I wanted to ask this question because i have been searching the web on this topic and i wanted to know from you guys who do yall think should be the next main villian in the next game and why. And where should the next game setting take place. Here are why i choosed these six characters:
Scarecow: Becuase in Arkam City it shows that his mask appears, hinting that he is still alive, and because in the boat he messed one of Jokers Goons guys mind inside the boat. Also because he is trying to spread his Fear Toxin gas in Gotham.
Penguin: Because getting revenge from Batman for defeating him in the Iceburg Lounge.
Two- Face: Because getting revenge from Batman and Catwoman.
Hush: Because in Arkam City he escaped from Arkam to Gotham to get revenge from Wayne who is BATMAN.
Poison Ivy: To get revenge from everybody and Batman and Catwoman.
:storm:
Although I am pretty sure It was just a rumor, last I heard the next Batman Arkham game was going to be a prequel showing the early years of Joker and Batman and include other DC heroes.
If it is a sequel While I would love to see Posion Ivy be the main villain, I just don't think they would do that, so I would probably have to go with Harley Quinn, at least that is who I would like to see. But I know Scarecrow had those messgaes in the game saying he was planning a return, so it could be him.

Midnight can you please vote and i agree with i would love to see poison ivy as the main villian also i didnt put Harley Quinn up there because she is in the dlc Harley Quinn Revenge which she is already the main villian in the game, but i will add her in to the list for you to vote. She could be a main villian in the next game hopefully. And i think they would add other DC hereos too i agree with you on that too. Just like Batman Lego 2. :storm:
I vote for Joker. Awwwwww he ain't in there.
A master scheme developed by Hush seems interesting. Making a mini "quest" in the previous game and continuing it in a later game (after the prequel) sounds interesting.
Im definetly interested in a sequel in wich scarecrow is the main villain!Hes appereance realy blew me away in the first game!
But that would mean that the game would be super twisted and you couldn know whats real or not...wich was cool in the asylum contex but i dunno i preffered the more controled nature of arkham city.(i felt a lot like i was in the animated series there)
Then theres hush,man i loved his brief apereance in the game and the bat's comment "i will deal with him tommorow"...or something like that.
For me harley blew her chance completly in the dlc revenge story.I dont think she deserves such a high place.I mean an insane harley who has no mental balance and definatly no briliant plan... when she has an obsession with joker denying her to think clearly .I mean,if she did act in her own mind she could actualy pull it off but seriously her being a main villain in an entire game...just no

Ok I will add Joker cause the inmates did say that Joker may be playing Batman. :storm:
I added Zsasz, Joker, Black Mask, Deadshot, because Zsasz could possibly escape his cage, Black Mask had a cameo appearance in the prison at the beginning of the game, Deadshot its possible that he broke out of that train looking lifter, Red Hood because to get revenge on Batman and because Batman did not treat him right. :storm:
The next game has been announced.

Fun fact is, Mark Hamill said goodbye to voicing Arkham Joker, and I barely doubt the tweet was neccasary after we all (SPOILER FOR Arkham City) saw him dying (END OF SPOILER), so I just think this is how it all began for Batman, without including Joker?

Penguin looks odd without the bottle in his eye xD
Black mask was (a bit) expected, but still exciting
Most excited for Falcone though, he's awesome

Well the reason why Penguin looks like that without his patch is beacause Batman Origins takes place before Arkham Asulym and Arkham City. :storm:
I know, just so used to Penguin with atleast a monocle, it looks weird not having anything in his eyes :P

NEW UPDATE:
Everyone now they had listed 6 new villians in the besides Black Mask, Deathstroke, Penguin, and Falcone.
The othe villians in Batman Arkham Orgins are Scarecrow, Joker, Killer Croc, Deadshot, and Bane. If you dont believe me heres proof.

And a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKKejGfHWaA
:storm:
I actually heard something about multiplayer. As in, the player would be part of either Joker's or Bane's gang and the objective would be to take down Batman and/or Robin
I could barely see the marketing pic, the vid helped though
I also heard about the multiplayer, seems like you will be able to play as villains, sweet :o
Sorta dissapointed not to see any of the Gotham Sirens in there (Harley, Ivy, Catwoman) since pretty much all of them are famous in Batman's rogue gallery, but who knows, maybe later :P
I'm still confused about the Joker bit, Mark Hamil said goodbye to voicing the Joker, what now? New voice actor?

I really hope Ivy, Harley and Catwoman will make it in. Maybe they will do a little origin to how Joker made Harley go insane or something?

