Sneak Peek new screenshots from "Batman: Arkham City", the sequel to the 'stealth' video game "Batman: Arkham Asylum", based on DC Comics' 'Batman'. The new game, for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows is being developed by Rocksteady Studios, published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC Comics, for a 2011 release.
The story takes place one year after the events of "Arkham Asylum", with 'Quincy Sharp', former warden of the asylum, taking credit for stopping the 'Joker' and using that notoriety to become mayor of 'Gotham City'.
Because neither 'Arkham' or 'Blackgate Prison' are in any condition to hold inmates, Sharp buys out a large section of Gotham's slums and arms the perimeter with mercenaries from a group called 'Tyger'.
Prisoners are brought into Arkham City and given free rein, overseen by psychiatrist 'Hugo Strange'.
Events of the game are set in motion when 'Two-Face', seeking to gain status among the inmates, devises a plan to publicly execute 'Catwoman'. Batman decides to stop the execution of his former love by entering Arkham City himself.
Meanwhile a battered Joker, still recovering from his wounds in the first game, is nursed by 'Harley Quinn', while Gotham descends into chaos.
Voice actors confirmed include Kevin Conroy as Batman, Mark Hamill as the Joker, Wally Wingert as the 'Riddler', Maurice LaMarche as 'Mr. Freeze' and Stana Katic as 'Talia al Ghul'.Click the images to enlarge and Sneak Peek "Batman: Arkham City"...
