Thought I'd get a thread up for this in case any news released soon.

Hope it's up to snuff, Arkham Knight was like what, 6 years ago now?

Rocksteady are (were?) one of my favourite developers. I've no clue where they've been since releasing Arkham Knight. All but disappeared save for that VR game.
Can only imagine some big project they were working on got cancelled

No, they've been developing this game for a while apparently.

I hope they dial it down on the open world bloat and simplify the combat a bit.
(but I don't think they will)

Maybe they took a break after building some massive games in short succession.
I'm happy for devs to take their time with releases.

As long as they don’t have endless shitty car sections then it might be good.

Curious though, can devs like Rocksteady even take a break? Rockstar have slower output these days, but they have cashcows like GTA Online. Can't think of other studios with this kind of gap who don't also do other contractual work in the interim |

Well they've still been making money off Arkham Knight, it's still been selling as well as going to Epic Games store and Gamepass. I think WB understands they're one of their good developers like Netherealm and leave them to it.

I think WB understands they're one of their good developers like Netherealm and leave them to it. I suppose. Over the years I have seen a few rumours of other projects, like a Superman game, but never been sure if there's any weight to said rumours Hoping to see gameplay of this one at this point honestly. |

Unbelievable coincidence this thread created as a new trailer came out.

This sort of power wouldn't have flown on THAT last site...
Changing usernames, editing thread titles, where does it end? Down with this sort of thing. Careful now.
Game looks pretty good though, typically energetic. I came here to post the trailer, but already beaten to it. I hope it's more like Asylum or City though, as I didn't enjoy Knight as much.

Its an open world Metropolis, so definitely not going to be a tight experience like Asylum (best game in the series IMO)
Very much a wait and see type thing for me. Would be nice to get some gameplay footage at least.

Unsurprisingly this has been delayed to 2023.

A few reports saying it's a GAAS.

I thought when it was announced they said it was gonna be GAASy? It's all based off a screenshot of what looks like the main menu. I didn't read too much into it because Gotham Knights menu looked pretty much the same and it's not a GAAS. But then somewhere on the main menu it does mention a battle pass so...

They clearly ripped all of that out of GK at the 11th hour. WB are utterly fucked for cash, so it really wouldn't surprise me if they lean into gaas heavily with this one.
Definitely giving this one a month or so and checking user feedback before I try.

They better hope those bots aren't as shitty as Marvel's Avengers were as well as the shitty objectives of stand on this panel for 2 minutes while a door opens or face the same enemy type for 20hrs. Sigh.

Look at the picture closely and see how many 'currencies' there are. |

Agreed - it doesn't look good.
I also don't like the "cosmetics only" argument, even if it is true. Although I didn't play it myself, I know people loved collecting all the different outfits in Spider-Man, and none of them were paywalled off (insofar as I'm aware).