Agree midnight they can do that they might make a side mision for Catwoman such as how she bacame Catwoman, they can have a side mission on how Posion Ivy became the way she is, and for Harley Quinn since the Joker is in it they can show how Joker brakes out of jail by using Harly Quinn. But im really happy that Scarecrow is going to be in the game again cant wait to see how Black Mask and Deathstroke turns out in the game. Also cant wait to play as the villians in multiplayer mode. :storm:

These are all good ideas!
I was just thinking too since in Arkham Asylum, Ivy is in the Asylum, they could show how she got there in the first place.

That is true also for Catwoman they can do a side mission of how she become Catwomen , because In Arkham Asulym it shows her mask and also her claws in the old arkham mansion assuming that she was in Arkham Asulym as a inmate and broked into the old mansion to retrieve her gear which is shown in Arkham City. Heres a pic of what im talking about in Arkham Asulym:

Thanks for more info Midnight and that would be cool playing as Deathstroke and i thought the same way i thought they was going to use a different voice actor for Bman. :storm:
Further info about Deathstroke becoming a playable DLC if you pre order and talks about another mission involving Joker and Bane gang trying to take down Batman and Robin. Also confirmed Deathstoke as one of the eight main villians the other seven should be Black Mask, Bane, Scarecrow, Penguin, Joker, Deadshot, and Killer Croc. Hopefully they can add side missions such as Catwoman, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, and Hush.
http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/05/19/deathstroke-will-be-playable-in-batman-arkham-origins
:storm:
Whoa...playable Deathstroke. This game needs to have a GOTY edition like the previous games, cuz I will need this! :D
Yeah it does,i have no intention of preordering something if i have to download it later anyway!I mean seriously,i have no internet for the ps3...
Too bad a game of the year edition comes like half or a whole year after the normal one comes out...(correct me if im wrong)
Trailer is out! No gameplay :/, the newly revealed assasin is Deadshot, before his mechanical implants/stuff and whatnot
Trailer looks meh, what I liked about Arkham City is that it was already appearant from the trailer that Batman was gonna go trough a hell he couldn't escape from, nothing he could do to prevent stuff from happening, this looks more like a regular Batman adventure :P, I do and don't like the fact that its most likely all of Gotham city you can explore, once again, it feels to 'if Batman is so sick of this why doesn't he just leave?'-ish :P
Still, so little is known about the game, so I'll await judgement :P

Not to speculate or anything, but wouldn't it be funny if an easter egg was hidden in the Final offer? Considering Arkham City had a scarecrow easter egg around the same spot.. xD
Would love to see an old Arkham City

I'm beginning to like this game less and less
''We should totally ditch the voice actors that voiced the Batman characters for so many years!''
''Yeah, good idea!''
''We should do a prequel, because LOL Joker''
''Yeah, good idea!''
''Oh, and Bane and his comic roots, forget the roots, take the movie mask!''
''Yeah, good idea!''
The fact that they did a prequel isn't an idea I like, but it's really showing now that this isn't a game Rocksteady would develop
On a brighter note, now that Bane ist a heap of muscle, they should be able to show gamers his smarter side
Sorry for double posting
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWzQg48lG5A
Batman meets Bane & Jokeeeerr
I like Bane's look, and Joker's voice
The gameplay looks a little bright though, hoping for darker area's
I'd really love to see Deathstroke and the Joker,the former 'cause it's an awesome character but underrated,the latter 'cause it's the bloody Joker!
I want Scarecrow in the game hopefully he is. :storm:

Looks great! I love it and i'm glad to see deathstroke His design is awesome as well :)
also, that would be cool playing as Deathstroke!!!!! yay
but ...when will they make bosses playable I mean real big bosses like ivy with plant control or bane? That would be epic! .. at least for me..
But i would really love to see poison ivy in this one even if i don't think she will be part of the cast I'm just saying that would be great..
I agree with mj fan! I'd love to see more playable villains and I'd also love to see batman facing catwoman in this game.
Yeah Owl City and Mj yall are right Batman should be able to fight Catwoman when she becomes a burgular and thief. Same for Harlequinn when she meets Joker. And sorry for keep saying this but did anybody heard about Scarecrow being in the game I really want him in the game. :storm:
I am really excited for this game, but I must say I am a bit disappointed that not even a single female character has been announced to be in the game yet :/

