WB Games Montreal is reportedly working on a new DC Comics game. A job listing for a Senior Producer was uploaded, with the text saying that they are looking for someone to join “its Game Development team, working on AAA titles set in the DC Comics Universe.” However, that part of the text was removed, and it now just talks about working for the WB Games Montreal division of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. The entire job description was posted on Reddit, but some of the text has since changed on the official website. A screenshot of the original text was posted on X by a user named James Sigfield.
It was also uploaded to the WB website, and it was also caught on LinkedIn, which described the roles of the job, including helping oversee “all phases and teams of development of a single project, from the concept phase through its release.” From the sound of the job description and the responsibilities that they are asking for, it seems as if the project is in very early development.
Whoever gets the job will be asked to create a milestone roadmap, as well as deliver the milestones “from concept to ship” as well as helping to manage the production budget for the title. WB Montreal has made some very well-known games in the DC universe, such as Batman: Arkham Origins as well as the more recent Gotham Knights. 2024 saw the release of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, but the game received middle-ground reviews from critics but overwhelmingly negative reviews from consumers due to the game being full of bugs and server issues.
Looking at the Wikipedia page for the game studio also suggests that a new DC Comics game is in the works, as it’s listed that the game is TBA but that the game is in production using Unreal Engine 5. Whether this is true remains to be seen and likely will not be confirmed until the game is announced or until Warner Bros. makes a statement about the information. However, considering that they scrubbed the text to remove the DC Comics segment from the job description, it seems unlikely that they would publicly come out and provide any information about the Senior Producer role or whether they are actually making a game in the DC Games universe.
