A sad mourning for fans of the classic Batman. Two days ago, Batman's voice actor passed away “Kevin Conroy” Who has been the character's companion throughout his career in the cartoon series and in the gaming industry. The legendary actor emerged as a true gaming hero with the game Arkham Asylum in 2009.

From here on everything changed and the quality of the series did not decrease, on the contrary, the quality in each part increased compared to the previous one, as we saw Arkham Origins, Arkham Asylum and finally Arkham Knight, which impressed me and became a strong standard for superhero games.

Now let's look at the history of Batman games, which we haven't seen in seven or more years, and the transition between two very different phases of a force to be reckoned with where you are, my dear. But if we get what we want, how do we want to see it?

The answer to this question depends on a few factors. As we know, developer Rocksteady's work on Suicide Squad, which is as devoid of Batman as the depressing Gotham Knights, indicates the developer's preoccupation with Batman at the moment. It would have been a few years before the studio came back with a new game for our hero, and the wait wasn't long at all.

Batman's return won't be easy

Another thing is the commercial and critical success of Suicide Squad. This is another measure from which we will see the intention to complete the developer's journey with the title. If this indicates anything, then it is the interest of Rocksteady and WB Games Montreal in the return of Batman as required, and what I have said here is only a response to the cancellation of the Damian Wayne project that was to return Batman to the championship arena again. .

We've seen a lot of rumors over the past year that WB Games is trying to sell off all of its studios more quickly than we expected, but if Discussion and Analysis is anything to go by, that's likely to add to the downside of a AAA Batman return.

We want something new

After what I just said, let's use naivety for a while and imagine that everything will go normally as it should, so Rocksteady will stick to the same scenario it did with the Arkham series or even a new installment of the series. I know very well that the game in the Arkham series does not include the best open world of all time, but at least we would be happy to have a game similar to what we saw because I think the Arkham style still has more ideas to offer.

The new Batman game, even if it's a completely new game set in its own universe and continuity, could easily follow in the footsteps of the Arkham series, and no one will beat it. Critics will love it, audiences will love it, and it will do an amazing job on the sales side. New ideas are always exciting, and I'd love to see the next Batman game try something different, something that hasn't been done perfectly by the Arkham games before.

I want to see a more vibrant Gotham City, a fresh take on established characters, and a new kind of story where the fun comes from the developer's risk-taking, and it would be very unusual to see a lack of risk in a Batman title. If you're someone who loves DC comics and novels, look no further than Gotham by Gaslight.

The Story This is one of the most beloved Batman comics of all time, and it’s set in Gotham in the late 19th century, with all the famous characters and places shown through a completely different lens. Who wouldn’t want to play a game in this vein? Then again, consider Batman: Year 100, another comic miniseries set in a futuristic Gotham City. Imagine seeing everything you said in the next game.

The last word

The existence of a new Batman game is not and will never be in doubt, even if we move away from that dream scenario where everything goes as it should, even if it takes years and years to develop a new Batman game, there is no scenario where it won't eventually happen. When it does happen, I really hope it will be something new and exciting. Of course, I would be lying if I said I wouldn't be happy even if that new game ended up being something like Arkham, but I want us to see something new and full of creativity.