Yeah. They might appear as side jobs villians.:storm:
So, why did they turn Copperhead into a woman?! Wasn't there enough women to work with?!
Edit: Okay, my bad, didn't know DC changed up Copperhead too in this New 52 world. But, what did I expect...Still, I don't give these guys much of a chance. If the game succeeds (and not just because it's part of a great franchise and some of the characters ride the coattail of the movies), I'll be the first one to admit how great they are. Until that happens, I'll remain sceptical about this game.
They have characters like Ivy,Harley, Man-bat, Tweedledee and Tweedledum, Mad hatter, Humpty Dumpty even, and they chose...Copperhead, freaking Copperhead
Her/his/its trailer looked cool, but this game picks out the worst villains, I know that this is what the game is trying to do (shine the spotlight on unpopular villains)
But its like picking freaking Kiteman
I hope they pick a few better villains, Bruno Mannheim for example, I feel like his canibalism fits right into the Arkhamverse, such a shame -_-
I really hope they can actually deliver a good enough game
I still hear nothing about Scarecrow :/. :storm:
Catwoman is not gonna be in it :( at least not in story for sure :/ because the handheld game they're coming out with...operation blackgate I think it's called shows the first meeting of Batman and Catwoman and in the timeline of the games it happens after Batman Arkham City Origins so there's no way she'd be in since they don't meet till after this game...hope that makes sense XD
Also when they announced Copperhead they also sort of teased at Batgirl being in the game too ;D
Chrismarblez is right Copperhead the New 52 one is going to be in Batman Arkham Origins.

As for Batgirl, I could honestly see them putting her in the game. Explaining the way she became Oracle and what she did before.
I guess this copperhead

The inner fangirl in me is pleased.
The other stuff looks cool aswell xD
I saw that too! I hope she appears in this game! :D
I'm especially curious how this plays, do we get to play as the gang in a 1st person perspective, 3rd person perspective, and how the guns will work in a game like Arkham, sooooooo excited, why isn't it october already XD

Well im going to preorder the game from gamestop. So let me get this straight when i preorder the game i get Deathstroke, and 2 Black Mask challange maps? :storm:
I believe Deathstroke is if you pre-order at Amazon, Gamestop is 2 extra Black mask challange maps (don't underestimate these, the DLC challange maps are most of the time completely new area's, like the meathouse/Batcave/Wayne manor in Arkham city)

That suck i would like to play as Deathstroke too but is playing as Deathstroke is like playing as Catwoman in Arkham City in story mode? :storm:
No idea, he's most likely singe player though (can't be used in Multiplayer) Still, you can play as Joker & Bane in Multiplayer, so I don't really need Deathstroke when the game comes out, I might buy him later, who knows
You can preorder it from GameStop and get both the Black Mask challenge maps and get to play as Deathstroke.

ok thx! :storm:
http://www.egmnow.com/articles/news/batman-arkham-origins-collectors-edition-revealed/
Looks sweet & Pricey xd
My only 'concern' though, the statue, Joker was gonna have a minor role in this right? Not a big one? Not a ''Guess what boys & Girls, Joker's now the main villain!'' Kind of role? I think if Joker truly was such a small part, they'd went with a statue involving Black mask or Deathstroke... This is actually one of the only games were I don't want Joker to play a big role, as it was promised....Still eagerly awaiting october :P
I want my Scarecrow in the game!!!! :storm:

A new trailer: http://batman-news.com/2013/08/20/new-batman-arkham-origins-trailer-reveals-firefly-story-and-gameplay/
New villain appears to be Firefly.
:storm:
Very intressting, I dont believe Firefly to be an assasin, mainly due to the line ''Gotham's gonna burn!"' Which means he wants Gotham to suffer, not specificly Batman
Whats also intressting to note is the outfit on the thugs you see in the trailer, especially the first group, prison outfits, meaning that we'll be able to go to Arkham Asylum/Blackgate? (further proof to support this is where Batman fights Deathstroke)
There are multiple copperheads in the trailer, I like the idea Origins gives, that they're an organization, which also explains the diffrent genders..
Sooooo excited :D
Here are pics of Firefly and info for those who don't know who he is.

In Blackgate that is, looks nice, I probally will buy that one to, ever since Joker mentioned Blackgate in Arkham Asylum I've been wondering what it looks like
Check out this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=5FbuARRH4fI
So Grundy & Bronze tiger are in it..Intressting, although im like 100 % sure DC really wants Grundy to become popular, he already appeared in so many titles (AC : Lockdown, AC, DCUO, Injustice etc.) Defnitly getting this though, it looks awesome
The game producer of Batman Arkham Origins said that Arkham Origins city will be twice as large as Arkham city. http://www.inquisitr.com/950772/batman-arkham-origins-city-size-to-be-double-that-of-arkham-city/. :storm:

