Rocksteady's Next Game Rumored To Be BATMAN: ARKHAM CRISIS

Rocksteady's Next Game Rumored To Be BATMAN: ARKHAM CRISIS

There have been rumblings for a while now that Rocksteady is planning to return to the DC Universe for its next game, and a new report now claims that we're getting another instalment in the Arkham series.

Despite rumours swirling for a while now that Rocksteady Studios is going to release a Superman video game, a new report claims that they're actually planning to continue the Arkham franchise with a game titled Batman: Arkham Crisis

Not many details have been revealed, but it's said that the game has been in development for the past two years and an official announcement is expected in March. It seems as if Rocksteady is taking a slightly different approach to the story this time, as it will reportedly boast a more complex, 12-arc narrative with each chapter roughly an hour in length.

It's also said that players will be able to use the Batwing in the game and there may even be a co-op mode with side missions to play through. 

This should obviously be taken with a pinch of salt for now as rumours about Rocksteady's next project arrive on a near-monthly basis, with talk last year about a "Court of Owls" adaptation of some sort.

What do you guys think of this report? Be sure to weigh in down in the comments section.

@JonAwesome - my top spot for favorite game series of all time is a 3 way tie between Red Dead series, Elder Scrolls series and Batman Arkham series. All 3 have pioneered open world gaming in different ways.

Smh...
If they really have to make a Batman game, i rather have Batman Beyond.
Forget about Cyberpunk 2077, Welcome to Gotham City 2039!

Also i will never get tired of saying this but:
Ra's al Ghul's League of Assassins > Court of Owls.

@Doomsday8888 - The League is better on the whole but the Court of Owls has some of the all-time best Batman moments:

Definetly my favorite Batman story written by Snyder.
But the main concept it's not very original.

@Nightwing1015 - I actually dropped Synider's run on Batman after this issues.
I had just come off of reading Frank Millers All Star Batman and Robin so a story of Batman acting insane was not something I wanted to read at the time.

I think I'm skipping this one. They're all technically well made games, but the last one had a pretty terrible story and (even though I appreciate the inclusion of the Bat-tank nonsense), each game has felt decidedly more reluctant to grow "out" and cover fresh ground.

And honestly, this just isn't a Batman or a Gotham that I find that interesting. The Joker is always juiced on Final Fantasy Boss Serum or a hallucination or something. The Bat-Family is bloated, but only really show up for cutscenes. It leans more heavily on comic continuity than establishing its own.

I hate to be a downer about the franchise because it is such a standout in quality, innovation, and polish, but the third one (not even by Rockstar) is the only story I really liked all that much in the series.

I see people complaining about the Arkham games formula getting stale, yet they're flocking to stores every time a new GTA is out.

Come on guys.

As long as it's good and it's Batman, you got my money.
