​

In the explosive finale to the Arkham series, Batman faces the ultimate threat against the city he is sworn to protect. The Scarecrow returns to unite an impressive roster of super villains, including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn, to destroy The Dark Knight forever.

Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady's uniquely designed version of the Batmobile, which is drivable for the first time in the franchise. The addition of this legendary vehicle, combined with the acclaimed gameplay of the Batman Arkham series, offers gamers the ultimate and complete Batman experience as they tear through the streets and soar across the skyline of the entirety of Gotham City.

Batman: Arkham Knight is based on DC Comics' core Batman license and will be available exclusively for the PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system, Xbox One, the all-in-one games and entertainment system from Microsoft, and Windows PC. The game is scheduled for release worldwide in 2014.

Spoiler: Old info

Apparently GameStop have received promotional material for what many assume is for the new Batman game being headed by the original developers, Rocksteady. Ready to take the dive into Gotham so soon?

Rocksteady's back! Kevin Conroy is back! A fully-realized Gotham City with a playable Batmobile! This sounds SO perfect to me!

OP updated.

Oh, and here's the cover art...

I'm excited to see what they can do when the newest generation of consoles as the trailer looked amazing.
Though I'm glad this will be the final in the Arkham series, as it feels like its time they dropped the name.

Harley Quinn looks more Human like(?)

Oh yeah! I can't wait!! I am happy to know Kevin Conroy is back!

 

[Average Box]

Can't wait to see the Collector's Editions for this one.

There's a good chance it'll have one, Batman has been pretty reliable with the SteelBooks since the start.

That's how I was!!!! Just like Joaquin Phoenix

 

[RAGEatGAME]

That trailer made me happy. I just want to give them my money NOW! I am going to be playing on PC this like I did with Origins. Though the less said about Origins, the better.

Why so much Hate towards Origins?? I started playing a while back but it all seems to be the same as the previous 2 installments. I've probably played about 2 hours into the storyline. Am I missing something?

The trailer has changed my plans.I was going to hang on to the last gen consoles for awhile longer, but this has me ready to start saving up for that ps4 ASAp!Comes out later in the year which is perfect.Batman: Arkham Knight,The order,Infamous :Second Son and Destiny for the holidays sounds really good right now.

Just not really engrossing as the first two.

I played about two hours into the story too, and that's about as far as I got. The game felt, to me, like it was a step backwards from the first Arkham game. I look forward to seeing those devs take another crack at Batman, I think deadlines got the best of them.

This looks superb!! Bring on some gameplay footage!!

Needless to say, this will be an instant purchase for my PS4!

mg: I Have all the the Batman Arkham series on the ps3, but hands down this looks like the one to have in the series, the trailer looks insane and the fact that you will be able to get behind the wheel of the Batmobile makes it that much better.........cannot wait for October to come sooner, this will look brilliant on my ps4.

Thanks to my buddy John for sharing this...

Here is some general info about Batman: Arkham Knight.

Batman Arkham knight General Info:
•Next-gen only.
•Single player only. No multiplayer.
•Arkham Knight isn’t just the name of the game, it’s also the name of a brand new villain. Rocksteady is working with DC’s Geoff Johns to create the character from scratch.
•Batman starts the game in the Arkham City suit, but gets a new costume early on.
•Takes place in a central zone of Gotham City split into 3 islands. 5 times bigger than Arkham City.
•The level of detail in Gotham City is some of the most impressive Game Informer has ever seen in a video game.
•Takes place one year after Arkham City.
•With The Joker dead, Gotham’s villains come together to try to take down Batman.
•Scarecrow, Two-Face, Penguin, and Harley Quinn are all confirmed.
•Kevin Conroy is back as Batman. Troy Baker is Two-Face, Nolan North is Penguin, Tara Strong is Harley Quinn, and Wally Wingert is Ridder.
•Batman visits with Oracle in the game, she’s not just a voice in his earpiece anymore.
•Cut scenes are all done in game, so it doesn’t feel like you’re playing a game and then watching a movie.

•All quick-fire gadgets can now be used during flight.

•Interrogations are back.
•Batman can incorporate the environment into his combat combos like never before.
•Fear takedowns allow Batman to take out multiple enemies in slow motion, as long as he isn’t spotted.
•This is Rocksteady’s last Batman game. There will be a clear ending to their Arkham trilogy. It’s possible that WB Games Montreal may still make Batman games set in the Arkham Origins time period.

Batmobile Info:
•Rocksteady set out to make the best car in any game ever.
•It’s so detailed it would take up the space of an entire Xbox 360 game.
•It’s the only drive-able vehicle.