Intressting stuff :
Second Screenshot ''Gotham now 2nd most dangerous'' Wonder what the 1st one is? Possibly a little reference to Grand Theft auto, where Liberty city was once again announced as 'most dangerous city in the world'
4th imagine : ''Boiler deck, Final round'' Suggesting Penguin uses his ship as some sort of arena, and Deathstroke is the 'final boss' so to speak
They confirmed two new characters the Riddler and Lady Shiva. I kind of figured the Riddler because his riddler trophies but at least they put in Lady Shiva who what yall wanted to be in the Batman Arkham game series.Now just waiting for Scarecrow, Catwoman, and Harley Quinn.http://www.comingsoon.net/news/gamenews.php?id=109266. :storm:
Shiva wasn't really a big suprise, excited for Riddler, hope he's similair to Arkham City
My main problem is :
Scarecrow - Scarecrow has, if you think about it, a very low chance to be in the game, sure he would exist, but he wouldn't be an assasin, and I think they're only pretty much only revealing assasins right now
-Female's - Harley does, and does not have a huge chance to appear, we know she exists in the timeline, due to the multiplayer trailer, and the game has little to no (depending how you look at it) female's (Copperhead, hence the depending how you look at it), however, we saw (in my opinion) pretty long footage of the Joker without her..soooo...
-Catwoman- Already appears in Blackgate, highely unlikely she'll appear in the two at the same time, not impossible, but highely unlikely
Im still wanting Ivy to! Comeon, the big awesome thing about Arkham Asylum & City was the amount of sexyness Harley and Ivy (and later on Catwoman) put into the game xD

I kinda regret trading in my Batman Arkham Asulym and Arkham City, but I kinda want to get them back since I already pre ordered Origins. Sooo should I buy them both back?? :storm:
Fully up to you, I dont usually trade games, so I still have both of em, I'm personally playing trough Arkham Asylum & City all over again to wait for Arkham origins, consider it my Arkham marathon xD

Yeah I think that is why they have the Batwing in the game to travel to Gotham City, Arkham City or Arkham Asulym or maybe even Bludhaven.

I have the game and on my console it is not glitchy or buggy it may be just theres but mines work prefect. :storm:
Its Ok. I got the game, and am already at 50% (completed the main story) my only real complain is that after a while of playing (a long time though, 2 hours?) the game starts to kind of lag (and I am playing on a console)
Other than that, it's a good game, not as good as Arkham Asylum/Arkham City (why Arkham is even in this title is beyond me) but good

Yeah I love the game just a glimpse of what happens before Arkham Asylum and Arkham City but overall its shows how each character developed in the game. Also in the court house it is different because in Arkham City their a jail cell underground and in Origins theres not.
And whats the easiest way finding the riddlers data packs?
:storm:
For the Riddler data packs, I just tracked down all the informants and negoiated them, after that, track down all of the datapacks
some are a little weird for me though, so I youtubed the secret room

:storm:
I loved that part :D
I was playing trough it, and the longer I got into the scene (where you play as the Joker in his mind) I was like ''Is that.....Could it be?'' And I remained unsure until she was all like ''Yes yes I understand!''
So glad they put this in, It's not the exact origin, but its was really good :)
(for the one's wondering, the lack of kickass, popular vilainesses in this game is because Paul Dini wasn't involved, where as in Arkham Asylum and Arkham city, he was)

:storm:
I'm glad she got included!
I just finished the game and it was amazing i justed wish they showed how Harleen Quinzel becomes Harly Quinn. Hopefully the extra bonus mission dlc shows that but i knida of doubt it because it shows Deathstroke getting another contract to kill the Batman. I was kinda down about Scarecrow not being in it to. But now i know why you cant go to different gothams in Arkham City, because of Firefly. But what are yall feedbacks who do yall wish appeared in the game? :storm:
The DLC will be about Batman's time in Asia, training under the League of Assasins
Deathstroke's contract was a contract for the suicide squad (Intressting thingy I discovered : Harleen Quinzell is carrying the exact same document in her character thropy, It could just be lazyness on the developers part, but since she was a member of the Suicide Squad aswell.... it only massively scews with continueity if they want her to be a part of it already)
Why Scarecrow wasn't in it...Well, probably the exact same reason Harley Quinn wasn't in it, they weren't driven to insanity yet..
What I never really got is why it was called Arkham Origins, when the only prision in the game is Blackgate but this should shed some light on that : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62GL9HwE8t8 Quite a cool thingy to put in..
I wasn't dissapoitent with the game, but its just so darn buggy, I cant continue my new game +, the multiplayer matchup system is really weird (shame, because its quite an enjoyable Multiplayer). So it didn't really live up to Asylum or City, and it was pretty clear that it was made by another company
(Also, I think it was one really dumb move to let WB Montreal develop this, seeing as how this is their first game, they should've started with a less high-expecting franchise)
but..There is hope, Kevin Conroy (the voice actor of Batman in Asylum and City and pretty much every animation ever) accidently spilled a while ago that he is working on the next arkham game, fun fact : Kevin Conroy didn't appear in Origins... Also, Rocksteady is looking for people who want to work on a 3rd person action game... :D

Thank you so muchhhhh Polygone. And yeah i was kinda dissapointed about the game too i really thought they was going to show Harley Quinn become who she is after the Joker and her was talking to each other in the prison.

