“My daughter, a new threat comes to our shores, and I must call you home,” Hippolyta’s narration explains, possibly revealing some early story details. “Restore what has been broken. Unite old enemies. Forge new bonds. You are a hero, but you can be more. You can be a leader. You are Wonder Woman.”

Additional details were light, but it’s probably safe to assume that Wonder Woman will follow the same format as Monolith’s most recent work. We’re talking third-person, melee combat with an emphasis on subduing enemies and commanding armies. Then again, who knows: Maybe the devs are going back to their Blood and F.E.A.R. roots and making a first-person Wonder Woman game instead. That would be quite a curveball!

Despite being considered one of DC Comics’ most important characters alongside Superman and Batman, it feels like Wonder Woman has always gotten the short end of the stick when it comes to adaptations. Monolith’s upcoming game is her first headlining video game role since she debuted all the way back in 1941, so let’s hope the studio brings the entirety of its award-winning pedigree to bear and gives Wonder Woman the video game she’s always deserved.
