I was excited for the sequel to Batman: Arkham Asylum even before it was officially announced. And after seeing these new pre-order skins for Batman: Arkham City, I am grinning like The Joker himself!
From left to right: Batman Beyond, The Dark Knight Returns, Earth One Batman, 1970’s Batman, Batman: The Animated Series and the default. Not really a new skin but I guess they threw it in there so it’s easier to compare. Unfortunately, as of now the only one slated for release in the U.S. is the 70’s style, and that’s only if pre-ordered from Toys-R-Us. Others are slated for the UK and New Zealand and not all six will be available to any one region or retailer…at first. I’m sure down the road you can shell out hard earned cash to pick them up as DLC.
Personally, I think the Batman: The Animated Series version was a great idea on paper but a bit too cartoony for me, especially with the dark and gritty feel the developers went for in the first installment. Let us know which version you like or would like to see! Hey Rocksteady Studios…is it too late to ask for Batman from Superman: Red Son?
