Time Warner has confirmed plans to release the next game in the Batman: Arkham series in 2013.

Speaking during the firm's fiscal year 2012 earnings call last week, as transcribed by Seeking Alpha, chief financial officer John Martin said: "We also have a strong games release this year, which will include the next release in the Batman Arkham franchise.”

Time Warner's current fiscal year ends on December 31, 2013. We’ve sought further comment from Warner Bros. Interactive on its plans for the Batman: Arkham series this year.

It has been rumoured that the follow-up to 2009’s Batman: Arkham Asylum and 2011’s Batman: Arkham City will be a “highly stylized” prequel revolving around Batman's first meeting with the Joker. Variety reported last year that it would be based on the Silver Age of DC comic books from the 1950s, when Batman joined forces with the likes of Superman to found the Justice League of America.

VG247 said today it has been told by unnamed sources that Arkham Asylum and City creator Rocksteady Studios is not developing the next game in the series.

TL;DR? - Time Warner wants to put out a new Batman game in the Arkham series (the others being Asylum and City) but they may not ask Rocksteady Studios to help make it this go around.

The other part of the story is... it's scheduled to come out this year.

Really? Did you know sho the fuck Rocksteady was before Arkham Asylum released? So why wouldn't you give this unnamed studio a shot?

Why would Time Warner not give this game to the developer that has made two of the best games on this generation of consoles?

Riddle me that, Batman.

Rocksteady is probably working on some next gen batman shit that will blow our minds.

Or... they want to work on something that's not Batman for once.

Obvious answers are obvious...unless you're Swarley apparently.

Lol, you're a dumbass. B/c it's obvious that I thought they weren't doing anything if they weren't on this project.

You can't tell me though, that you're just as excited about this game knowing that they aren't working on it. And if you are, you're most likely a liar. Will I not get it just b/c they aren't working on it? Of course not you choad, but I wont be blindly throwing my money at them for the game either.

I wasn't excited about the first game. I had never heard of Rocksteady and historically Batman games have been shit. It wasn't until just before AA came out and all the glowing previews started to hit that I became excited.

I'm not saying that this game is going to be good but I'm also not just going to write it off like you apparently are.

Did you already forget you said this? Just because you backpedaled a but doesn't mean your original comment wasn't a blatant write off...dumbass.

That was more me just showing my displeasure with Rocksteady not handling this game. If you actually took that for face value, then I'm not real sure what to tell you. You should know me as a gamer better than that by now.

[DoubleDeuce]

So how about that Batman guys?

I never finished Arkham City but it was definitely a good game.