What I am going to do is just buy the Xbox one I mean they should of made this game for both Xbox one and 360 because I have been holding on Batman Arkham Origins, Asylum, and City so when Knight comes out I will have all the Batman Arkham games. I was going to play all of them in order but oh well. :( :storm:
I thought Joker is dead
When I heard about this I immediately checked it out! And me and my little brother are over the max excited. This looks like it's going to be one of the better Arkham games. And of course I'm thrilled about the DLC, so no surprise I voted for Harleyy :jumping: :hyper:

EXCITED!

Scarecrow does look more evil than he was an Arkham Asylum. I'm kind of disappointed because I was collecting the Arkham series thinking they would all still be on the Xbox 360 but now I have to get Batman Arkham Knight for pc. I will still have Batman Arkham Origins, Asylum, and City for Xbox 360 but Batman Arkham Knight for the pc. I'm going to play them in order so It will be like a movie playing the whole series.:storm:

The gameplay looks amazing. I really love the bat-mobile, it looks like it will be fun to use.
Some new info from the FB page
Harley's DLC will actually be a Story pack (so no challanges only, but an actual story yeeh)
Also, It seems Scarecrow will be raising undead to use as his army, how he is even able to do this, I have no idea, but I guess his gas plays a part in that

That is really cool I don't care as long I get to play as Harley Quinn I'm down with it. But I also think Scarecrow can raise people from the undead because in Arkham Asulym when he used his fear gas to torment Batman skeletons came out of the ground. So it is possible he can do that.

Yeah, that would mean that Batman's supposed to be under control of the fear gas in Scarecrow sequences
Kinda makes me think that in the end of Arkham Knight, we see Batman still in Arkham Asylum struggling with fear gas and the past two games were just dreams xD

Superman in Batman Arkham Knight?
"Batman Arkham Knight, the upcoming action-adventure from Rocksteady Studios is rumored to introduce the DC comic book character Superman and other characters.
As confirmed, Arkham Knight will be the last game amongst the Batman Arkham series and this latest video game is the fourth main game. The new game is most likely to be a more entertaining game than its predecessors as rumors have indicated that the game will have more characters.
Arkham Knight is likely to have Superman in the game, this information was from an IMDB voice cast that showed an updated list featuring some new and unexpected games. A screenshot of the leak was captured by Gamerspective.
The leak revealed that Superman will be voiced by TV actor, George Newbern. But the question we ask is why would Superman be part of the last series of Arkham? Does it mean Rocksteady will be drifting to make Superman games once Arkham Knight is out? Or will Superman enter for a cameo role, we will have to wait and watch.
More New Characters Surface
The leaked voice over list also includes Harvey Dent aka Two-Face voiced by Troy Baker, Harleen Quinzel aka Harley Quinn voiced by Tara Strong, The Penguin voiced by Nolan North, Calendar Man voiced by Maurice LaMarche, Robin voiced by Scott Menville, Azrael voiced by Khary Payton and Nightwing voiced by Quinton Flynn.
During a Q&A session, the "Arrow" actor, Stephan Amell had said that "I'm voicing Green Arrow for a popular video game franchise," when asked about his upcoming projects.
?
The only franchise now being made is Batman Arkham series. Rocksteady has neither confirmed nor denied the rumor.
Release Date
The game was announced during the E3 2014. The game will feature for the first time, a playable Batmobile. The game is expected to take place a year after the events of Arkham City, after Joker's death. Joker's death brings a new villain, Arkham Knight to Gotham city.

