New details and concept art for the upcoming Wonder Woman game from Monolith Productions have leaked. While much about the game has been kept under wraps for a while, a leak containing official details about it has surfaced. The news comes from an online survey that was shared around. DC Comics fans who have been waiting for new information about the game now have their first look at what Diana Prince’s game will look like, as well as who may be the villain.
In a leak that first appeared on Reddit, and then shared over X / Twitter, concept art depicting Wonder Woman and a full synopsis of the game’s story can be seen. The upcoming Wonder Woman game will have Diana returning to the island of Themyscira to battle a new threat to her former home. She will not only encounter the Amazonians but will also reunite with her mother Queen Hippolyta. However, according to the synopsis in the leak, the reunion is not a friendly one. Wonder Woman will have to regain the trust of her fellow Amazons by helping them defend Themyscira.
That’s not all the details that the survey leak tells us about the game. We also have an idea of who is causing trouble for Wonder Woman and her former home. The sorceress Circi is controlling an army of beasts from Greek mythology to invade Themyscira, which includes monsters like gorgons and cyclopes. In addition to Circi, Wonder Woman will apparently meet other iconic DC characters during her adventure, which will include procedurally generated characters as well. Who exactly those DC characters are is not yet known. Much of this will happen as players control Wonder Woman and get to explore the island of Themyscira, which will include Diana’s ability to fly. If the description from the leak is accurate, fans of Wonder Woman will be getting a game that is very authentic to the character.
As far as gameplay details, Monolith’s Wonder Woman game will include free-flow combat that utilizes the Nemesis system from Warner Bros. Games. This is the same system that was used in games like Middle-Earth: Shadow of War, where procedurally generated enemies will remember you and build grudges over the course of the game. As the leak describes, Wonder Woman will be fighting monstrosities that are directly inspired by Geek mythology and fantasy. The concept art in the leak shows Wonder Woman fighting a big lion, as well as using her famous lasso to battle animal hybrid enemies on a battlefield. The leaked description mentions that players will be able to use the Lasso of Truth and other gifts from the Greek gods to battle the enemies that she encounters.
Although there is no date or window for Wonder Woman yet, DC fans were hoping to see new details on the game at Summer Game Fest. Wonder Woman was first revealed to be in development back in December 2021. Unfortunately, Monolith didn’t show anything related to Wonder Woman during the show. In the weeks prior to the show, various reports with sources close to the project mentioned how the game was in a troubled state during development. Whether this is true or not is anyone’s guess, but things appear to be moving forward with Wonder Woman in some capacity based on the nature of the Reddit leak. The leak also shows that the Wonder Woman game will also be priced at $69.99, and available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
