As the developers and everyone involved in the project come to terms with this news, a prominent writer has also shared her thoughts on the situation, stating that the game was a dream come true.

Why it matters: The comments have upset fans even further, with many lamenting the fact that Monolith Productions was potentially on the cusp of something groundbreaking.

Shortly after Warner Bros. confirmed that it had halted development, Gail Simone came forward and shared that she was part of the project.

For the unaware, Gail Simone is famous for her Wonder Woman comics from 2008 to 2010, a record for the longest female writer involved in shaping the character’s legacy. As per the writer, she was hired as a long-term consultant on the game.

Recalling her experience, Gail Simone stated that everyone involved in development was filled with passion for the Amazon Princess and her stories. She emphasized that the goal was to make not only a great game but also a great Wonder Woman adaptation.

The game was gorgeous and expansive. It was beautiful to look at. It was a dream come true.
