WB Games Montreal appears to be gearing up for its next major project, following its previous work in the DC Comics universe. While the studio has remained quiet about what’s next, recent activity suggests something big is underway.
A new development has come to light that could hint at the future direction of the studio—and it’s already sparking discussion among fans.
WB Games Montreal is working on a new AAA project based on a DC Comics property, and it’s confirmed to follow live-service model. A recent job listing for an Executive Producer at the studio outlines responsibilities tied to post-launch content, strongly indicating a long-term, service-driven project.
Importance: WB Games Montreal’s shift to a live-service DC title signals Warner Bros.’ continued focus on ongoing monetization despite recent failures, raising concerns among fans who prefer single-player experiences and putting pressure on the studio to deliver with a major IP like Superman.
A AAA Title Powered By Unreal Engine 5
After releasing Gotham Knights, WB Games Montreal has already begun full development on its next major project title — a AAA project built on Unreal Engine 5. According to a new job listing for an Executive Producer, the game is based on one of Warner Bros.’ iconic DC Comics property.
While the listing doesn’t mention specific characters, it clearly states that the position will be responsible for over-seeing post-launch support and crafting the live-service strategy, confirming that the game will follow a liver-service model.
Live-Service Model Confirmed For WB Montreal New Project
This suggests ongoing updates, content drops, and a long-term engagement plan. Interestingly, the listing also emphasizes prior experience with live-service games as a requirement, leaving little doubt about the project’s direction.
Given that Rocksteady is reportedly leading developing on the next Batman game—potentially linked to a Batman Beyond trilogy—speculation now points toward other major DC heroes, such as Superman, as possible leads.
Despite recent failures in the liver-service space, Warner Bros.’ appears committed to this model, even amid continued fan skepticism.
