Has Warner Bros. already mowed two Superman games?.
In recent years, two projects have reportedly landed in the trash.
The people of the internet are becoming more and more impatient about Rocksteady’s mysterious project, so it’s no surprise that they’re jumping on every rumor that can be tied to Warner Bros. and have to do with superheroes. Since there have been several rumors in the past that the studio may be working on a Superman video game, the latest tab was immediately picked up by the World Wide Web.
The current rumor comes from James Sigfield, an editor at Geeks Worldwide, who shared a number of concept drawings on Twitter and revealed some interesting information about the relationship between WB Games and Superman. The first game planned would have been an open-world title, similar to Marvel’s Spider-Man, about which the publisher had approached a number of directors and producers for six years, but the idea didn’t get beyond a prototype.

The second was supposedly titled Superman: Unbound and took place in a town called Kandor, but was not imagined with an open world. The Steel Man would have fought evils like Brainiac and Doomsday in this. But the project fell victim to Warner Bros. ‘instruction that all DC Comics adaptations must use the Batman: Arkham game engine, and the developers were unable to solve it for Superman to fly (by the way, a Suicide Squad game also bleed due to the engine change). ).

The game was supposed to be less “open world” so as to limit Superman’s vast array of abilities. This game was to feature foes such as Brainiac, Doomsday, and tons of other mind controlled villains. pic.twitter.com/QBt1r2BGSs
