There are many AAA games that have been locked in a long development, and Monolith’sWonder Womanis one of the most secretive projects on the list. Officially announced back in 2021 with a short, but compelling, teaser trailer, further news regarding the progress ofWonder Womanhas been long-awaited. Now, a recent change to Monolith’s official website has ignited speculation that a fresh reveal is on the horizon.
Monolith’s website has been updated,puttingWonder Womanfront and centeron the opening page. When entering the website, viewers are greeted by a link to the game’s initial announcement teaser and a montage of sneak peeks at Diana’s character design. Although small, this has been one of the most significant updates to come directly from developer Monolith since the game was originally announced. Because of this website change, discussion of an impending big update has been spreading like wildfire.
Monolith Could Be Gearing Up For a Long-Awaited Wonder Woman Reveal
DC’s Iconic Heroine Potentially Being Freed From Development Hell
Earlier this year, reports ofWonder Womanfacing a difficult production processdidn’t bode well for it. These claims fromKinda Funny Gamescasthost Greg Miller led up to the Summer Game Fest 2024. Addressing hope thatWonder Womanwould potentially be at the event, Miller stated, “I don’t hold out hope that it’s in a place to show something.” This was worrying news to hear three years after an official announcement, but Monolith’s website changes could potentially be signaling that the tides have turned for the rumored troubled development cycle. Of course, this update could just be a way for Monolith to freshen its image for the new year, but it hopefully means more.
Over the summer, leaks showcasing alleged artwork ofWonder Womancirculated on the internet. Further leaks have claimed that Diana’s home of Themyscira will play a role in the game’s story, but these reports should be taken with a grain of salt.
It would be a strange move to make such a substantial change to a website without any intention of making an announcement, especially for such an anticipated title. The landscape of DC game adaptations has been facing a rocky road afterSuicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, butWonder Womanis a project that has intrigued many. One of the most compelling aspects of this game is the use ofMonolith’s beloved Nemesis System. This system being implemented in a superhero setting could be a match made in heaven, and a preview of this feature is what many will be hoping to see in a new update.

Gaming’s Biggest Event of the Year is Approaching
Although it’s common to speculate that The Game Awards is a likely stage to announce long-awaited projects, the event is merely a month away. Monolith finally revealing Womanthis close to The Game Awards only adds fuel to the fires of speculation. There is ultimately no way to clearly know, but if this website update is an indication of an upcoming announcement, it will hopefully arrive before the year is up. Such a long wait after the game’s announcement could squash the hopes of many eager for more news, and ending the year on a strong note could be beneficial to reigniting hype.
The Nemesis System was made popular withMiddle-Earth: Shadow of MordorandMiddle-Earth: Shadow of War.
As of now,what Monolith has in storefor gamers with itsWonder Womanadaptation is a huge mystery. Until Monolith outright makes an announcement, everything else is merely hearsay. However, the signs are at least pointing to something on the horizon. On the bright side, this is a clear indication that production onWonder Womanis still alive and well.
