Batman Arkham Knight: Rocksteady Talks about What’s Next for the Studio

Rocksteady co-founder Sefton Hill has spoken to International Business Times about Batman Arkham Knight, which launches tomorrow, and the future of the studio now that it's moving on from the Caped Crusader's saga. 

Asked if the developer would be interested in creating a new IP going forward, Hill replied,  "The great thing at the moment is the wealth of opportunities open to us, which is daunting. I mean if you're told to write a story about anything, that's just… woah [laughs]… anything? So this is an exciting time for us with lots of options as to whether we go for a new IP or an existing character."

While Arkham Knight is almost upon us, Hill says Rocksteady has yet to decide what's next "we're in a strange position because we haven't finalised what we're going to do, which is unusual but we like to work on one thing at a time, having the whole studio focused." 

Would you prefer to see Rocksteady tackle an existing story such as another DC hero (Superman, perhaps) or instead turn its attention to something entirely new?
