Warner Bros. denies the Wonder Woman game will be live service
Warner Bros. Games has denied that its upcoming Wonder Woman game will be live service.
As reported by Wccftech earlier this week, a job ad for ‘Lead Software Engineer, Gameplay’ at Monolith Productions suggested that the upcoming superhero game could have live service elements.
“Join the Wonder Woman team and help bring an iconic DC Superhero to life,” the listing reads.
While the job requirements list the typical experience expected from an applicant looking to work on a triple-A game, one of the qualities in the “nice to haves” section refers to live services.
Specifically, the listing says applicants may have the edge if they have “experience helping maintain a live software product or game”.
Now, in a statement to IGN, Warner has denied that the game will be live service, saying: “Wonder Woman is a single-player action-adventure game set in a dynamic open-world.
“This third person experience will allow players to become Diana of Themyscira and introduce an original story set in the DC Universe, while also featuring the Nemesis System. Wonder Woman is not being designed as a live service.”
Last week Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav, said the company was focused on turning its biggest gaming franchises into live service games.
Wonder Woman was announced at the 2021 Game Awards with a brief teaser trailer, but little has been shared about the game since.
Warner Bros. has confirmed, however, that the game will use the same patented Nemesis system from the Middle-earth games.
