New Batman Game Reportedly in the Works at Rocksteady, Could Be PS5/PS6 Exclusive

As a seasoned gamer with decades under my belt, I can’t help but feel a twinge of excitement upon hearing whispers of a new Batman game from Rocksteady Studios. The Arkham series has always been a high point in my gaming journey, and if these rumors are true, it seems we might be in for another thrilling ride in Gotham City.


Based on recent reports, it appears that Rocksteady Studios in the UK is developing a new Batman video game. This game could potentially be exclusive to either the PS5 or PS6, depending on its release date. After experiencing a setback earlier in the year with Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, job listings indicate that Rocksteady Studios began working on a new project this summer. While there’s no official confirmation yet, speculation suggests that the studio may return to its signature franchise – Batman – with its next game. This rumor has been circulating lately.

I’ve just picked up a tidbit from Nick Baker over on social media, who’s known for his accurate leaks and rumors with Xbox Era. But remember, he’s had his misses too. Only time will tell if this is one of his hits or misses. For now, the details are scarce.

What Baker is pointing out is his understanding that Rocksteady Studios is once again developing a Batman game, and he believes Sony might be attempting to manipulate the market for their advantage through financial means, a tactic often referred to as “trying to strong-arm it with money.

As an enthusiast, I can’t help but wonder if there’s a hidden element of exclusivity in play with this upcoming game, despite Baker not explicitly mentioning it. It seems that Sony might be investing such substantial funds elsewhere than just marketing or PS Plus, possibly securing timed or even permanent exclusivity for the PS5 or PS6, depending on the game’s release date. While I hope it’s something more exciting than that, history suggests that Sony has a penchant for splurging generously on exclusive deals with developers for their console games.

Keep in mind that all of this information should be treated with caution, similar to any gossip. Even if the rumor is true, there’s a chance it might evolve and become outdated. If we assume the rumor is correct, you shouldn’t expect the game to launch anytime soon – we’re talking at least several years from now. The last time Rocksteady Studios released a game – Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League – it took nine years for that game to hit the shelves. However, their next project probably won’t take as long, but it will still likely be three to five years if everything goes according to plan.

As I type this up, neither Rocksteady Studios, WB Games, nor PlayStation have given their two cents about this rumor that’s been buzzing around. Frankly, I don’t hold my breath for them to break their silence anytime soon, but if they do, rest assured, I’ll make sure to keep you all in the loop by updating the story accordingly.
