Rocksteady’s Superman Game Rumors Debunked: Suicide Squad Takes the Lead
Hey gamers, have you been eagerly waiting for Rocksteady to release a Superman game? Well, despite all the rumors circulating over the years, it turns out that Rocksteady was never actually working on a Superman game. I know, it’s disappointing, but let me explain why and introduce you to their latest project: Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
Superman vs. Suicide Squad: The False Rumors
Look, I get it. Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League might not look as great as we hoped. The game’s foundations seem shaky, and to make things worse, it’s packed with unnecessary live service elements. But here’s the thing: Warner Bros. didn’t force Rocksteady to make a Suicide Squad game instead of a rumored Superman game. It’s just a case of misunderstood information.
According to a report from Bloomberg, the initial rumor about a Superman game came from Twitter user James Sigfield back in 2020. However, even Sigfield admitted later on that he had been mistaken. The mix-up happened because Suicide Squad is set in Superman’s own Metropolis, and Superman does appear in the game, albeit as an enemy.
Rocksteady’s Journey: From Batman to Suicide Squad
So, what has Rocksteady been up to since the release of Batman: Arkham Knight? Well, it turns out that a Suicide Squad game was actually in development at a different Warner Bros. studio but got canceled in 2016. The project was then handed over to Rocksteady, who began working on it in 2017.
After Arkham Knight, Rocksteady ventured into other projects, including a Batman VR game and a multiplayer game in an original franchise that hasn’t seen the light of day yet. But hey, who knows? It might still exist and surprise us in the future.
Superman Lives On (For Now)
Even though Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League ended up incorporating live service elements, it doesn’t mean the death of a potential Superman game. So, Superman may still have a chance to shine in the gaming world, despite the upcoming game’s subtitle hinting at his possible demise.
Get ready, gamers! Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is set to release on February 2 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. It’s time to join the squad and take on the Justice League!
