And it's time to get into the second most popular hero in the world because we already know that Spider-Man takes the top spot. But you know, that's besides the point, right? I don't want to make Batman fans upset this early into the segment. So hopefully this following news will uplift your spirits as Rocksteady has, well, there's rumors. So it takes us with a grain of salt. But basically, they said that Rocksteady is focusing on a new single-player Batman. game but of course the specifics were not confirmed now that is set to make a lot of people upset why because badman beyond is what people are wanting for the next installment into the arkham night series

if you don't know well into the arkham series because when it comes to the arkham night being the last game of the series if you don't know how it ends i don't want to spoil it for you because of course well if you want to play the game for yourself like i know kaisson that's doing a whole batman marathon so why would I spoil it for anybody who wants to know what happens at the end so basically essentially warner um is wanting to make a new batman single player game but they are saying that it's going to be the first entry into a new batman game trilogy now i wonder what character they could go with as far as continuing the storyline but also giving him his own trilogy So after we figure out that it's probably going to be a Batman Beyond game, we have to start to get into what do we want to see when it comes to Batman Beyond game?

Because if you don't know, his power set is very unique as far as compared to Batman. And I believe that Bruce Wayne is like super old whenever Batman Beyond comes through. So I wonder how they're going to do that. Like I wonder if it's going to be a time skip. Like it's just so many questions that we need answer. And of course, with these rumors, we're not going to get answers to those type. those type of specific questions. So I'm trying to figure out what are the differences,

what are the differences between the powers is? So what comes to Batman? We already know where he is, you know, he's basically a human doing all these superhero-like feats because he has plot armor. But you know, that's besides a point, right? Actually getting into Batman Beyond,

I know he has Rocket Boots. I know he has Rocket Boots. So I think that's like one of the main differences between Batman Beyond and Batman as far as transversion the environment so of course Batman Beyond is Terry McGinnis uh Batman you already knows Bruce Wayne uh the main difference is that Batman beyond has a advanced exosuit which Batman does as well but like I said he has jet boots he has invisibility interesting built-in gadgets such as battle rings grapple okay same thing Batman has

but he has enhanced strength because of his exosuit. So when it comes to Batman, I've always wondered why he made all these suits, but he can never fly. Like if you have this much money and you're working with some of the top tech people in the world, why are you making a suit to where you got to grapple around, you got to use vehicles?

Like, why did I just make a suit where you could fly? But maybe I'm tripping. The main thing with me when it comes to Batman is that he's a human and he should not be doing all these superhero-like feats. I know y'all say to suspends your disbelief, but whenever they compare, they consistently compare who will win in a Superman versus Batman scenario, that's when I get upset. I'm like, there's no way y'all telling me that a human is about to take out Superman in any form or fashion. I don't care if he has kryptonite armor all around him. It just doesn't make sense. So with that being said, Batman Beyond is my own.

more of an upgraded Batman from the standpoint of the suit. Now of course Batman, you know, his intellect, which I call plot armor. But you know, that's basically, uh, he's one of the world's greatest detectives and things like of that nature. Batman Beyond is not. He's less detective, more just suit dependent and just throw hands. He's not like going to be Sherlock Holmes and figuring out who the villain is or what the, um, motive is behind the villain, right? He's not doing any at he's going in and throwing straight hands meanwhile batman is over here on his knees basically looking at stuff with a magnifying glass right so that's the main difference of with terry mcginnis's suit he's a lot stronger he can go invisible he has jet boots so transverse in the environment should be

a lot more enjoyable because now a lot of people want like superman like games but they don't realize the superman is one of the most op fictional creations of all times so as far as balancing that in the gaming format it wouldn't make any sense like unless he's battling robots 24-7 Batman's out here fighting thugs on the street Superman can't do that in his game because it wouldn't make sense like imagine you get beat up about thugs on the street as your Superman just doesn't make sense right so Superman would have to be in some like huge apocalyptic type of setting for his story to even make sense which is why brainiac is one of the best villains for a Superman like character but when it comes to a game do you really really want the entire game to be just robots running around the entire like as far as the apocalyptic

setting of course not so um it's hard to do a superman game and i think if you look at any superman game in the past you'll realize why it's that hard so with batman being more human it's it's a lot more believable as far as him going up against random street thugs and getting taken out with one punch so so um batman beyond um they're also working on um it's a spot Spider-verse type of show where I don't know if it's the creators of Spider-Verse, but they're basically wanted to do a Batman Beyond version of what they deal with Miles Morales, Spider-Man, and across the Spider-Verse. So I think that would be a great transition for them, but as far as actual development details

leading back to the game, you already know that the commercial failure of Suicide Squad killed to Justice Lee probably made Rocksteady look back at their IP and was like, you know what, let's just go with the safe bet because we already tried with Suicide Squad to switch it up and we've seen how that came about one of the worst flops in game in history so now let's go back to batman let's try to give terry mcginnis his own trilogy and see how that does and i think that would be phenomenal because if you don't know warner bros montreal was previously working on a similar Batman beyond inspired game co-named Project Sabbath, but it was canceled in 2017. But elements were allegedly repurposed for Gotham Nights and suicide squire.

So if you didn't know, well, now you know. So the game is rumored to be a PS5 exclusive. Xbox players is not going like that. So of course for PC players, I think it would still come out even if it is exclusive on PlayStation because usually months after or maybe even a whole entire year after, at some point you will get the PlayStation. would not PlayStation, you would get the game that was exclusively on PlayStation. So, I mean, just look at Spider-Pos4 and how long that took to go from PlayStation to PC.

So when it comes to that, I think that's one of the main things you need to look at as far as Batman Beyond coming in the future. Obviously, we have no official confirmation from Rocksteady, Warner Bros, or anything, but all of these are reputable sources as far as when I researched more into it as far as the Batman Beyond game being the actual thing. So I'll take it with a grain of salt, but also do realize that a lot of these publications are saying the same thing. And at that point, whether it's smoked is fire as if they're going to have an entire trilogy set around Batman Beyond, especially in the universe, I think we're in for a treat as the main thing with Rocksteady is getting a W because Suicide Squad was such a flop that there's really no point in trying to. Roll the dice again. Just go with your most popular superhero. Go with what you already know as far as the mechanics of using a Batman-like character. Give us a trilogy under Batman Beyond.

And then maybe under that trilogy or in the midst of that trilogy, you could put out like a Justice League game where we have the OG Batman, right? I think that could be a good marking strategy rollout for Rocksteady. But of course, with Suicide Squad, they're bound to, uh, make some mistakes, but I just hope it doesn't end up with them going away from the Batman Archonverse. So with that being said, click my link to share in my bio. Let me know what of my social media is.

What do you think about Batman Beyond being rumored to be the next single player game from Rocksteady? And would you be looking forward to a Batman Beyond Rocksteady game or if the rumors aren't true, but they're still working on a single player game? which character under the DC umbrella would you like to see them make a game for it?
