Rocksteady suffered a major setback with the release of its latest project, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, which sold below expectations and deviated considerably from the company’s usual template being a live-service title.
Earlier this year, it was reported that Rocksteady Studios was working on a new single-player Batman game, although nothing official has been announced yet. The Bloomberg report that broke the rumour stated that the project is still years off at this point, which does make sense if Rocksteady is still hiring for the project .
