Batman: Arkham City

    Product Review

    Release Date: 21 October 2011

    Developed by Rocksteady Studios, Batman: Arkham City builds upon the intense, atmospheric foundation of Batman: Arkham Asylum, sending players soaring into Arkham City, the new maximum security "home" for all of Gotham City’s thugs, gangsters and insane criminal masterminds. Set inside the heavily fortified walls of a sprawling district in the heart of Gotham City, this highly anticipated sequel introduces a brand-new story that draws together a new all-star cast of classic characters and murderous villains from the Batman universe, as well as a vast range of new and enhanced gameplay features to deliver the ultimate experience as the Dark Knight.

    Batman: Arkham City is based on DC Comics’ core Batman license. For more information, visit www.batmanarkhamcity.com.

    Catwoman announced as playable character:

    As Catwoman, players will have a chance to indulge in their darker side and explore Arkham City as the infamous feline femme fatale. Complete with her own storyline in the main game, Catwoman’s adventure complements Batman’s central role and is seamlessly interwoven with his main story arc. She will also be playable in the challenge maps with her own unique combat moves, gadgetry and signature 'takedowns'.

    Features:

    • Become the Dark Knight – Batman: Arkham City delivers a genuinely authentic Batman experience with advanced, compelling gameplay on every level: high-impact street brawls, nail-biting stealth, multifaceted forensic investigation, epic super-villain encounters and unexpected glimpses into Batman’s tortured psychology.
    • Advanced FreeFlow Combat – Batman faces highly coordinated, simultaneous attacks from every direction as Arkham’s gangs bring heavy weapons and all-new AI to the fight, but Batman steps it up with twice the number of combat animations and double the range of attacks, counters and takedowns.
    • New Gadgets – Batman has access to new gadgets such as the Cryptographic Sequencer V2 and Smoke Pellets, as well as new functionality for existing gadgets that expand the range of Batman’s abilities without adding extra weight to his Utility Belt.
    • New Story – Five-time Emmy-Award-winner Paul Dini returns to pen a brand-new story for Batman: Arkham City, taking gamers deep inside the diseased heart of Gotham. 
    • Arkham Has Moved – Following the closure of Arkham Asylum and Blackgate prison, Gotham’s new mayor, Quincy Sharp ordered the relocation of all inmates to Arkham City - a sprawling new super-prison five times bigger than Arkham Island, enclosing a wide variety of industrial districts, iconic locations and Gotham landmarks.  
    • Huge Cast of Characters – Players encounter numerous characters from the Batman universe, including Catwoman, Two-Face, Harley Quinn, Hugo Strange, Victor Zsasz, Calendar Man, The Joker, The Riddler and other iconic characters yet to be revealed.
    • Featured VO Talent – Mark Hamill and Kevin Conroy reprise their roles as The Joker and Batman respectively.

    I'm Batman...

    This title is a must have. Great graphics and excellent gameplay at an excellent price. Lots of gadgets and playing as Catwoman is quite challenging. "Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?" No - But I mastered this game.

    Batman AA product review

    Dark Knight

    I loved Batman Arkham Asylum, had to complete everything on it and played it for many many hours. Arkham City is even better, and bigger.

    Batman: Arkham City is a great game even better than the first one. The story is catching and the atmosphere is unique. Good for a mature audience and very funny even in its multi player part.

    Amazing!

    This is best game of batman! Amazing! I realized Batman: Arkham City is a brilliant game. The voice acting, the challenges, the amazing opening, the unbelievable ending and the feeling of being the Dark Knight -- these are the things that standout looking back. I've beaten this thing twice and still want to call in sick and chase Riddler Trophies. Batman: Arkham City isn't just better than Batman: Arkham Asylum, it's better than most games on the market.

    Simply the best

    Batman Arkham City is the best game on Playstation 3. A great mix of stealth and combat which is a great balance and makes the game never get boring. Whether its the gripping story, stunning graphics or brilliant gameplay, Arkham City never fails to amaze. A brilliant experience and definetely a step up from Arkham Asylum. The game offers different difficulties meaning that if you have never played a combat game or if you are a master at them, it will offer you a brilliant gamiing experience. Buy this game !!
