In an ideal world, we'd have several big AAA games based on comic book heroes. Alas, the reality is far from perfect.

Outside of Insomniac Games' Marvel's Spider-Man, Rocksteady Studios' Arkham trilogy, as well as NetherRealm Studios' pair of Injustice games and a handful of LEGO titles, there is a minimal representation of comic book superheroes in gaming. Warner Bros. Discovery, the new name of the entity formed following the merging of WarnerMedia and Discovery, is well aware of this. More importantly, it would like to do something about DC's approach going forward.

According to a Variety report, Warner Bros. Discovery wants to overhaul DC Entertainment. The new management sees that there is an opportunity for the comic book brand to "grow its approach to comic book fare, including bolstering gaming."

The same report did not go into detail about what DC's renewed gaming efforts would look like, but we imagine that it would mirror Marvel Studios' current plans. Marvel has started to leverage its non-Spider Man IPs in gaming in recent years.
