Summary
A wealth of new information about the upcomingWonder Womangame has just been leaked from a credible source, offering some interesting insights about its gameplay and technical specifications. WB Games andMiddle-earth: Shadow of Wardeveloper Monolith Productions announced a newvideo game based on the iconic Wonder Womanduring the Game Awards in 2021, but there has been very little news since. What is known so far is that thisWonder Womangame will feature an open world of some kind and that it will utilize the Nemesis System from Monolith’sMiddle-earthgames for a stronger connection between Diana of Themyscira and the many foes she battles against.
Supposed concept art for the forthcomingWonder Womangame was recently leaked earlier this year, providing a potential glimpse at a futuristic setting and famous DC Comics characters like Nubia. Fans have since speculated that Monolith couldsoon release more information aboutWonder Woman, possibly at this year’s Game Awards livestream. In the meantime, parent company Warner Bros. recently dispelled rumors thatWonder Womanwould feature a live service model, much to the relief of players put off by such features in games likeMarvel’s Avengersand the upcomingSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.
Even moreWonder Womannews surfaced this weekend when industry insider Nick Baker shared some information about the game on the Xbox Era podcast. As reported byComicBook.com, Baker claims thatWonder Womanwill feature graphics on the level of last year’sGotham Knights, running at 30 FPS in its default mode with the development team at Monolith aiming to include a 60 FPS performance mode.
Baker goes on to describeWonder Woman’s gameplay, which he says will be similar to Xbox’sCrackdownseries in terms of jumping, leaping, and fast dashing. Players will supposedly be able to equip various boots, braces, and torso equipment with upgradable stats, similar toSony Santa Monica’s recentGod of Wargames. Wonder Woman’s legendary Lasso of Truth is reportedly used to capture enemies for throws and combo attacks, similar to the webs in theMarvel’s Spider-Manseries. Lastly, Baker claims that Diana’s infamous Invisible Jet can be used for fast travel.
While all of this newWonder Womaninformation sounds intriguing, it should be pointed out that it is all just a rumor at this time and that even seasoned insiders like Nick Baker have gotten things wrong from time to time. As such, fans should take these claims with a healthy dose of skepticism for the time being, at least until WB Games and Monolith Productions are ready to share more official news regarding the upcomingWonder Womantitle.
