Rocksteady Working On New Batman Game

Rocksteady Working On New Batman Game

Batman: Arkham City director director Sefton Hill has said concerning Rocksteady’s next project that “if you could press CTRL+ALT+DEL in my brain, it would be 90% Batman at any given time. It sort of means that I can’t function in any other social capacity other than to talk about Batman.”

That’s what he told VG247 at the BAFTAs, where Arkham City won the Best Action Game award. Hill said there are lots of exciting ideas floating around the studio since the completion of the bestseller.

“It’s kind of interesting. When you come to the end, you feel like you’ve put everything in; it’s really convergent, the end of the game. And then when you start a new game it’s diverging, and everything becomes possible again.

Immediately we sat down and thought right, what do we do next? And there were so many exciting ideas on the table.”

Although the firm’s not yet ready to confirm what exactly they’re working, Hill gave a pretty clear hint that Batman is involved.

I personally would love to see them take on Spiderman or some other superhero, however sticking with what you know is just fine by me.

    id love to see them do something new.
    i love batman as much as the next guy.
    no, more!
    but im getting a bit bored of it, they either need to turn batman on his head and come up with a radically new concept or create a new IP.
    id love to see them do a green hornet game that would be really cool!
    or maybe a new series like batman but much, much darker and with a strong stealth emphasis.
    thats exactly why i loved batman begins.
    it felt really dark, and also your the monster in the shadows.
    you sit and stalk your pray and kill them with your gadgets.
    not time your swoop then treat them like last years pork!
    batmans turned FAR too much into a come here i want to beat the shit out of you!
    we want the dark night back!
    the guy who was the worlds greatest detective, who would stalk his pray in the dark waiting to pounce his gadget.
