Even in the face of exciting and thrilling superhero games, Batman: Arkham trilogy games are still considered to be one of the greatest. The primary reason for the trilogy’s popularity goes to the exceptional gameplay mechanics, immersive storytelling, and faithful adaptation of the comics, captivating both casual gamers and the ardent Dark Knight fans.
With a superior combat system neatly integrated with innovative stealth gameplay, the game features some of the most iconic locations and a plethora of gadgets to take down the thugs and the supervillains. However, the trilogy also features a rich narrative that focuses on every minute detail. Needless to say, gamers enjoyed every minute of playing the trilogy.
It looks like a Snake Eyes game from the G.I. Joe franchise is in the works and it is heavily inspired by the Batman Arkham games.
Batman: Arkham Trilogy Inspires G.I. Joe Game Featuring Snake Eyes
Developed by Rocksteady Studios and WB Games Montréal, Batman: Arkham Games truly revolutionized the expectations from video games as it featured how superheroes in video games should be done. With free-flow combat, everything seemed seamless, and smooth, where every single punch, and kick felt hard-hitting.
Moreover, infusing the combat with gadgets in combat added to the game, featuring iconic tools like the Batarang, Smoke Pellets, Voice Synthesizer, and many more just adds to it. To add another star to the game’s reputation, Rocksteady Studios expanded the playground of The World’s Greatest Detective, ensuring they utilize every space in the virtual world, featuring the whole of Gotham.
Dan Ayoub, the Head of Digital Product Development at Hasbro, shared how the company is keen on continuing its run of making smash-hit games and made a massive investment in their games. During an exclusive interview at the Game Developers Conference with Games Industry.biz, Dan Ayoub shared how people are taken aback when they learned Hasbro is now making video games, and how “over $1 billion” is invested in their video games as of now.
He said,
“The biggest thing to takeaway, which is honestly a little surprise to a lot of people, is that Hasbro is in fact making video games. And we have a considerable investment in our studio structure; we’ve got over $1 billion in games right now being developed.”
To add to the excitement of gamers, Ayoub shared how Hasbro has four AAA studios, where one North Carolina-based Atomic Arcade, is working on a G.I. Joe game featuring Snake Eyes, which he likes to call “not your daddy’s GI Joe.”
This news shared by the Head of Digital Product Development was loved by the gamers as they came forward on social media to give their opinion of the game.
G.I. Joe Fans Are Hyped to Play The Batman: Arkham-Inspired Game
As Dan Ayoub shared how Atomic Arcade is developing the G.I. Joe game featuring Snake Eyes, gamers around the world got excited as they believe it will be the next big thing because as we know Snake Eyes and Batman are quite similar in nature.
