Games Montreal pulled the curtain away from their mysterious new DC game - and it is indeed a new Batman related game... One that does not put players in control of The Dark Knight, but his extended Bat-Family instead in Nightwing, Red Hood, Batgirl, and Robin... The Gotham Knights.

Batman: Arkham Origins: "Initiation" DLC teased at DC All Access



Over a month since its release in video game consoles and platforms, WB Games epic looking prequel entry to the Batman Arkham franchise, Batman: Arkham Origins, has served up an interesting look at what transpired in a younger Dark Knight's career prior to the events of the two classic Rocksteady Stuidos games, Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City. Developed by WB Games Montreal, Origins looks at the more inexperienced Batman facing overwhelming numbers of criminals and assassins on Christmas Eve, with the villain Black Mask putting a hefty bounty on the Caped Crusader's head for good measure.


Now that the game is out, people are looking towards what's to come next, and sure enough, and whole slew of DLC is coming to add some extra content and depth. While many out right now are additional challenge maps, costumes, and items (not to mention the Deathstroke pack), a new DLC exclusive sub-adventure was promised some time ago, and now is being teased at this week's DLC All Access. Entitled "Initiation", "the prequel to the prequel" story sees Bruce Wayne who has yet to don the Cape and Cowl, and is undergoing training in a monastery deep within the Himalayas, fighting ninjas and learning vital tricks that'll be important to his mission... which is a nod to the comics itself and the first film of The Dark Knight Trilogy, Batman Begins.

Batman: Arkham Origins: The Batcave revealed to be in the game


Looks like a familiar location in the Batman mythos will FINALLY be seen in the Batman Arkham games.

As people brace themselves for a new villain reveal and the inevitable release of the prequel Batman video game that is "Batman: Arkham Origins", Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, DC Entertainment, and WB Games Montreal have released a couple of new screenshots for the game that reveal one major location that is home to Batman - The Batcave! Unlike the satellite Batcaves that appeared in the 2009 video game hit Batman: Arkham Asylum, this Batcave appears to be the real deal and the one and only located under stately Wayne Manor!


Also, the way it's shown above takes a cue and echoes a scene directly out of the Christopher Nolan's final Batman film "The Dark Knight Rises", in which Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne suits up and returns to the world, donning his familiar Cape and Cowl after a gantry containing the armor elevates up from a secret floor compartment.

Both scenes match up, and butler Alfred watches closely in both versions as his master suits up. For more screenshots, visit the source post at Superherohype.

Batman: Arkham Origins hits the PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii U on October 25.

Kevin Conroy to appear in "New Arkham Game", not Batman: Arkham Origins

Looks like confusion came through earlier for the big news that was "Batman: Arkham Origins", and now we have confirmation from "The Voice of Batman" himself, Kevin Conroy, that puts matters to rest.


After it was announced that Roger Craig Smith and Troy Baker would be playing the roles of Batman and The Joker respectively in Arkham Origins, fans were wondering what role Conroy would be playing in the prequel. Turns out that he was referring to ANOTHER ARKHAM GAME during his presscon at this year's Dallas Comic Con, and it's something that hasn't been officially announced yet. He announced it in his official Twitter page, but that post has since been deleted.


For more insight on the matter, visit the source post at Batman-News. If you haven't seen the trailer or read the new details on Arkham Origins, click on the links to do so.

Batman: Arkham Origins will be released on October 25.

Batman: Arkham Origins: New screenshots, info, and The Joker returns (or appears for the first time)!


Following up on the impressive 5 minute long debut trailer, WB Games and WB Games Montreal have released a couple of new screenshots for their upcoming new prequel in the Batman Arkham video game series - Batman: Arkham Origins! Highlighting these of course is the very first look at The Joker, as he appears in the game!

Of course, the last time people saw The Clown Prince of Crime was at the 2011 video game smash hit Batman: Arkham City, where the character apparently met his demise after a final titanic battle with the Caped Crusader. His appearance in Arkham Origins isn't surprising given it's a prequel, but he'll be voiced by a different man - namely Troy Baker, since the "Voice of Joker" from Batman: The Animated Series and the previous two Arkham Games, legendary Star Wars actor Mark Hamill, has stated that he isn't returning for the role. It's also been confirmed that Kevin Conroy won't be voicing Batman... Rather it'll be Roger Craig Smith of Sonic The Hedgehog and Assassin's Creed Ezio Auditore fame. Instead, Conroy will be back for a mysterious role... Which we'll find out sooner what it is or later.



In the meantime, check out more worth screenshots via Batman-News, and that AWESOME trailer if you haven't yet!

Batman: Arkham Origins is slated for release in the PS3, Xbox 360, PC, and Wii U on October 25th!

Batman: Arkham Origins: Kevin Conroy will return as Batman in Next Arkham Game!


Watch out, Batfans! Looks like a familiar voice and presence is going to be in the next Arkham game after all!


In a report by Batman fansite Arkhamverse and contradicting an earlier report by NAG Magazine, legendary Batman: The Animated Series voice actor Kevin Conroy has confirmed during his appearance in this year's Dallas Comic Con that he'll be returning to voice Batman in the "Next Arkham Game"! The actor has also stated during his Q&A Panel Discussion that he has been working on the new game for the past "nine to ten months", signing a non-disclosure agreement and not specifically saying what his new project it. Of course, many are already assuming it's "Batman: Arkham Origins" and/ or its handheld spin-off game Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate, and that's a good thing if it is that. Otherwise, will it be another Batman game? Either way, it's all good as long as Kevin Conroy voices The Bat!
