FunPlus and WB Interactive have announced a new partnership to develop DC: Dark Legion, a new strategy game set in the world of DC.
Today brings the first announcement for DC: Dark Legion, and upcoming mobile strategy game that tasks players with recruiting heroes to take down twisted versions of the Justice League.
Licensed by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment on behalf of DC, DC: Dark Legion is an action-packed strategy game where players can recruit their favorite DC Super Heroes and Super-Villains to fight for survival, justice, and freedom in a global multiplayer battle. Players will be immersed in an all-new story set in the DC universe as they find themselves embroiled in an epic struggle against The Batman Who Laughs and his Dark Knights, twisted versions of the Justice League introduced in the best-selling DC comic series Dark Nights: Metal. As they fight to stop The Batman Who Laughs and his army from destroying everything they know, players take on the role of an agent from the 31st century tasked with leading the world’s greatest Super Heroes against the overwhelming threat from the Dark Multiverse.
In DC: Dark Legion, fans will embark on an authentic journey across the DC universe, joining forces with renowned Super Heroes including Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, The Flash, Black Adam, Green Arrow and many more. Players can build their own hero base, level-up their superpowers and equipment, and lead a squad of their favorite characters to fight powerful villains and protect the universe alongside their friends.
“FunPlus is excited to partner with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC on another innovative game project with the announcement of DC: Dark Legion,” said Chris Petrovic, Chief Business Officer of FunPlus. “This immersive journey into the DC universe is a testament to the collective passion, expertise and creativity of all involved, and we look forward to delivering an unforgettable gaming experience to DCU fans worldwide.”
FunPlus is no stranger to the DC universe, having previously collaborated with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment to add legendary DC Super-Villain The Joker as a playable character with an original story campaign in State of Survival, one of the company’s most popular games.
More details on DC: Dark Legion will be shared down the line as the game is set to launch on mobile devices in 2024.
