Rocksteady Seems To Have Begun Working On Its Next Game Already

Rocksteady Studios, the famous developer behind the Batman: Arkham franchise, has seemingly misfired with the onset of its latest release, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. It’s something that drastically breaks away from what Rocksteady achieved with its Batman games, being a live service third-person shooter with relatively weak gameplay, and a lack of adequate depth. 

But could the developer be willing to make amends from this point onward? I sure hope so. According to Tae Ho Kang’s LinkedIn, who is a Senior Systems Programmer at Rocksteady, the developer has already begun work on its new project (thanks Timur222).

This unannounced game has been in the works since June 2024 — not long from now — so it’s safe to assume it’ll be a good while before we can hear anything about it officially. Outside of that, there’s not much else to go on here sadly. 

Now, what this could actually translate to is anyone’s guess, and if I were to make an educated prediction, I’d also be able to come up with nothing but speculation. At best, it’s the Batman: Arkham series revived and restored back to its former glory. But the worst-case scenario? Prepare for another live service. 

Suicide Squad’s Release Has Killed A Lot Of Dreams

The writing was on the wall ever since Suicide Squad launched. Soon after its early access release, refund searches spiked by 791%, with players jumping to get their money back in droves. With unoriginality prevailing, and obvious plot loopholes getting pointed out, the game is a hot mess, and sooner or later, it might as well get taken off life support. 

In Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League (2023), every single character, including King Shark, is given a gun. This is because the game developers were trying to impress the CEO of DC Studios, James Gunn.
