WB Games is in an odd position at the moment. Its two biggest studios, Rocksteady and Netherrealm, both failed to achieve sales targets with their latest games. At the same time, Warner Bros is trying to spin up the new 'DC Universe', spanning films, games and other media. It would seem that the hopes of an expansive DC universe may keep both of these studios alive for the foreseeable future, as leaders from both are actively meeting with James Gunn to discuss future plans.

WB Games is considering a switch to licensed games, as the trials and tribulations of live-service game development continue to take a toll on the company's financials. The low performance of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has led to a sharp drop in year-on-year revenue.  WB Games confirmed in …

Today, Warner Bros held its Q2 earnings call and as expected, the gaming division is continuing to suffer. The low performance of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League has crushed growth, and now, WB is looking to license out its IP in the future instead.  It would seem that recent …

The dwindling Suicide Squad fan base had plenty of questions for Rocksteady earlier in the month, after the studio quietly missed its release window for the game's ‘Episode 2' update for its first season.

After creating the critically acclaimed Batman Arkham Trilogy, Rocksteady’s next title was announced to be Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. While conceptually a cool idea, the switch to a more live-service styled approach has led fans to worry that the game’s story will suffer as a result. According to …

WB Games Montreal has historically resided within the shadow of Rocksteady Games – especially as both studios have worked primarily on DC properties in the past. In the wake of Gotham Knights’ less-than-stellar reception, it seems as though many of WB Montreal’s upper-level developers have left the studio. As collated …

While Destiny managed to find success and usher in the age of 'live service' games, many other publishers have tried and failed to replicate that formula. While it seemed that Marvel's Avengers might have had a good shot, content exclusivity controversies, a lacking end-game and an empty post-launch roadmap meant that the game never found its feet. Now, I fear that Rocksteady is heading in the same direction with Suicide Squad.

MultiVersus has had a great reception since launching its open beta earlier this summer. The game's first season of content has unfortunately been delayed to later in the month, but the upside is that now it will pack more content, including new modes.  WB has given us a sneak peek …

WB Games chose to skip E3 and Gamescom this year, leaving us with no updates on Gotham Knights or Rocksteady's upcoming Suicide Squad game. Fortunately, both titles will be shown off very soon, with plans to appear during this year's DC Fandome event.  In a new trailer for DC Fandome, …

Warner Bros. recently held its DC FanDome digital event which saw a number of new announcements and first looks across all different mediums. In the realm of video games, alongside an announcement for Gotham Knights – the next game from WB Montréal – the DC FanDome also unveiled the next game …

Ever since shipping Batman: Arkham Knight back in 2015, Rocksteady has been silent, leading to plenty of rumours about the studio's next game. At first, this was believed to be a Superman game but later on, Suicide Squad rumours began popping up. As it turns out, Rocksteady is indeed working …

This week, DC announced a massive digital event called ‘FanDome’, during which we will see plenty of new announcements for DC-based comics, animated projects, TV shows etc. Most importantly to our audience though, is the fact that WB Games will be in attendance to make an announcement.

Rocksteady officially wrapped up its time with Batman earlier this year with the release of Arkham Knight. However, that doesn't mean Warner Bros is done developing games based on DC Comics characters, as it looks like WB Montreal, the team behind Arkham Origins, is currently working on two unannounced DC …

When Man of Steel launched in 2012, it brought Superman back to the big screen. At the time, The Christopher Nolan movies were enjoying great success with their darker take on Batman so Warner Bros applied that same dark tone to Superman. Man of Steel was a decent enough movie, …

DC Comics themed MOBA title, Infinite Crisis, will be launching on Steam this month on the 26th of March, Warner Bros Studios has officially announced. The game has been sitting in open beta for around a year now but was not previously available on the most popular PC platform. The …
