Rocksteady begins search for Game Director for its next Batman game
Rocksteady Studios is actively seeking a Game Director for its next major project, as evidenced by a job posting from Warner Bros. Discovery on February 17th.
The posting outlines the responsibilities of the role, which include overseeing the creation of a high-quality game design. This encompasses a wide range of elements, from core gameplay mechanics and player progression systems to combat design and mission structure. The ideal candidate will possess extensive experience across diverse game genres, notably third-person action, open-world adventures, and games featuring prominent melee combat. This requirement has fueled speculation regarding a potential return to the Batman franchise, the series that catapulted Rocksteady to prominence.
The characteristics outlined in the job description strongly align with the Batman: Arkham series, contrasting with the more gun-focused gameplay of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
Given the early stage of recruitment, the new game is likely still in its conceptual phase. Industry analyst Jason Schreier has indicated that, should Rocksteady indeed develop a new single-player Batman title, its release wouldn't be anticipated for several years.

Rocksteady's most recent release, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, launched on February 2nd, 2024, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (via Steam). The game received a mixed reception, garnering a Metacritic score of 63/100 from critics and a 4.2/10 user rating.
Previous reports have hinted at a possible Rocksteady return to the Batman universe, with rumors suggesting a project inspired by the Batman Beyond animated series.
