Batman: Arkham Knight - 12 Superhero Franchises Rocksteady Must Tackle Next

5. Daredevil

In many ways Daredevil is the most natural successor to Rocksteady's Batman games. As a crimefighter his skills are evenly matched with that of the Caped Crusader's, and his sonar vision is simply begging for a Splinter Cell/Detective Mode hybrid form of its own. Combined with some of the richest lore to ever grace the pages of a comic book, and you have the perfect recipe for a title based on the adventures of Matt Murdock. Daredevil certainly has the most potential for narrative success than any other character - comic book heavyweights from Frank Miller to Brian Michael Bendis and Ed Brubaker have all had a hand in creating the Daredevil we know and love today, and there's a very good reason as to why his stories are so revered - something which the TV adaptation has endeavoured to emulate rather successfully as well. On top of a markedly different and interesting concept for a character (Murdock is one of the few characters in the medium to fight with a physical disability), Daredevil's tragic storylines would make for an emotional project unlike any other, and would really challenge Rocksteady to pen a tale about a character who overcomes adversity far more often than their beloved Dark Knight has ever done - and under increasingly strenuous circumstances to boot. Old Horn-Head's newfound popularity as a result of the aforementioned Netflix series has propelled the Hell's Kitchen vigilante into the spotlight of the general public, and it'd be mad not to take advantage of it, especially after Rocksteady have already shown their skills with escrima sticks before.
