Att Warner Bros är nöjda med utvecklaren Rocksteady Studios vet vi redan om, deras Batman-spel har sålt som smör och en uppföljare är redan under utveckling.

Nu visar det sig att WB är så nöjda med Rocksteady att de köpt upp en majoritetsdel i studion.

"Rocksteady demonstrated its professionalism and extraordinary development abilities with Batman: Arkham Asylum," säger Kevin Tsujihara, president, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Group. "This arrangement is a great strategic fit and we are very pleased to solidify our relationship with this talented development team."

"We are proud to strengthen our association with WBIE, a world class publisher that we have enjoyed working with since we began developing Batman: Arkham Asylum," säger Jamie Walker, studio director, Rocksteady Studios. "The Rocksteady team is very much looking forward to creating more great games based on widely recognized Warner Bros. brands like Batman."

"With the successful release of Batman: Arkham Asylum, a franchise that is a key focus for Warner Bros., Rocksteady has proven that they have the expertise to create hit games with mass appeal," säger Martin Tremblay, president, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. "We are currently working with Rocksteady on the sequel to Batman: Arkham Asylum and look forward to bringing the continuation of the franchise to fans worldwide."

“We are delighted to be deepening our relationship with London-based Rocksteady Studios, one of the UK's most respected games developers and 2009 recipient of the VGA’s coveted ‘studio of the year’ award,” said Josh Berger, president and managing director, Warner Bros. UK. “Rocksteady clearly has the talent, expertise and technology to make great games and we are fortunate to continue working closely with them as we further expand our games portfolio.”