It could be pretty interesting to see some other characters in the game, but only if they fit them in correctly.
Not higehly likely, when it was rumored the JL would appear in Arkham Origins, fans went nuts, they didn't like it one bit, so I don't think we'll be seeing any other JL members soon.
Calender Man, Robin, Nightwing and Azreal do come as a suprise though, glad to see them returning.
I saw on facebook that Red hood, superman, nightwing, and damian Wayne would be in this game too.
Batman Arkham Knight: What We Know So Far
Villains
Arkham Knight brings back several of Batman's most notorious enemies, including the Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn. They're united under Scarecrow with a single mission: to finally kill Batman.
Scarecrow uses a fear toxin to cause widespread panic among Gotham's citizens. Most of them have fled the city. Gotham is effectively controlled by these supervillains, along with their army of mercenaries and drones. Batman and an outgunned police department are the only ones standing in their way.
Batman's gallery of rogues has an unexpected ally: the Arkham Knight. Arkham Knight has a high-tech suit of armor that resembles Batman's, except with the logo of Arkham on his chest. This mysterious character has a grudge against the Dark Knight for some unknown reason. The Arkham Knight's identity has been the subject of much speculation, with fans theorizing that he's really Hush, Jason Todd, or another character from Batman lore.
Rocksteady Studios
Batman: Arkham Knight is being developed by Rocksteady Studios, the creator of Batman: Arkham Asylum and Arkham City. They've described Arkham Knight as the "finale" to the series.
Rocksteady is crafting the game with Unreal Engine 3, the same tech behind Asylum and City. The visuals are noticeably sharper, though, thanks in part to the platforms. Arkham Knight is the first game being developed for PS4 and Xbox One rather than PS3 and Xbox 360.
"We're excited to be developing the game for next gen platforms, which has allowed us to bring to life the design elements that we envisioned from the beginning such as the Batmobile and how it augments Batman's abilities, to the fully detailed and realized Gotham City," said director Sefton Hill.
The studio explained several tech improvements in the initial Game Informer preview. One character from Arkham Knight is said to have as many polygons as an entire environment from Arkham Asylum. Batman's cape and Gordon's trenchcoat will both sway from wind and movement. Gordon's face is visibly aged and will wrinkle as he talks.
Multiplayer
Batman: Arkham Knight won't be bringing back this multiplayer mode. In fact, it won't have any sort of online play.
"We want to focus on making the best single-player experience we can," Hill told Game Informer. "We don't feel that it needs a multiplayer element."
Batman
Batman still has many of the gadgets he used in Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, including his batarangs, grapnel gun and line launcher. He's developed some new toys since the last game, though. A new batarang sensor lets him gather important intel on the surrounding area. His cape's gliding abilities have been enhanced so he can fly for much greater distances. Then there's the batmobile, which I'll explain in a bit.
Although he's outnumbered by his enemies, Batman has allies as well. Barbara Gordon, a.k.a. Oracle, will provide tech support to him throughout the game. Her father, police commissioner James Gordon, leads the remnants of the GCPD throughout the city. He and Batman have gained each other's trust over the Arkham series and will work together in retaking Gotham.
Arkham Knight will explore Batman's relationship with these allies. They may suffer because of their ties to the Dark Knight.
"Those characters have been part of the Batman Universe for so long, but we, in the telling of this part of the story, wanted to ask ourselves: what happens when Batman goes to war?" said producer Dax Ginn. "What happens when the people that he loves start to pay the price for the decisions that he makes about his war on crime?"
Superman
There have been some crazy rumors about Arkham Knight's cast. Everyone from Robin to Damian Wayne to Superman himself has been rumored to be in the game.
These reports are mostly bogus, though. They're based on cast listings from IMDB, a site where anyone can add or change information. The fact that many of these supposed cast listings vanish soon after being published just further highlights how unreliable that resource is. Gaming sites should really stop treating that cast information as gospel.
If a character rumor sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Wait until you see a character in a trailer or screenshot before you get excited.
Batmobile
Batman: Arkham Knight is the first game in the series to let players drive the Batmobile. They can summon the Batmobile with a push of a button and use it to quickly traverse Gotham City. Another press of a button will catapult them out of the cockpit. They can land on the street below or glide through the air with Batman's cape.
The Batmobile isn't just for transportation, though. It's a heavily-armored war machine with several weapons. Its armaments include a missile launcher, 60mm cannon and vulcan gun. Batman will have to use all of them to take down hostile drones throughout Gotham.
Batman can use his batmobile to take down gang members, too. He's loaded the vehicle with non-lethal weapons like a riot suppressor so he won't have violate his personal rule against killing. He can't even run over enemies; tasers lining the vehicle will deliver a powerful electric current that flings enemies out of the way.
Gotham City
Batman: Arkham Asylum and Arkham City limited players to small parts of Gotham. However, Arkham Knight lets them explore the bulk of the city. The game world's said to be five times the size of Arkham City's.
While trying to restore order to the city, Batman won't make trips back to Wayne Manor. Instead, he can head to the Gotham Clock Tower and access a mini-Batcave. This tower is also the base of operations for Oracle.
Batman can also visit his swank penthouse apartment.
"We put a massive bar in there, because he's always entertaining," said Ginn. "So little things like that, that fit the way that we've interpreted Bruce Wayne. It's awesome for us to just let loose and really come up with a creative space that we feel is true to the Arkham experience, but also true to Batman."
Release Date
Batman: Arkham Knight was originally scheduled for a fall 2014 release. However, Rocksteady announced in early June that they were pushing the game to early 2015.
"The very simple reason for doing this is to ensure we are delivering the awesome level of quality that Batman fans and gamers expect from this, the final episode and the epic conclusion to the Rocksteady Arkham trilogy," Ginn told Kotaku.
The Microsoft Store listed the game's release date as February 24th. However, they removed that date soon afterward so it might not be accurate.

