Superman has never had much luck when it comes to solo video games, but it seems that a promising game starring the Man of Steel nearly happened more than 10 years ago. Video game developer @DevSalvatrix recently shared information on Twitter about a Superman game that she was the lead designer on around 2007/2008. The game was reportedly in development at Factor 5, which was responsible for the excellent GameCube game Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader. The Superman game would have apparently coincided with the release of a sequel to Bryan Singer’s Superman Returns (which also didn’t happen).

And videos! This was our first playable prototype during pre-production. Obviously art is still placeholder, though more polished assets are starting to get swapped in such as Supes and Zod.

But it shows brawling while crashing through offices!https://t.co/QI3wEdZBUD
