Fans of Rocksteady will be excited to hear the studio “is looking to return to Batman for a single-player game,” but according to Bloomberg, it’s years away. There is no word in Bloomberg’s report on what’s next from NetherRealm.

Stupid.
Arkham Asylum - 2009
Arkham City - 2011
Arkham Origins - 2013
Arkham Knight - 2015
Kill the Justice League - 2024
How are they "years away" from a legit Batman game after the success of the Arkham series? How did it take them 9 years to push out that garbage Suicide Squad game in this universe?
I will never understand how companies can look an obvious success in the face and just pass on it for over a decade.

I want a Superman game or someone else!

True enough, but still doesn't change my overarching point. It's been over a decade since they put a mainline Arkham game out.

There's not much more story to tell in that universe. Joker isn't coming back and Kevin Conroy is dead. Plus they'd have to retcon Suicide Squad.

Move on to Batman Beyond.
Gives a re-imagining of a multitude of villains and a whole new generation of tech.
Or, another idea would be to do the alternate Flash Point Batman, Thomas Wayne.
A brutal, merciless Batman with Martha Wayne as The Joker.
You could go with the Arkham by Gaslight Batman, which would be cool with the old tech and Gordon as Jack the Ripper.

I know it's exhausting but Rocksteady is completely dead largely because ti got taken over by women and gays.
Every single piece of media they are on, it's nothing but LGBT shite and feminist shite. Go check their twitter, go check their website, etc.
It's almost impossible to find a Rocksteady employee on twitter without a pride flag, a palenstine flag, pronouns in bio, etc.
The dude bros who built the studio and the Arkham games people actually enjoyed are long gone.

Joker is played out and there are other Batman voice actors.

No one cares about this.

It’s been over a decade because the studio made the decision to pivot from making solo Batman games. It was their original intent to move on to other things.
Then of course their Suicide Squad game bombed (not because it was S.S. but because folks didn’t want to play a shite GAAS product) and they realized the best way to get back in the good graces of their player base is to go back to what they are good at. Pretty simple really

Suicide Squad was released 9 years after Arkham Knight. It's definitely more than this.

Nope. It absolutely is. It obviously reeks of incompetence and not understanding your audience. No one was asking for a Suicide Squad game as a follow up to Arkham Knight, much less a live service piece of garbage.
These games should have never existed in the same discussion.

Why? No one cares.

If Rocksteady is involved then we can fully expect this game to be the Joel Shumaker of Batman video games.

They’re calling it batperson and the batmobile is a wheelchair

I mean, not really. They could just as easily claim that was an alternate universe - it's not like DC isn't chock full of them already.

There isn't a gamer alive who would be mad about them completely ignoring the fact that Suicide Squad game was ever made.

They've already said its the same universe as the Arkham games and Batman died in it.
