Four words
Out of touch executives
They saw the success of the Suicide Squad movie perform well, so they allocated all their resources to one of their best devs that is Rocksteady (not anymore lmao) hoping the same can happen.
Too bad nobody fucking cares about Suicide Squad and just want more Batman, which is pretty obvious when you compare the box office success of the new Batman movie and the new Suicide Squad movie

And also, considering the post credits of Arkham Origins seems to reference Suicide Squad, the game has been in development for over a decade, only to get shut down less than a year later. So yeah, WB fucked up real hard here the moment they try to make a non-Batman game

>Also let's ride the multiverse slop train while we're at it, at the time people were slowly but surely getting tired of multiverse no less. What could go wrong?
What's funny is that they completely wasted the multiverse aspect.
We could've gotten Batkek, Bizarro or even Owlman, instead, we got lesbain mr freeze, and the worst iteration of Joker
