On prime of all the films and TV exhibits being developed for DC Studios, there’s additionally a Superman online game that we will count on to see in some unspecified time in the future. We already knew that James Gunn and Peter Safran have been planning on growing video games that may join with the bigger DC Universe.
Safran defined: “Gaming is a big part of what we’re doing, and everything we do at DC comes through us. Gaming is just part of it, but it’s an area that we love, and we think could be really expanded upon.” he went on to say that these video games they make will put “an emphasis on storytelling and the universe, as opposed to individual movies or television.”
Sure! I just like the sound of that! When speaking concerning the tales that they inform, he explains that they are going to be supplementary tales to fill within the gaps between films. He stated:
“it’s not like we’re going to have ‘Superman’ come out, and then have the ‘Superman’ game come out. It’s more like, we have ‘Superman’ come out, then two years later, we have ‘Supergirl’ coming out. So what’s the story in between there? Is there a Kyrpto game that we can play, that comes in between, that’s still set in the world with these characters? But that’s it’s own thing. To sort of give games the prominence that they deserve.”
I like that they need to give the tales for these video games prominence, however on the identical time, it additionally feels like they are going to be a ‘second fiddle’ kind story made in an try to unfold an viewers throughout a number of types of media.
So, for followers to expertise Gunn’s full DC arc, they will additionally must have a gaming console and there are a lot of individuals on the market who don’t play video video games and are unlikely to ever fill within the gaps left by the video games. I suppose they’ll at all times watch the play-through movies on YouTube!
One factor is for positive, it looks as if it’s going to be a very very long time earlier than we see any video video games, like this Superman one which Gunn talked about, launched.
What are your ideas on how DC Studios is seeking to deal with its video video games? Here are the the main points on the Superman and Supergirl films that will probably be coming:
Superman: Legacy: “This is really the start of the DCU. It is not an origin story. It focuses on Superman balancing his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing, he is the embodiment of truth, justice, and the American way. He is kindness in a world that thinks of kindness as old fashioned.”
Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow: “And next up is Super Girl Woman of Tomorrow. This is based on Tom King’s wonderful comic book series that came out just last year. It’s up for a bunch of awards. This is a very different type of Super Girl. In our series, we see the difference between Superman who was sent to Earth and raised by loving parents from the time is an infant versus super girl who was raised on a rock chip off of Krypton and watched everyone around her die and be killed in terrible ways for the first 14 years of her life, and then came to earth when she was a young girl and is much more hardcore. She’s not exactly the Super Girl we are used to seeing.”
