2011 has seen a lot of sequels. In fact, nearly every major release this year has been a sequel. A new Portal, Uncharted, Battlefield, Call of Duty…the list goes on. Batman: Arkham City is no exception to that list. It is a triple A game experience, but when you boil it down, it is just more of Arkham Asylum and there is nothing wrong with that.
Rocksteady is said to be developing a new single-player Batman game, while Monolith's Wonder Woman game has been rebooted.
Man I hope this is true. Arkham Knight was so much fun and a great Platinum to get. Just give us MORE Batman. It's what most of us want. None of this multiplayer shit
Maybe during this time they can also address a performance patch for the existing games... cause you know this new one will likely have quality and performance modes. so why not the previous ones as well.
Arkham Knight was trash. Worst game in the trilogy, not even as good as Origins.
Rumor has it that the Next batman game will be a Playstation exclusive Sony is funding it
I hope this is true. It means it will be of a higher quality and no microtransactions in the single player game. They can also get back-up support from Sony if and when they need it.
Hope the WW reboot's a move towards right direction and came after lessons learned from Suicide Squad's failure.
I have respect for Monolith since the 90s. Don't want them to eff up as well.
I actually got to play test the game last year and it was dull and boring. Similar style to GOW 3 (less violent of course) but really repetitive.
God Of War 3? Gears of War 3(doubt)?
If the former, then fixed camera angle?
And how'd you get chance to play test?
I always though that Gears of War was GeoW, but I meant God of War.
I live pretty close to a WB Games subsidiary, every now and then they ask for random people to playtest beta versions of some games.
Can you describe it, then?
The format, the combat, the visual tone ... whatever?
I hope Arkham is getting a refresh because Sucicide Squad kind of ruined that Universe and I kind of hate how everyone knows who Batman is after Arkham Knight. Kevin Conroy has also passed away sadly.
Either an Arkham reboot or let them create a new Universe which incorporates the Justice League at the start so they can do something with them in the far future.
I'd love a Universe similar to the Batman / Justice League Animated Series.
Agreed. Also for a while there Rocksteady seemed like they would sooner make a batdog game rather than a new batman game
Monolith has their proprietary Engine : Litchtech. Latest version: Firebird.
The versions prior to Firebird were all available for 3rd party licensing since the 90s and were quiet popular. Notable games/series using Litchtech: Blood 2, AVP 2, NOLF, F.E.A.R, Matrix Online, Crossfire, Mordor etc...
Only studio at WB not using UE (atleast not converted yet)
After pushing out Suicide Squad, Rocksteady has another project in the works already, as confirmed by an employee's LinkedIn.
Give us more interesting news, like what projects are their old employees working on nowadays
was sad to hear that the new Battinson universe based new Batman game rumor was fake.
Anyways hope rocksteady goes back to its roots for the next game
Hopefully SSKTJ was a learning lesson. How about a Superman game…. As long as they don’t do anyone dirty like they did to Mr Freeze
GB: "With this feature, we take a look back at the incredible Batman: Arkham City with the aim of analyzing it from the perspective of a 2024 release."
great game that is worthy of this score, nice
