James Gunn, the CEO of DC Studios, recently revealed that he has held discussions with Rocksteady and NetherRealm regarding upcoming game projects set within the expansive DC Universe. These talks involve close collaboration with Warner Bros., ensuring a unified narrative across movies, TV shows, and video games. Although precise details remain undisclosed, it is rumored that these initiatives could involve a continuation of the iconic Batman: Arkham series and a new addition to the Injustice franchise.
Gunn noted that both studios are exchanging early-stage concepts and considering potential intersections with forthcoming films. Speculation also points toward a possible Superman game aimed at connecting the initial phase of the DC cinematic universe with its potential follow-up. Despite the absence of official announcements, Gunn indicated that the first results of these collaborations may surface publicly in the coming years.
The appetite for high-quality DC games is palpable, as enthusiasts have been anticipating compelling successors to the celebrated Arkham series. Recent releases such as Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League garnered varied responses, while Injustice 3 remains unconfirmed. With this renewed emphasis on excellence and cooperation, DC games appear destined for a revitalized beginning.
