When you’d have instructed us 5 years in the past that Batman: Arkham Knight would make its technique to the Nintendo Change, we might have laughed in your face and waddled off again to the Iceberg Lounge.
Alas, alongside its predecessors, Arkham Knight arrived on Change in December 2023, and although it wasn’t significantly superb when it comes to efficiency (in actual fact, we would say it was extremely poor), it was however a stunning addition to the Change library of video games.
With that in thoughts, whereas the information of developer Rocksteady Studios engaged on a brand new single-player Batman sport would usually go in a single ear and out the opposite, we really feel considerably compelled to concentrate this time given the cheap likelihood that it might present up on the Change 2.
In keeping with an article from Bloomberg trying on the present misfortunes of Warner Bros. Interactive Leisure, Rocksteady is again doing what it does finest after the dev did not make a splash with 2024’s Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. Plagued with delays and adverse viewers preconceptions, the sport finally fell method wanting Warner’s expectations upon launch, resulting in a lack of $200 million.
It is smart, then, that Rocksteady would return to the collection that made it such a famend studio within the first place, however based on the Bloomberg piece, it is probably “the brand new undertaking is years away from touchdown”. Not a very stunning revelation, however we reckon it is protected to imagine that it is going to be some time earlier than any official announcement is made.
Main names within the business, together with Microsoft and Take-Two, are seemingly pledging their help to Nintendo within the coming years, and with many titles from Warner Bros’ catalogue displaying up on the OG Change, we actually would not be stunned to see a brand new Arkham sport land on the Change 2 within the years forward. We’ll have to attend and see, although.
Would you prefer to see a brand new single-player Batman sport from Rocksteady? What do you suppose the possibilities are that it’d present up on Change 2? Tell us with a remark.
