Wow, that city is so open and huge. It looks like the Gotham I've always wanted to Batman around in.

And I like how Barbara looks like an older version of the look they gave her in Arkham Origins.

I'm also hoping for a Batman Beyond Batmobile skin. And an Adam West one, of course.

Is that who she is? Not familiar with the franchise. (Arkham games I mean) So don't know what anyone is supposed to look like.

Barbara is James Gordon's daughter and is the most popular/first iteration of Batgirl.

The official statement from Rocksteady re: the delay is "...awesome takes time. And totally awesome takes a lot of time", so with Warner and DC's consent, they're extending the development in order to make sure it lives up to fans' expectations of the final chapter of the Arkham Trilogy.

Also a little new info about the Arkham Knight. Apparently he utterly despises Batman and wants to kill him, but merely says "You wouldn't understand" when asked why he hates Bats so much. He also seems to know a lot about Bruce's arsenal and tactics, for example instructing his minions not to aim for his chest because that's the best-armored part of the Batsuit. He doesn't quite seem to hate Bats for his "protect the innocent" bit, but remarks that it makes him extremely predictable.

Some of the rumors and info re: Arkham Knight. During an E3 interview a Rocksteady staffer seemingly suffered a slip of the tongue and said Nightwing was one of the people trying to take down Batman, which has lead to some speculating that Dick is the Arkham Knight. Because gamers never engage in insane baseless speculation, right?

A lot of rumors sound like a fantasy wish-list rather than anything concrete, though. Somehow I doubt we're gonna see the Bale-meister's Batsuit in this game.

The only confirmed news is that there's going to be a DLC where Scarecrow's fear toxin turns Gotham into a hellish vision of itself, complete with rampaging zombies.

Gamestop is getting exclusive DLC, a Red Hood story pack.

...And judging by the comments, the Nerdosphere is shitting itself with rage and already talking about how they're going to pirate the game in "revenge".

Pirating the game won't help. Choosing not to pre-order will.

Anyway, i'll probably find myself immersed in the story mode. I can wait two months for it to become a separate DLC.

I am incredibly amused by his literally wearing a red hood.

I'm actually rather happy about the release date. The Summer is when the least amount of titles come out. In fact, it would be great of this, Xenoblade Chronicles X, and The Phantom Pain all came out during three different seasons.

So, Amazon fucked up and their picture for the game's Limited Edition package included what seems to be a gigantic spoiler for the game.

http://l.gamespot.com/1BtlHMp No actual spoilers in this link, but they have a link to another article that contains the original, spoilerous image.

Wasn't that article already posted here?

On an unrelated note, I'm still pretty stunned that Red Hood isn't Arkham Knight and is getting his own DLC. I figured Dick would be the natural choice after Harley. Making him playable on more than challenged maps was pretty high on a lot of wish lists after Arkham City.

Funny how Jason went from "worst Robin" to one of the most visible characters in the Bat series in the last few years.

The game has been pushed back three weeks from June 2nd to June 23rd. The "Officer Down" trailer Hobbes linked earlier was Rocksteady's apology.

Also, IGN Italy is apparently claiming that Arkham Asylum and Arkham City will be getting an upgraded re-release for PS4 and Xbone, but take that with a grain of bat-salt.
