Think one game that has done a superhero well in a videogame, and Batman would be if not top near the top of that list. It's no surprise then that Warner Bros have just announced that Return To Arkham, a remaster of two much loved Batman Games, are coming to both the PS4 and Xbox One on July 29th, with a suggested retail price of £39.99.
This remaster will offer fans a chance to play both Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City, with this version also including all Game of the Year bonuses and downloadable content from both games. The games will also see improved graphics as well as upgraded models, environments, lighting, effects and shaders.
Batman: Arkham Asylum is where it all began. Originally developed by Rocksteady Studios and released in 2009, the game pushed the envelope for action, adventure and super hero games and exposed players to a unique, dark and atmospheric adventure taking them to the depths of Arkham Asylum. Featuring an original story, gamers can move in the shadows, instill fear amongst their enemies and confront The Joker and Gotham City's most notorious villains, including Harley Quinn, Bane, Killer Croc, Poison Ivy and Scarecrow, who have taken over the asylum.
Batman: Arkham City is Rocksteady Studios’ 2011 follow-up to Batman: Arkham Asylum. The game builds upon the intense, atmospheric foundation of Batman: Arkham Asylum, sending players soaring through the expansive Arkham City – the maximum security “home” for all of Gotham City’s thugs, gangsters and insane criminal masterminds. Featuring an incredible Rogues Gallery of Gotham City’s most dangerous criminals including Catwoman, The Joker, The Riddler, Two-Face, Harley Quinn, The Penguin, Mr. Freeze and many others, the game allows players to experience what it feels like to be The Dark Knight and deliver justice to those confined within Arkham City.
