Now, technically Rocksteady already are formally engaged on Batman since they’re nonetheless assist Suicide Squad which is a Batman IP and does function the Caped Crusader. However on this context Nick is presumably referring to a Batman-centric sport.

And given simply how badly Suicide Squad flopped, costing Warner Bros. some $200 million and failing to fulfill its expectations, it does make sense for Rocksteady to return to what made them well-known to start with. Maybe a brand new sport within the Arkham sequence, or a remaster/remake of some type?

The assertion that Sony is making an attempt to doubtlessly safe some form of exclusivity deal could be very attention-grabbing certainly. In the event that they pulled it off, they’d have each Spider-Man AND Batman unique to their platform, which might be insane to even take into consideration.

Nonetheless, that is only a hearsay and its coming from source who’s simply as typically mistaken as he’s proper, so take it with a heap of salt.
