It'll apparently be going for 800 MS points. If that's the case, I may actually pick it up.

So... Hush? And all the other villains "tagged for further investigation at the batcave"?

Uhm.

I don't know guys, I'm excited for new DLC, sure, but Nightwing released pretty much with Arkham City and that was just the challenge maps anyway.

We get one story DLC pack and they're already calling Game of the Year editions a thing?

Am I the only one who was a little disappointed here? If only for the fact that it's just a single story-DLC addition. Apart from that, of course I'm excited. I get to play as Robin, whom I found infinitely more agile and fun to control.

A really short trailer



A few screenshots.


Btw, who's actually getting this?

[CaViE]

Wait, when did Harley become a goth?

Seriously though, I'm looking to try and get it when it's out but as far as story is concerned, I'm hoping for more of the Riddler in this. If it's purely focused around Harley -- and why wouldn't it considering the easter eggs left at Arkham City's conclusion -- then I suppose I understand and can live with it.

But yeah, more Riddler please.

Since this DLC features a lot of Robin, I wonder if those who didn't but the Robin DLC will manage to play as him or not. Otherwise, this is looking shweet. 29 May can't come quicker.

A whopping 9/10 from IGN

I've already declared that Harley Quinn's Revenge is what downloadable content should be based on a 30-minute preview of the single-player story expansion for Batman: Arkham City. Luckily, after playing through the entire two-hour campaign, I'm not going to try and weasel out of that statement. Although I wish the ending was a bit more satisfying, that's nitpicking. Harley Quinn's Revenge offers a fresh take on the gameplay we love and expands the narrative developer Rocksteady has worked so hard to create. This is the type of DLC story-driven games should be pumping out.

Anyone played it yet? I saw it on LIVE ZA earlier today and tried buying it, only to be told I'm 200MSP shy. :'/

[Sir-Ominous]

Does anybody have any idea how big the download size is ?

[CaViE]

It's 900MBs on Xbox LIVE.

A really tiny reason why I might get the Wii U

Good news

Batman: Arkham City Sequel Is Silver Age Prequel, Could Hit PS4, Xbox 720

Rocksteady Studios is working a classic Silver Age comic-inspired prequel for its follow up to Batman: Arkham City.

Published on Jul 11, 2012
Batman: Arkham World isn't the follow up to Rocksteady's Arkham City - the developer is actually working on a Silver Age prequel to the high-rating Batman game, according to Hollywood trade Variety.

The paper reports that Warner Bros. is likely to reteam some of the characters from Netherealm's DC fighter Injustice: Gods Among Us, in a new game from Rockstaeady Studios that continues the developer's Batman series.

Along with Batman, the characters mentioned are Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and the Flash - who all appear in the recently-released Lego Batman 2: DC Superheroes - also headed by the popularity of the Dark Knight detective.

The Silver Age Batman game is described as "highly-stylized" and a prequel " that revolves around Batman's first meeting with the Joker" - expect a more colourful, cartoony look in-line with the DC comic books of the 1950s and 1960s.

The piece also suggests that Warner Bros. didn't reveal the game at E3 as it wanted to concentrate on Injustice instead, and also hints that the new Silver Age project could be part of Warner's wider pre-Justice League of America movie strategy.

The Batman prequel is expected to launch in 2014 at the earliest, meaning it would be a strong contender for next-gen platforms from Sony and Microsoft, still heavily-rumoured to be revealed next year for a release in late 2013/early 2014.

Batman: Arkham Asylum sold over 4 million copies, while Arkham City topped sales of 6 million when it was launched last year.

Another prequel... is good news? Still, Rocksteady have been earning their keep thus far.

[Sir-Ominous]

The only reason it's good news is because it's Rocksteady and it might feature the JL.

[CaViE]

Admittedly the Justice League was all they had left, of the Batman universe (but obviously not DC in its entirety). Maybe the one or two villains they skipped, like that ventriloquist guy. So fair enough. :P

EDIT: But don't mistake me for unexcited. I'm keen to see their representations of, specifically Flash but also the rest of the League.

[Sir-Ominous]

It definitely will be something to see see the entire JL with Batman kicking sweet ass all day. I can't imagine how they'll bring characters like Superman and Green Lantern to the scene. But hey, let's not get too ahead of ourselves here.

[Gammaray]

That's not good news. Mark said he is done with the Joker before, but even more importantly, this debunks the TMNT rumour. So, imo, this sucks balls. AA and AC was great, don't freekin milk it now with a crappy prequel.

[Mikit0707]

The TMNT rumours were debunked a while ago. Insert huge sadface here: :(
