Gotham Knights and Hogwarts Legacy may be getting concrete release dates and new information soon, according to new Warner Bros. job listings.
WB Montreal’s Gotham Knights you may receive new information soon. New job listings indicate that Warner Bros. is looking to hire people who can help in the gaming market like Gotham Knights and Hogwarts legacy, indicating that the studio is preparing to double both titles.
Gotham Knights was revealed last summer at DC Fandome and shows a new side of the Batman universe in video games. After Batman’s death, names like Red Hood, Robin, Nightwing and Batgirl team up to keep gotham city safe and apparently go after the ominous Court of Owls. The game can be played individually or in cooperation and will be a unique direction for WB Montreal, especially after the team’s work in Batman: Origins of Arkham.
Details are scarce since the game was announced, but it appears that the WB is preparing to present both Gotham Knights and Hogwarts legacy, an RPG set in the Harry Potter universe. James Sigfield pointed on Twitter (via ComicBook.com) that WB is hiring an “Associate Brand Marketing Manager” and a “Submission Specialist”. Both will help to play important roles in the marketing of both titles, probably meaning that the publisher has a good idea of when the two titles will be released and wants to start putting more focus on that through marketing and getting the game ready for launch.
Hogwarts legacy was postponed to 2022, but the fact that the WB is optimistic about mapping a marketing strategy may mean that it will still be launched in the first half of next year. Unless WB is planning its own event for the spring, similar to DC Fandome, it is highly possible that the company will provide concrete launch dates for both.Ogwarts Legacy and Gotham Knights at the E3 digital event (or similar summer-related event). This is pure speculation, but since the WB will need to hire people and develop a marketing strategy internally, it will take a little time for all of this to be truly seen by the public.
However, it shows confidence in both titles. If WB is planning a suitable marketing roadmap for Gotham Knights and Hogwarts legacy, this means that the company has release dates in sight for both titles. Delays are possible, of course, but it seems unlikely that they will receive major impulses unless something goes wrong catastrophically and is not negotiable. That said, it looks like both games will arrive sooner or later.
