The next game from Rocksteady, developer of Batman: Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, could be out as soon as next year if job listings are any indication.

A new Kotaku report from Internet sleuth Superannuation highlights the similarities between certain Rocksteady job postings on its own website and those on a job website . That's significant because those on the latter site don't mention Rocksteady by name, but they do peg its location as being in the United Kingdom. (Rocksteady is based in London.) What's most notable in the latter listings is the following claim, mentioned in each of the three, albeit in slightly reworded fashion: "[O]ur current project has been tipped to be one of the most successful games of 2014."One of the listings describes the game as "an extremely ambitious AAA 3rd Person/Action Adventure Game." Batman isn't mentioned by name, but Superannuation notes that the Arkham prequel rumored last year could have, in fact, been the recently released Arkham Origins In other words, it's possible Rocksteady's project is another Arkham game. The existence of such a game was confirmed earlier year by Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy, who did not return to his longtime role for Arkham Origins as Roger Craig Smith took the reigns. Despite this, Conroy claimed at one point that he was working "on the next Arkham," a statement he soon after clarified by explaining that he is in a new Arkham game that is not Arkham Origins . Whether or not this new game was being developed by Rocksteady was never clarified, but it now certainly appears possible.Considering the dip in quality with Arkham Origins, would you be happy with Rocksteady returning for another go at the Arkham series? Or would you prefer to see what it could do with something else, be it a new IP or an existing one? Let us know what you'd like to see from Rocksteady in the comments.
