NetherRealm Studios to delve into new gaming ventures within the expansive DC Universe. Gunn emphasized that these studios are working hand-in-hand with Warner Bros. to forge a seamless integration across movies, TV shows, and video games. Although specifics about these projects are yet to be unveiled, there's buzz around the possibility of extending the iconic Batman: Arkham series and launching a new chapter in the Injustice saga.
Gunn revealed that early-stage developments are being shared between the studios, with discussions underway about potential crossovers with forthcoming films. There's also chatter about a Superman game that could serve as a bridge between the initial chapter of the DC cinematic universe and its sequel. While these ideas are still in the speculative phase, Gunn hinted that we might see the fruits of these discussions in the coming years.
The appetite for top-tier DC games is palpable, with fans yearning for successors that live up to the legacy of the Arkham series. Recent releases like Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League have garnered mixed feedback, and the much-anticipated Injustice 3 has yet to be officially announced. With a renewed commitment to quality and a collaborative approach, DC games appear to be on the brink of a revitalizing new era.
