Batman: Arkham Asylum announced

360 News | The Dark Knight returns.
Eidos Interactive and Warner Bros. Interactive have announced today that they will be co-publishing Batman: Arkham Asylum on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC in 2009.

The game will revolve around Batman taking The Joker to Arkham Asylum. Waiting for Batman at Arkham however is a sinister trap, devised by the villains who have been imprisoned there. Unfortunately, at this stage not much else has been revealed, though the script has been penned by famed Batman writer Paul Dini.

“In Batman: Arkham Asylum Eidos and Warner Bros. are building a true action adventure game experience worthy of gamers and fans,” said Phil Rogers, CEO of Eidos Interactive. “Players become Batman, like he has never been seen before in a video game, as he fights through intense circumstances in Arkham Asylum utilizing his intuitive detective skills and aggressive melee attacks.”

So it's just Arkham Asylum? What's a Batman game without Gotham City? Arkham's a tiny place.

Still, Paul Dini is one of my many messiahs, so I'll be buying this regardless.

I'm pretty sure I heard the game is ALL of gotham but has a focus on arkham too, but if this ends up as good as Hulk Ultimate and Spider-man 2 or even better than this will be awesome and I will have no choice but to buy it. (Not that thats a bad thing) icon_smile.gif
