Rocksteady Studios and Eidos have teamed up to bring us Batman: Arkham Asylum. While the game has received a lot of attention thus far due to it being coined “Bat Theft Auto”, writter Paul Dini of Justice League and Batman Beyond has created a unique story just for this game that will keep naysayers at bay. Hopefully.

The game won’t be coming to your favorite video game system for quite some time, but there has been some information revealed thus far. The main villian in the game will be none other than the Joker himself, with appearances by Harley Quinn, Killer Croc, Penguin, Riddler, Scarecrow, and even a few more. The game is aiming for a gritty and dark styling so developers have chosen to use the Unreal Engine 3 to release this game exactly how they have pictured on the Xbox 360, Playstation 3, and PC.

As the game isn’t tied in to any movie or comic line directly, there’s no rush on getting it out by a certain date. cycles.
