In a bad-vibes moment, they're denying a huge outlet like IGN a review code. No matter what I think of IGN in particular (nothing good tbh), that's not something I can find a real explanation for other than "We made DC's Gollum and want to avoid bad press as long as we can".

Wait, why are the two related? People will be playing one and not have time for the other once it comes out?

I agree, the two games are not related and are in two completely different genres

Yup. That's exactly it. There a lot of people in the "no particular fandom" category that can determine a sales winner and loser.
