Monolith Productions, the team behind the fantastic Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, is working on a Wonder Woman game. However, it seems the team is already exploring new DC ideas outside its current project.
In a delisted LinkedIn job post from the studio, Monolith teases other DC projects that may be in development alongside the new Wonder Woman game. While they have shown little regarding the Wonder Woman project, Monolith has worked on the title since 2017’s Shadow of War.
The job listing asks for an Executive Producer at the studio who will oversee multiple projects at the company. Monolith’s new role also explains that the new producer should have a knowledge of the DC franchise, leaving many to assume new DC projects are in the works.
Owned by Warner Bros, Monolith’s next project was always expected to be based on the company’s existing IP. This means that the studio would likely be working on some form of Lord of the Rings or DC property, so the news isn’t too surprising.
Warner Bros is currently going hard on its DC gaming lineup. Batman: Arkham developer Rocksteady is working on Suicide Squad Kills the Justice League, and Gotham Knights developer WB Montreal is working on another Batman title. Of course, Monolith’s Wonder Woman title is also in the works, but only a smidge of new concept art has been released since its unveiling.
Very little is known about the Monolith game at the time of writing. However, the title will most likely see the return of the patented Nemesis System, allowing enemies to remember your actions and respond as gameplay evolves.
While we have yet to learn what other DC games Monolith might be working on, a few cool ideas come to mind. For example, a good Superman game and one based on The Flash would be fantastic. With the fast seek times of SSDs, could we actually see a Flash game work on modern hardware?
