No, we still don’t know what the hell Rocksteady Studios has been working on these last few years. And no, it’s not a Superman game, and it most likely has nothing to do with Batman.

According to job postings at Rocksteady’s website, the company is getting ready to pull the lid off its next game....

Wait, is that right? What year is this? Okay, just checking.

The group has also snapped up popular esports platform Faceit for $500m, and will now merge the two.

While Nvidia and AIBs are profiting from the “success” of the launch when it comes to pure sales numbers, there’s one group of people who have profited even more during the first few months of the life cycle: scalpers....
