This week, WB Games Montreal has released a number of teasers for what the next Batman video game looks like. As with other recent clues, the latest comes from the @ r3dakt3d Twitter account. The image in the Tweet below has hidden the Roman numerals for “364” all around. When those numbers are punched in the third entry on the r3dakt3d website, they reveal another piece of what the game’s map appears to be, such as the words “Third Times A Charm.” It seems likely that the full image will not be in focus until Saturday’s DC FanDome event, but fans clearly have a good time trying to decipher the various clues!

The previous two maps are also accompanied by directions. The first had the phrase “One step closer”, while the second had “Face two face.” It’s impossible to say for certain what the clues might mean, but the second seems to hint at the character Two-Face playing a central role. Of course, rumors have suggested that the game will feature The Court of Owls as well. A fourth draw is set to be released tomorrow.
Teasers like these have become increasingly common around the video game sector. Earlier this month, Activision began releasing similar teases for the next entry in the Call of Duty franchise, challenging members of the fan and streaming communities to solve various puzzles. These types of teasers allow builders and developers to build hype for their upcoming games, without showing too much.
WB Games Montreal has long been rumored to be the developer of the next Batman game. Nothing has been officially confirmed at this time, but an announcement will be made at DC FanDome. The developer has worked on it before Batman: Arkham Origins, while Rocksteady Studios, the team responsible for the other Arkham games, is currently working Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. That game is also set to make its official debut during the event. It’s been five long years since the release of Batman: Arkham Knight, but it looks like Batman fans will have a lot to look forward to very soon!
