Molly Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Couldn't be more excited to see a proper sequel from Rocksteady, starring Scarecrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stavros Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Every one is the series finale until the sales figures come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightAngle04 Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Why is this the finale? Can't you tell Batman stories until the end of time if you wanted to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc20willsave Posted March 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 You can but I think the studio might just want to wrap up the current series and reboot it. The thing is, narratively, there's only so much farther they can go. You do too many sequels, you eventually hit the point of them becoming meaningless and, more importantly for the publisher, less cost effective.

Molly Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 They're pretty clearly telling a story here, too. The Joker is dead, they hinted at what Scarecrow was planning in Arkham City. Azrael said that Batman's greatest test was coming. From a narrative perspective, I think they're ready to end this series, which is wise, because as Arkham Origins showed; this series isn't bulletproof.

KnightWing Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 There are alternate skins for the batmobile apparently planned. If I can play as BTAS Batman driving the BTAS batmobile, I will have finally achieved eight-year-old Aaron's life goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Watch Scarecrow rip his mask off at the end and be the Joker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molly Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 I hope not, this is the one medium with the balls to actually kill the Joker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnightWing Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Rocksteady has said before that they plan to honor Joker's death in City; I don't anticipate them bringing him back, at least not fully. They've also said that this game is going to have an "end" of sorts, and that it's the reason they felt the need to keep the M rating they were given. I'm guessing more characters will die.

Pan-dub Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 At the very least Joker should crop up in a Scarecrow inspired hallucination. Whatever happens this game is the deadline for me upgrading my computer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KnightWing Posted April 28, 2015 Report Share Posted April 28, 2015 IGN is saying that this is a mode where you can switch between Batman and the sidekicks in a tag team manner. I kinda hope that at some point we get some multiplayer co-op brawl mode. Also: Nightwing looks rad, Robin looks even more like a tool than last time.
