The post showcases the Flying Greysons’ circus event that took place in mid-July. That’s why some DC game fans think that through this post, WB Games Montréal is hinting at a possible July release date for this game.

Platforms

This game will release for PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X / S, PS4, and PS5. So, both the current and last generation console users will experience this game.
