Rocksteady Studios is going for a full-court press in promoting their newest title, "Batman: Arkham Knight," releasing a new trailer featuring all the villains in the game with The Scarecrow as their leader. The latest trailer also has a segment showing new content for pre-orders of the game. The content, called "Scarecrow Pack," contains new night missions and custom skins. Rocksteady Studios also revealed the minimum specs for the soon-to-be-released "Batman" title.
Independent of the official announcements, a 4chan post is making its rounds in the gaming community. According to the post, The Suicide Squad and Amanda Waller will try to evict Batman by controlling the Arkham Knight and Scarecrow, as they believe Gotham is becoming a national security threat. The Suicide Squad, with a maskless Deathstroke, Deadshot, Bane, and Lynx, has an agenda of its own and plans to backstab both the Arkham Knight and Waller. The developing storyline is a catch-22, since Waller had the members of the group installed with bombs which can eliminate them, if she so chooses. Batman must find a way to fight the Squad without killing them, and save them from other villains such as Two Face and Penguin.
Hush will also make an appearance in a side story, impersonating Bruce Wayne and going head to head with Batman during a party. This will result to a chase and hostage taking, ultimately leading to Hush falling off the balcony. Moviepilot also made a prediction that Hush is the real mastermind behind Scarecrow.
The post also mentions other characters such as The Riddler, Two Face, Dr. Kirk Langstrom, and playable characters Robin, Nightwing, and Catwoman.
No "Batman" game is complete without the gadgets and the Batmobile, which will have great exposure in the game. There will also be an abundance of Batarangs, sequencers, and the Dark Knight's own take on Fear gas.
"Batman: Arkham Knight" will be made available for PC, PS4, and Xbox One on June 2.
