Monolith Productions–the studio engaged on a at present unnamed Wonder Woman game–may be battling the venture, in accordance with Kinda Humorous Gamescast host Greg Miller, who just lately claimed the sport’s improvement is “troubled.”
“Previously year–‘trigger I’ll go away it ambiguous–I’ve talked to an insider, who was like, ‘This recreation’s troubled,'” Miller said during a podcast episode targeted on predictions for Summer time Game Fest. “That’s it, that’s all I’ll say. So I don’t maintain out hope that it’s in a spot to indicate one thing [at Summer Game Fest].”
Simply days after the podcast, Monolith has introduced it is hiring. Particularly, the studio is searching for somebody to fill the position of lead gameplay engineer–a reality that would lend credence to Miller’s claims. The position of lead gameplay engineer requires fairly a little bit of expertise, and saddles whoever takes the place with a considerable amount of duty so far as the sport’s improvement goes. That Monolith (which has been creating the Wonder Woman Game since at the very least 2021, if not earlier) is seeking to fill such a pivotal position this late within the recreation may merely recommend its earlier occupant acquired a higher-paying job supply at one other studio, or just felt ill-equipped for the position and left of their very own volition. However it is also a mirrored image of how nicely the sport’s improvement is (or is not) coming alongside.
Monolith’s Wonder Woman recreation was first unveiled at The Game Awards in 2021. Though followers of the enduring heroine have been hoping to catch one other glimpse of her throughout 2023’s award ceremony, no data was revealed. In reality, the one different replace we’ve got on the state of the Wonder Woman recreation is Monolith’s affirmation that it’s going to not be a live-service title–a rumor that began final yr on account of a special Monolith job posting. As such, any unverifiable data on the state of the sport must be taken with a grain of salt.
