![Batman: Arkham Origins WB Montreal PS4 PlayStation 4 Rumour](https://images.pushsquare.com/a1c544cfeb619/batman-arkham-origins-wb-montreal-ps4-playstation-4-rumour.900x.jpg)
We've been waiting to see what WB Montréal is up to for what feels like an eternity. The developer has been teasing a new Batman game since September of last year, with mysterious social media posts hinting at a game featuring the Court of Owls. Fast forward to now and we're still none the wiser, really, save for a fresh report that claims to have some extra details.
Geeks WorldWide has the supposed scoop. According to the site, "Sources close to GWW" are saying this new Batman game is a "soft reboot". In other words, this isn't a Batman Arkham title, it's the start of a new fiction. Apparently, the initial plan was a direct sequel to Arkham Knight starring Damian Wayne, Bruce's son, but this project was cancelled. The site claims this fresh start will kick off a new "DC Game Universe" when it releases this Fall. Furthermore, Rocksteady's next game will apparently also be set within this DC Game Universe.
GWW also claims to know WB Montréal's game will feature co-op of some sort and a "playable Batfamily". Presumably this means you'll be able to take control of characters such as Robin and Catwoman as well as the Caped Crusader himself.
It's hard to say whether any of this is accurate, but the site seems confident in these details. Hopefully we're close to an official unveiling; Warner Bros Games was planning an E3 blowout of its big titles, so we should see this new Batman title soon.

sounds interesting but a DC Game Universe, there is so much that could go wrong with that concept
just imagine if they do a Superman game and mess it up it could affect the entire series
Cool does that mean I can play as Alfred?
The way WB has been teasing this game has been embarrassing and annoying, to say the least. Call me when the game has actually been revealed.
I like the thought of playing more than just Bats, especially if I can be Kate, Barbara or Dick. It would be fun. But I'm so tired of crumbs of info this year.
@vegeta11 yeh the constant drip of info from pretty much every developer this year has become very annoying.
Coop batman could be fun but its WB so i expect a Batcave marketplace
Just make it better than Knight.
I play Batman games because I want to play as Batman. Same goes for Link in Zelda games. I'm all for innovation and inclusion but this feature does not interest me.
By the time it gets announced, the game will become The Sims: Gotham edition...
Seriously, just announce it already...
Eh I love a good co op game and adore the Arkham series but that doesnt sound appealing tbh. Hopefully we get some actual info soon
Co-op??????? Really. I'm not too sure about this.
Its a pity i would love too go where they stopped at the last Arkham such a waste leaving Us with a cliffhanger.... 😔
Flaming Batman in the secret ending
@User8008 I agree. Sadly it's been from everybody.
On the OP if it's a co-op Batman game it's a hard pass for me to.
If we get a good flash game from rocksteady I’m all in
do we really need a new universe that ties together all DC games? look at what DC Extended Universe did with the movies. not everything has to be connected.
Let's hope Bat Mite is playable !!
Wonder why they haven't revealed it yet
I don't care what anyone says Arkham Origin has the best boss fights out of the entire series, I said it, come at me.
