After years of waiting, a new Batman Arkham game is finally underway. As per Commissioner Gordon’s Voice Actor, they’re about to start the development of a new sequel soon enough.

In an interview with Culture Combine, Mark Rolston spoke about his work in Arkham Shadow and how he does motion capture, voiceover, and everything. He added that they’re beginning work on a new entry soon.

We’re about to start another one of those.

Despite being a VR-only title, Arkham Shadow was a solid Batman title. Despite being handled by a different studio, every bit of Arkham DNA was present in the game.
 
Arkham Shadow was also a prequel to the Arkham trilogy and followed a much younger Batman, exploring his rogues’ gallery to the fullest. Despite being a Meta Quest 3 and 3S exclusive, the game sold really well, enough to get a sequel greenlit just within a year of its release.
 
Arkham Shadow’s sequel is speculated to follow a younger Batman. Interestingly, Commissioner Gordon’s VA Mark Rolston previously played Deathstroke in the earlier Arkham games.

Currently, 3 Batman games are in development. Starting with the Arkham Shadow sequel, the ambitious open-world LEGO Batman game, and Rocksteady’s new Arkham entry, which is reported to be a Batman Beyond game.
 
These are exciting times to be a Dark Knight fan, surely. That said, Arkham Shadow will start development soon, and as such, expect a 3-4 year development cycle with a release date of 2028 at the earliest.
