That’s in keeping with Xbox Period co-founder and podcaster Shpeshal_Nick who has a considerably spotty monitor file in the case of insider info.

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 recreation.
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 recreation within the Arkham collection, or a remaster/remake of some kind?
The assertion that Sony is making an attempt to doubtlessly safe some kind of exclusivity deal could be very fascinating 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 supply who’s simply as typically fallacious as he’s proper, so take it with a heap of salt.
