In a new interview with Gamesradar, Co-Chairman and CEO of DC Studios James Gunn teased plans for future games set in the DC Universe (or DCU). Gunn’s comments come a few months after major restructuring at WB Games, which led to the cancellation of the previously announced Wonder Woman game.
When asked about how DCU’s gaming initiative is looking, Gunn states that “there’s been some slight movement on different things. We have a couple of little DC games coming out. But we also have talked about – and in early stages of planning – some bigger things. One thing in particular I’m excited about, but it does take time. There’s been some changes in Warner Bros. Games, and so we’re dealing with new people.”
In the past, Gunn has stated that the DCU films and TV shows will have as much parity as possible with any upcoming games. As a result, certain actors from the DCU, such as David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman in the recently released Superman film, could reprise his role in an upcoming game. Gunn, fellow Co-Chairman Peter Safran, and Warner Bros. Games will reveal more details in the coming months and years.
Recently, WB Games has announced LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, a new entry in the LEGO Batman series. The game will release in 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, PC via Steam, and Switch 2. Legacy of the Dark Knight features an original story with elements from multiple Batman films. This includes The Dark Knight Trilogy from Christopher Nolan, Batman from Tim Burton, and The Batman from Matt Reeves. Additionally, the game features open-world gameplay which allows players to navigate Gotham City in multiple Batmobiles from throughout the series.
