[Rumor] Rocksteady returns to Batman, Wonder Woman faces development struggles, and Constantine game canceled

Warner Bros. Games boasts major IPs such as DC, Harry Potter, and Game of Thrones, with around 2,000 employees, yet in recent years it hasn’t quite taken the leap it needs—perhaps a legacy of David Haddad, the executive who resigned amid criticism of his lack of vision and management. It seems they’re still muddling through.

According to Jason Schreier (Bloomberg), the Wonder Woman game underwent a reboot and a change of director at the beginning of last year. Currently, its budget exceeds $100 million, and it still has years before its release. I recall it was announced in 2021 by Monolith Productions.

After the Suicide Squad fiasco, Rocksteady Studios is returning to work on a single-player Batman game.

Meanwhile, WB Games Montreal once proposed a Constantine game that initially impressed the company’s management. However, they were hesitant to move forward with it when it came time to approve the budget. Instead, they suggested developing a game featuring a more recognizable character, opting for Flash—another project that was eventually canceled. At present, they are working on a Game of Thrones title and supporting the Wonder Woman project.
