After years of leaks, rumours and speculation, it looks as though fans finally know what exactly Rocksteady and Warner Bros. Montréal's DC video games are.

Over the weekend, several domain names registered by Warner Bros. were leaked on the Resetera forums. Said domain names included "GothamKnightsGame.com", as well as "SuicideSquadKillTheJusticeLeague.com". This followed Kinda Funny's Imran Khan stating last week that the last he'd heard Rocksteady were working on a Suicide Squad video game, which in turn came after months of rumours that the studio were developing a Games as a Service DC title.

In the wake of the domain registrations making their way online, Eurogamer have since reported that the leaks are accurate and that both WB Montreal and Rocksteady are working on Batman: Gotham Knights and Suicide Squad respectively, the latter of which may be called Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

Both games are said to be being developed for next-gen consoles and will be unveiled at August's DC Fandome event, which is also set to provide fans with first looks at James Gunn's Suicide Squad film, as well as Matt Reeves' upcoming Batman reboot.

Information on both projects is relatively scarce, but it seems nigh-on guaranteed that Gotham Knights will feature the Court of Owls and the Bat Family in some capacity. Eurogamer's report also mentions that we can expect to see "very little" of Suicide Squad at the event, but it remains to be seen just how much WB show off Gotham Knights.

Content Producer/Presenter

WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well. In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
