What's in the Podcast:
Kotaku Splitscreen Podcast said:There are oh so many games to play this fall, and you should start with Return of the Obra Dinn, the fantastic puzzler that Kirk and Jason both adore. This week they talk all about that, along with Hitman 2, the Sega Genesis Classics collection, and other games they're playing. Then it's time for the news of the week (37:50) on Red Dead Online, Diablo 4, and The Game Awards rumors, along with some off-topic talk on Bohemian Rhapsody and A Star Is Born.
Comments on Rocksteady:
Jason Schreier: "So, other rumors include what is Rocksteady working on? It feels like due time. It's been 3 years since Arkham Knight. Everyone's assuming that they're going to make an announcement soon. The Game Awards seems like a good time.
Rocksteady is one of those companies where there have been so many rumors. It feels like every week there's a new rumor, and they're all bullshit.
So, I have heard what they're working on. I don't really want to spoil it just for the sake of spoiling it, but every single rumor I've heard just seems to be bullshit.
Like there are Superman rumors and Justice League rumors, and it just feels like those rumors are begetting other rumors. So like people on 4chan are just postings like "Oh, well, I've heard this so many times!", and it just becomes like, accepted lore because if you see like four different iterations of the same Superman rumor, then it's like "Oh, of course they're making Superman."
I mean, the thing I've heard is not Superman at all. I can't 100% definitively say "No, they're not doing a Superman game", but I do not believe it.
I think what we're going to see from them is a game about a group of superheroes, and it will be like a Games as a Service (GaaS) type thing.
...
I don't think that it's Batman related, but, we'll see, we'll see what they end up doing."
[Nirolak's Note: Jason has previously said it's not Justice League IIRC, and Warner Montreal was making a Suicide Squad game that got canceled, so it's probably not that.]
