One high-powered costume won't be enough for the Caped Crusader in patrolling and keeping the dark and murky streets of Gotham City safe. That is why game company Rocksteady will make one more set of skins available for the hero in the upcoming action adventure video game "Batman Arkham Knight."
In the upcoming "Gotham's Future" DLC, players will get Batman's costume from two different futures. The first one is the skin the hero uses as seen on the "Dark Knight Returns" comic book, and the other one is straight from the popular "Batman Beyond" animated series.
For those who are not much into the bulky new look of the hero, they might be interested in having Batman put on these iconic gears. While it is true that previous "Batman: Arkham" games already had these skins, Rocksteady did drastic tweaking to make the costumes look cooler than they were.
Although the "Dark Knight Returns" skin looks a lot like the one the hero donned in "Batman: Arkham City," one will notice that the changes here are almost unnoticeable, such as the addition of the Bat-shoulder pads.
Interestingly, the "Batman Beyond" costume for "Batman: Arkham Knight" was completely reimagined and drastically redesigned. This one looks like an awesome upgrade from the menacing Arkham Knight costume.
In order to snag these skins, gamers simply need to pre-order the game. Those who want to go big and purchase the literally massive "Batman: Arkham Knight Serious Edition" will also score precious goodies on top of another costume inspired by the Dark Knight's first appearance back in 1939.
"Batman: Arkham Knight" is set to conclude its stellar video game trilogy. Just recently, a "Be the Batman" trailer fleshed out the game's villains and treated fans with some exciting nuggets about the Arkham universe. The game is said to be one of the biggest titles this year and it is scheduled to be released for the Xbox One, PS4 and PC on June 23.
