Batman Arkham City

Two more villains have been confirmed for Batman: Arkham Asylum 2. Voice actor Maurice LaMarche, will be providing the voice of Mr Freeze, alsp actor Stana Katic will be voicing Talia al Ghul, daughter of Ra's al Ghul. Over the weekend, Batman voice actor Kevin Conroy confirmed Two-Face would also be in the game. Conroy also said Arkham Asylum 2 will be "really, really dark." Really looking forward to this game the first one was pure class, can't wait for it.

Thanks for the news, first one was amazingly good.

Welcome mate, i loved the first game too. its supposed to be a later darker then the first one and i think you'll get to do battle on the streets of Gotham. I hoping that we get to use the bat mobile and bat wing this time around.

I always thought the first game was dark.

Anyway, will be interesting to see how the villians are, because Joker is the main badguy to Batman and it just seems like not having Joker in the game kind of takes away the appeal a little bit.

But I'll still probably end up buying it anway.

Here's a interview with Mark Hamill regarding Batman Arkham Asylum 2:

Some new screens shots from the game:

The game is gonna be 4 to 5 times bigger then the first one and Batman will have double the number of moves as his disposal this time.

it's actually going to be called Arkham City, Catwoman has a major role in it, two face is in it, it will have multiplayer, it has now been finished, so just waiting for release date, Rocksteady will be polishing it between now and its release next fall.

Arkham City is in fact an annexed section of the Gotham's slums, which has been walled in to contain all of the city's craziest and deranged criminals. Created by the newly-elected Mayor Sharp, the district is governed by security group Tyger. The only villain not resurfacing within this den of hostility is the Joker, who continues to hide after his Titan overdose. It's been revealed that he is very sick. Criminal gangs will play a part in the plot, with each group controlling certain districts of Arkham City. The Riddler's mob will be in there, depicted on Batman's detective vision in a green tinge, which seems to nod to some kind of faction element.

Psycopathic murderer Zsasz will return, this time contacting Batman periodically from pay phones with side-quests and brutal interrogations that fill in for The Riddler's puzzles. Achievements and trophies will undoubtedly be attached to these tasks. Does this mean the Riddler will be a full villain rather than a puzzle device?

Batman's combat receives an upgrade, allowing him to counter two moves at once, giving him an edge over new gun-wielding enemies. It's also a good thing Batman can now counter projectiles. Batman can even call upon gadgets mid-battle, letting him spray explosive gel on the backs of enemies to turn them into walking bombs. He also has a cape swipe that stuns enemies.

Batman: Arkham City will avoid the common pitfall of sequels and let you use all of the skills from Arkham Asylum at the start of the game. New confirmed gadgets include smoke bombs for stealthy escapes and blinding thugs.

There will be more puzzles and Batman's trademark forensic detective investigations. It has been revealed that Batman will be able to flex his sleuthing muscle like a CSI star, judging bullet trajectories and so on.

oh and all the abilities unlocked at the end of Arkham Asylum is available at the start of Arkham City

Here's the teaser trailer can't wait:

REALLY can't wait for this. Batman: Arkham Asylum was incredible, it's one of my favourite ever games. Pressure is on them now with everyone expecting the same quality if not more that was in Batman: Arkham Asylum.