Awesome!!!! They said that Red Hood is the Arkham Knight that looks similar to Batman. I'm definitely pre ordering Batman Arkham Knight for my PC since i don't have the Xbox One. :storm:
Awesome! Red hood, Harley, this game is gonna rock!
RED HOOOOOD! Gonna preorder for sure now.

Batman: Arkham Knight' DLC: Red Hood and Harley Quinn as playable characters in new update!
"Batman: Arkham Knight" DLC is going to be an exciting and quite an unexpected adventure for fans of the game. In an unanticipated twist, three characters with conflicting background stories have been included to boost the exhilaration offered by the updated version.
In a surprising move, makers of the "Batman: Arkham Knight" decided to put together Red Hood, Harley Quinn, and Batman as characters for the game.
The upcoming DLC is rumored to include a story missions involving the much loved Red Hood character. In addition, the game is speculated to provide players with the option to play as Jason Todd.
According to the Batman legend, Todd is the former Robin and regarded as the resurrected Red Hood. According to its manufacturers, the Red Hood DLC update will be included with the "Batman: Arkham Knight" pre-orders from the Rocksteady store. In this case, the Red Hood upgrade will be offered for free.
On the other hand, players who prefer to take the role of the villain known to have a crazy past would be given the opportunity to fulfill their inclination. A Harley Quinn DLC update is also purportedly going to be available. In this upgrade, the well known sidekick of the infamous villain Joker may be played as Gotham's new, albeit bewildering, trusted hero.
Unlike the Red Hood update, which is available upon pre-order of the "Batman: Arkham Knight" from Rocksteady, the Harley Quinn DLC upgrade will be sold in Amazon.
This arrangement is further confirmed by a promo image publicly released by Amazon, which supposedly informs its buyers that the Harley Quinn DLC update would be added to the "Batman: Arkham Knight" DLC as a playable character as opposed to merely playing the villain in the adventures.
Apart from these three additional playable characters, the "Batman: Arkham Knight" DLC will also feature antagonists such as Scarecrow, Penguin, Harley Quinn, and Two-Face.

New theories about the Arkham Knight to me I believe it is Jason Todd.

Take a look at the new Arkham Knight Trailer!! Poison Ivy is in there:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpXUIh7rlWI
I was so happy when I saw this this morning. I am excited to see Ivy returning.
Wow this game is going to be amazing especially if its rated M. I like how they change the characters looks by changing them up instead of re-using their old looks. And I knew they were going to put Firefly back in the game. I really hope Catwoman is in the game. :storm:
I hope we get to learn more about Hush or even Azrael in this one! Was very interested to see how their story would play out.
I second that, Hush, Azrael, and Red hood are what I'm hoping have some screen time in the game.
I wish they could have Oracle become Batgirl and assist Batman physically. I want Night wing and Robin to have more screen time as well. :storm:
Well Barbara can't just dawn her suit again just like that, because well, she's paralyzed and it would take some time to recover (if we're talking new 52 Barbara haha) or have her use some robotic legs but I doubt it. Having her for challenge maps would be cool though c:
But maybe the Huntress? She was teased by Vicki Vale in Arkham City. Or even Cassandra Cain would be pretty badass.

Yeah I was thinking about Huntress as well when Vicki Vale said that she is another vigilante. But do you think Superman will get involved or not. :storm:
This isn't really a superman styled game, so I don't think so
Ivy and Firefly look amazing, so glad to see these two returning. Why isn't it june yet :(

I already knew Firefly was going to return since he appeared in Origins it wouldn't make sense for him not to include him in the final Arkham game. Also what about the Rat Catcher. The Rat Catcher mask and gloves are seen in Arkham Origins, Arkham Asulym, and his poster appears in Arkham City. In addition in Arkham City Penguins thugs been talking about Penguin taking The Rat Catcher. So I would love to see a side mission for him in Arkham Knight since he have been mentioned as an easter egg in the Arkham series. I want to see him physically in the actual game.

