Wonder Woman finally gets her own video game

By Andrew Zucosky Published December 9, 2021

During the Game Awards 2021, a new Wonder Woman game was announced. Not much was shown in the teaser trailer, but it was revealed that it is being developed by Monolith Games. No release date was announced for Wonder Woman.

Geoff Keighley, the host for the Game Awards 2021, mentioned that many games were supposedly leaked before the livestream. However, he assured the audience that Wonder Woman was a surprise announcement for everyone.

The trailer itself was a slow reveal of Wonder Woman herself wielding her iconic Lasso of Truth alongside a voice-over.

Wonder Woman is being developed by Monolith Games, a subsidiary studio of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. Monolith Games is known for developing games like Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, The Matrix Online, and F.E.A.R. Since there was no gameplay revealed during the trailer, it is unknown how Wonder Woman will actually play. Since Monolith Games’ most-known title is Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor and its sequel, Shadow of War, one can assume it will have fast-paced, third-person action.

There is also a strong chance that Monolith will flesh out Themyscira, Wonder Woman’s island of Amazon warriors, in a similar way that Monolith Games did with Middler-Earth and Mordor with Shadow of Mordor.

This will be Wonder Woman’s first stand-alone video game title. She has appeared in various games before such as DC Universe Online. She also had a substantial role in the Injustice series from NetherRealm Studios. She will finally join the other two members of the DC power trio, Batman and Superman, by getting her own game to star in.

I tried ASUS’ ROG Xbox Ally X20, and the 171-inch screen changes everything

Asus made a handheld gaming bundle that thinks it’s a home theater

ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X20 Bundle with XREAL R1 20th Anniversary Edition

Gaming handhelds are great because they are portable (basically small). But that is also one of its biggest weaknesses. I was reminded of that while trying Asus’ new ROG Xbox Ally X20 bundle at Computex 2026. On its own, the Ally X20 is already a more polished version of the ROG Xbox Ally X. It arrives with nice updates that sound minor on paper but make a device feel more complete in your hands. The real surprise, though, was the bundled ROG XREAL R1 Edition 20 Gaming AR Glasses.

I walked in to try the 20th anniversary edition of ASUS' handheld console, but the massive 171-inch screen trick surprisingly stole the show.

From Handhelds to Monitors, these were the biggest glow-ups at Computex 2026

I walked into Taipei expecting spec bumps and walked away convinced four entire categories had levelled up.

Biggest Glowups at Computex 2026

Every year, Computex promises the next big thing. Sometimes that means another processor with a few extra cores, a laptop that's 200 grams lighter, or a monitor that's somehow even faster than the one before it. But every now and then, a trade show surprises you not with a single product, but with an entire category that suddenly feels new again. That's exactly how Computex 2026 felt to me.

After spending days walking the show floor, trying products, talking to engineers, and inevitably getting lost between booths more times than I'd like to admit, one thing became crystal clear. The biggest stories weren't about incremental upgrades. They were about categories, finally shedding old compromises. Monitors became smarter, handhelds became more mature, creator laptops became more versatile, and ARM processors started looking like genuine powerhouses instead of niche alternatives.

Nintendo just made life harder for Switch 2 scalpers

Playtime history now decides who can buy a Switch 2

Mario Kart World plays on a Nintendo Switch 2 screen.

Nintendo is introducing a new account-history requirement for Switch 2 purchases in Japan to keep consoles away from resellers. The move targets the multi-language Nintendo Switch 2 sold through the official Japanese Nintendo Store, which scalpers have been buying in bulk because it can be bought for less in Japan and resold abroad.

The price difference explains why scalpers are interested. In Japan, the multi-language Switch 2 is considerably cheaper compared to some other markets. That gap gives resellers room to import units and mark them up overseas, especially while official stock remains limited. The Japan-exclusive model, which only supports Japanese text and characters, is not affected by the new rule.
