Arkham creators launch new game studio

The gaming industry is abuzz with the news that the founders of Rocksteady Studios, Sefton Hill and Jamie Walker, have established a new London-based AAA game development studio named Hundred Star Games. This move follows their departure from Rocksteady in October 2022 and coincides with the looming release of their final project with the studio, "Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League." By assembling a team featuring not only seasoned industry veterans but also up-and-coming talent, Hundred Star Games aims to forge a new path in the AAA gaming space. As they step into their next venture, the question arises: what innovative experiences will Hundred Star Games bring to gamers across the globe?

As of now, specifics about Hundred Star Games' inaugural project have not been disclosed. The studio has yet to reveal any details concerning the genre, IP, or narrative direction of their first game.

Rocksteady Studios, founded by Hill and Walker, hit the gaming spotlight with their critically acclaimed Batman Arkham series which started with "Batman: Arkham Asylum" in 2009, followed by "Batman: Arkham City" in 2011, and "Batman: Arkham Knight" in 2015. Acclaimed for revolutionizing action-adventure gameplay and the superhero game genre, the Arkham series combined deep narratives, immersive gameplay mechanics, and a gothic artistic vision that defined the team's output. As anticipation builds for the team's next chapter at Hundred Star Games, players eagerly await the innovative potential based on their past precedent of genre-defining work.