Rat catcher has been confirmed death in the arkham comics. So I don't think its likely :P

I read that he might still be alive because some of the thugs mentioned him still being alive.
Arkham City Incident
The Ratcatcher does not appear in-game, although he has been mentioned as being locked up in Arkham City and hiding, in fear for his life. He figured that he could sell items that his rats found in the sewers of Gotham City, creating a small market. This attracted the Penguin's attention, and some time later, Otis Flannegan was dragged into the museum, screaming for his life, never to be seen again. Penguin's Gang mentioned that he was supposed to have ironically been eaten by his rats, but after they ignored him for several days, Penguin tossed Ratcatcher to his shark Tiny, who presumably ate him. While it is believed he is dead, a conversation in the game can be heard between two thugs discussing another thug being eaten alive by rats, alluding to the possibility that Otis was still alive. He was also mentioned in a riddle that can be found in the Industrial District.
:storm:
Oowh didn't know that.
Kinda interessting to see how he would look considering Scarecrow already seems badly damaged by Croc
The OFFICIAL TRAILER is so GOOOOODDDDD!!!!!

Really excited for this! Being able to switch characters mid-gameplay should pretty fun. Too bad you can't play multiplayer. I would love to play with my friend on the story. Also I hope there's more characters than just those 4, maybe Red Hood could join in. He would be pretty interesting considering his arsenal of weapons. :p

Its almost like playing MUA or X-men Legends, but I love the new look for Robin, Catwoman, and Nightwing. I wish Bat Girl can join.

Yes finally we get to play as Batgirl!!! :storm:
I'll just wait for the dlc and see what's worth it and what isn't. Season pass is waaaay to pricey

I agree.
And not to mention with all the DLC they have planned already, we can most likely expect either a game of the year edition like the first two games, or some kind of compilation.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=40&v=vUB7ITK_dJY
Yaaasss my queen, slay them all :D
Oh god, just three weeks and we'll get to play this masterpiece. I have to admit, with all the info they're putting out rn I'm so excited for this game. In case you missed some stuff
-No loadscreens at all. You can play the game from beginning to end without one single load screen (although I presume this comes with a huge install time first time you play, but I can honestly live with that)
-In game skins will carry over to cutscenes, they're rendered in real time right now so no more default batman skins.
Harley DLC looks sooooooooo good. And that was defintely Nightwing she was facing off against. Awesome :D
There's also a new trailer out which shows the Ivy rescue scene we saw in the trailer. (trailerception :P) It does look like she's only gonna play a small role in the game though.
All these things, and that damn attractive season pass. (although still way to pricey, but fair is fair, they're giving out a lot of content)
I pre ordered my game two days ago, so I'm defintely gettting to play as Harley :D
I am so stocked for this game.
Harley looks amazing and was kicking some serious butt!
I am excited to hear about the skins working in the cutscenes, that will be awesome!
I saw the video showing off Ivy. I am beyond excited she is in the game, I just hope she plays a some what larger role. Or at least one fight sequence.
Yeah, it's kinda funny since I was also looking forward to the new Star Wars Battlefront, but it seems like every thing I hear about that game is a negative point (no singleplayer, no space battles etc.) Everything I hear about Arkham Knight is mostly a good point (aside from *sigh* the season pass *sigh* 'whichi'llprobablystillbuycausedamneverythingjustlookssogood')
I really want to get the season pass too, I'm still debating on whether or not I want to drop 40 bucks for it tho.
The Arkham games typically get game of the year editions, and if not I assume it will get some kind of compilation release. I just don't know if I want to wait that long.

Yeah I hear you. With a game like this it's guarenteed there will be a GOTY edition, but then again the Arkham franchise played a huge part with me being interessted in dc/batman and just comics in general. I can't wait that long anymore xd
I know how you feel. They didn't get me into comics, but they did get me more into Batman. And especially with Batgirl being a favorite of mine I would really love to play as her right off the bat.
Red hood DLC Trailer:

:storm:
Just two days away from playing this work of art :). Some people got the game early (street date I guess) so spoilers are all over. I tried to be strong but ended up spoiling a lot for myself anyways, what I've seen seems/looks really promising anyway so yeeh I guess :D
Yeah trying not to read reviews. Can't wait for this beast. Finally Red Hood playable and the Batmobile this game will be remembered for a very long time like the original two games. It will stand next to Nolans movies as must haves for Batman/DC fans
So I just finished it but for those who played the Red Hood Storyline, it takes place after the events of Arkham Knight right? Or before?
I believe after, since the character that dies in that mission isnt mentioned in the main story.
Love the game btw, easily the best arkham so far
