Warner Bros. previously announced that a solo Wonder Woman game was being developed by Monolith Productions, creating excitement among fans who wanted a special experience focusing on the iconic superhero. The only details revealed about the game so far indicated that it would be a single-player open-world game using the procedurally generated Nemesis system from Monolith’s Middle-earth.
New details about the Wonder Woman game have emerged
But recent developments have sparked concern among fans, with a job posting on Monolith’s website suggesting the Wonder Woman game could adopt a live service model. Live service games, which feature ongoing support, regular updates, and often microtransactions, have become a common trend in the gaming industry. It was feared that Wonder Woman’s solo adventure might follow this trend and change the nature of the gaming experience.
This rumor has gained prominence in light of WB Discovery president David Zaslav’s statement revealing the company’s intention to turn its major franchises into live service titles. Games like NetherRealm’s Mortal Kombat and Injustice have already adopted this model and received mixed reactions from players.

However, WB Games quickly allayed concerns, explaining to IGN that the Wonder Woman game was not designed as a live service experience. This statement reassured fans who were worried about the potential impact of the live service model on the narrative-driven, single-player experience they had come to expect.
Meanwhile, another upcoming title from WB Games, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, has also faced its share of challenges. Originally planned for a spring release, the game’s appearances on online storefronts drew criticism for featuring live service elements such as loadout variations and the in-game store. This departure from Rocksteady’s famous single-player games, particularly the Batman: Arkham series, has sparked concern among fans. What are you thinking?
