Most successful gaming series end on a trilogy; this is especially the case with a series as well received as the Batman Arkham series. As such, I’m going to assume a third Batman Arkham game is on the way some time next year. In honour of that impending title, and so Rocksteady has time to take my advice into consideration, a little wishful thinking never hurt anyone, this piece is dedicated to providing some ideas for said game.
DC: Dark Legion has been announced for 2024 by FunPlus and Warner Bros.Interactive. It looks to deliver an immersive multiplayer experience.
Developers have been making Batman games for years and leaving the rest of the Justice League behind, so it's time to give Batman a break.
A open world Flash game with Barry Allen , Wally West , Wallace West and Bart Allen would be great.
Another open world game that would be great is Green Arrow and Black Canary.
Flash is my favorite DC hero but sometimes i wonder will his character work well in a video game. Ive played DC universe online for a few months and after a while running fast and running up buildings gets boring.
Maybe we just need a good developer with different ideas to make super speed work
There was a similar power in Infamous Second Son and Infamous First Light, and it never really got boring. I think you're right: a good developer could make it work!
Isn't that's exactly what's happening?
DC devs Are actually taking a break from Batman.
Hence the current 3 non-Batman DC games in the pipeline
Agreed. That’s the only one though lol. Batman has the best villains, it’s not even debatable. I don’t like dc much but Batman is great.
Swamp Thing and Preacher might be interesting as well. I prefer DC, they do the anti-hero thing much better.
I can agree with the offshoot series. The justice league stuff I’m not a fan. I think it’s wasted potential for rocksteady and the middle earth guys.
I agree Justice League is tired. Off topic, I also think Kirkman's Witch Doctor series would be interesting as well.
Rocksteady is perfect for a matrix game or watchmen. Just give me a more brutal Arkham Asylum with Rorschach, I’d be hyped. Now that I think about it he’s basically scumbag Batman anyway lol. A focused detective warrior type game on a single character could be sick.
They are though, they have suicide squad, arkham knights and Wonder Woman coming out. Seems like they are taking a nice break from batman
Concept artist Goran Bukvic posted concept art for a cancelled game that was quite obviously going to be the sequel to Batman Arkham Knight. This one apparently starring the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al’ Ghul, Damian Wayne.
Don't do that.. don't give me hope.
After the post-campaign events of Batman: Arkham Knight, I would be f'n thrilled to see what would go down in the sequel. An aged Batman taking on God knows what...
I like the aged Batman but I hate he fact we'd be playing as Damien
I'd have preferred they left the Arkham series open for Batman to return without the whole identity reveal and just focus on other projects until enough time had passed to come back to it.
Now we are getting two online focused, 4 player multiplayer games....
Gotham Knights is two-player max and the last glimpse of it focused all on the story. It's not like they're really rushing these out to cash in like cheap GaaS
Arkham Asylum reinvented Harley in a way that changed the character forever, both in the comics and big screen. They could have a similar impact by writing Damian as an enjoyable character
I don't mind Damian in the lead role. But according to rumor he was supposed to be Batman Beyond in this game. And replacing Terry McGinnis with Damian just feels wrong.
And this is coming from someone who's always actually liked Damian.
I’d prefer Batman not be so old looking maybe 5 years after Arkham or something. But play as Bruce and Kevin Conroy. Conroy deserves one last Batman game. Maybe after these cash grab multiplayer games are done. Or just give me Arkham Knight with current Gen technology.
