Here are the details and a few screenshots from the game.

  • Warner Bros. wanted to have a 2.5D-style Arkham game in the style of Metroidvania
  • The company chose Armature because the studio was familiar with that style of game
  • Takes place after the end of Origins

  • All of Batman’s improvements came through gear pick-ups and upgrades
  • Team wanted to give players more of a sense of collection
  • Mostly set along a 2D plane
  • Takes full advantage of the visual three-dimensionality of the environments
  • Explore, fight, and interact with the foreground abnd background
  • Can grapple up to gargoyles on a background balcony while a crowd of armed inmates pass by

  • No save rooms
  • Modern checkpoint system
  • Can manually save whenever you desire
  • Can defeat the bosses in any ordder if you find out where you want to go
  • “We don’t want you to break the game, but if you can exploit it in a certain way that we haven’t thought of, that’s awesome. So it’s conceivable the players will have abilities that don’t necessarily jibe that great with the boss. We’ve taken some cues from other games where if you have a particular item against a boss, you’ll just rip them a new one, but we don’t tell you what that item is”
  • Will have detective mode
  • Tap a button and the screen fades into a digitized overlay with detailed info
  • Green enemies: enemies haven’t seen you
  • Red enemies: enemies are onto your location
