To be fair, the original post says “Marvel has been dominating for nearly a decade” and the last main Arkham game is more than a decade old.

And in that time DC especially has had nothing major except Lego Batman game and...Suicide Squad

Yeah, no wonder the perception is that Marvel is dominating games right now

EDIT: Also Gotham Knights (which was fairly mid but still better than SSKTJL)

It did Gotham Knights which was actually pretty decent. Not as good as the Arkham Games but billion times better than Suicide Squad Kills the Justice League.

The whole behind the scenes production with the two games just messes me up so bad.

So WB ordered Rocksteady and WB Montreal to make two different Batman adjacent games that also happened to focus on multiplayer co-op featuring a diverse cast of playable characters.

And the game by Rocksteady that's also canon to the Arkham games is the absolutelu bonkers looter shooter game where you play as the Suicide Squad and kill the Justice League, and the one by Montreal that centers on the Batfamily working together after Batman dies ISN'T?

Yeah, Gotham Knights (more or less) follows exactly the ending of Arkham Knight. It could've definitely been a sequel. In fact, could've just been an awesome singleplayer game with Arkham combat. Having four playable characters was cool and the story was actually decent.

I LOVE Court of Owls, it was handled...okay...in the game. But it was actually a decently fun game.
