Batman Game by Rocksteady Studios Leaked

Reputable gaming journalist Jason Schreier reports that the celebrated Rocksteady Studios is developing a new, single-player Batman game.

Specifics are limited; Schreier hasn't clarified if it's a prequel, a sequel to the Arkham series, or a completely separate storyline. However, an anonymous source suggests Rocksteady is creating a Batman Beyond title, placing players in a futuristic Gotham City. Their goal? A full trilogy. A next-generation console release is anticipated.

The Arkham series was lauded for its stunning graphics, and a futuristic Gotham could be Rocksteady's most visually impressive achievement yet. The Batman Beyond setting also addresses a significant challenge: the voice of Batman. Following the passing of Kevin Conroy in 2022, the studio might focus on Terry McGinnis or Damian Wayne, mirroring Warner Bros. Montreal's abandoned plans for a Batman: Arkham Knight sequel.

Rocksteady's previous venture, an online shooter, underperformed, leading to the cancellation of post-launch content within a year. The narrative concluded abruptly with an animated short that retconned controversial plot elements, revealing certain deceased characters to be clones.

Rocksteady is now returning to its core strength: solo Batman adventures. However, industry sources caution that the new game is still years from release.
