Wonder Woman fights alone. Despite arecent job listingbringing up live service, Warner Bros. denies its presence in the upcomingWonder Womanvideo game.
It’s no surprise that the mention of live service for a single-player title made people quite upset. Luckily, clarification from Warner Bros. helped ease that tension and reassured them on Monolith’s superhero epic.
An army of one-der Woman
Almost a month ago, Monolith Studios posted a job listing for a Lead Software Engineer for Gameplay. While many wouldn’t bat an eye towards it, it gained some unwanted attention when eagle-eyed fans noticed that one of the Nice to Haves (recommended) lists for one to have experience maintaining a live software game or project. While it’s more of a recommendation, many thought the title might go down the live service pipe, similar to the upcomingSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
Fortunately, Warner Bros. cleared the air on the whole situation.Responding to IGN’s comment, a spokesperson for the company said thatWonder Womanisn’t becoming live-service. Instead, it will maintain its third-person open-world action gameplay with theNemesis System.
Many, like myself, are happy to seeWonder Womannot become live-service likeDestinyandFortnite. DC is ripe for gaming and theBatman: Arkhamseriesshowcases that perfectly. If Wonder Woman can live up to that potential in terms of narrative and faithfulness, we may have a solid competitor forMarvel’s Spider-Man.
The game features an original story and you’ll play as Wonder Woman herself, Diana of Themyscira. Currently, Monolith Studios’Wonder Womanhas no release date. If you can’t wait to see more of the superhero, she will make an appearance in February’sSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice Leagueas…one of the Justice League.
Wonder Woman,revealed at The Game Awards 2021, is a single-player open-world action game. The game is developed by Monolith Studios and will include theirsignature Nemesis System, made famous by theMiddle-Earthseries.
