I have heard that it may be released at the end of this summer but thats just gossip form my local games retailer.
Getting excited already though as it seems to be set in Gotham, would be cool if there were a few side misssions and and a few more of the "major" villains like the penguin, two-face and catwoman.

I'm kinda hoping for some like the no mans land storyline, where each villain holds control over a part of the city, but that would be a massive game and probably wouldn't work.

true, u got a point.they could have it like the spider man sandboxes where u cant really attack innocents but that would take away from the game having batman swinging and people r just making comments like nothings happening.

At his C2E2 panel, Kevin Conroy confirmed Two-Face would be in the game, along with Mr. Freeze who will be voiced by Maurice LaMarche, who also confirmed in a seperate interview. And on her Twitter account, Stana Katic said she would be voicing Talia for the game.

www.gamingtarget.com/article.php?artid=11679The world's greatest web sleuth, Superannuation, is at it again. This time, he's discovered eight possible titles for Batman: Arkham Asylum 2 along with seven related domains that may reveal a few plot points in the upcoming sequel.
While its possible that none of these titles will be the final name of the game, WB Games has registered URLs for the following titles:
Batman: Arkham City
Batman: Ashes of Gotham
Batman: Broken Ground
Batman: Grand Delusion
Batman: New Arkham
Batman: Rise of Arkham
Batman: Siege of Gotham
Batman: State of Villainy
These related URLs were also discovered, which hint at Bruce Wayne going MIA, Warden Sharp getting a promotion and an all out war in Gotham:
ArkhamCity.com
CityOfArkham.com
CloseArkhamCity.com
PeopleForGotham.com
StopMayorSharp.com
WarInGothamCity.com
WheresBruceWayne.comI would've gone with Streets of Gotham, but out of these, I'd pick Siege of Gotham.

the official title for the game has been announced as Batman: Arkham City. not the best or most creative title, but it'll have to do.

some new info on the game has been revealed. you'll start the game with all equipment that you ended the previous game with plus smoke bombs. there are now side missions. Hugo Strange is in the game. Arkham City is a small area of "slums" that was purchased by Quincey Sharp named Arkham City. the plot revolves around Two-Face attempting to kill Catwoman. Riddler Challenges are returning. various gangs inhabit Arkham City. and you can counter two attackers at the same time.

I love that we get smoke bombs this time; I liked using those in Batman Begins. I wonder if we'll get to see Riddler this time.

We have a few more details: www.nowgamer.com/news/3912/batman-arkham-city-details-leaked4. Zsasz Returns Psycopathic murderer Zsasz will return, this time contacting Batman periodically from pay phones with side-quests and brutal interrogations that fill in for The Riddler's puzzles. Achievements and trophies will undoubtedly be attached to these tasks. Does this mean the Riddler will be a full villain rather than a puzzle device? 8. Alfred Gets Recognition Batman receives backup from Alfred this time round rather than Oracle. Bruce Wayne's loyal aide can help him jack into police radio frequencies using his new broadcast analyser. Can we assume Oracle has been kidnapped? 9. The Boy Wonder Robin could be in it. Yeah we know, that doesn't sound so good, but it has been revealed that a 'Flying Graysons' poster, the family trapeze group Batman's young ward once belonged to, has been spotted in Arkham City. 10. Co-op? We've already mentioned that Two-Face is trying to kill Catwoman to gain respect within the criminal underworld, which makes her an enemy of Batman's enemies. There has been no talk of co-op so far, but the premise is well and truly there.

Can't wait for this. Took the plunge on PS3 specifically for the first game and loved it.
And hey, what's wrong with Robin! Don't be haters! ;-P

hey, welcome back all-star.
supposedly Calendar Man can be seen in the VGA trailer. i didnt see him, but people have apparently spotted him and blown up pics have surfaced. i like the design alot. hopefully we get a fig of him based on that design. i dont want to jump to conclusions based on what Strange was doing, but based on his clothes and what it looked like they've decided to make him more mad scientist than psychiatrist. i'll wait for game details to come out, but hopefully i'm wrong and he was just interrogating the guy and not experimenting.

Thanks. At the VGA's there were life size models of characters on stage also including Joker, Harley, Two-Face, Zsasz, etc. while Hugo Strange was announcing over a PA that no one will escape Arkham City. Calendar Man was one of them. If you look closely, there are marks along his head. Possibly based on his appearance from Dark Victory: He put on some weight though. Doesn't Strange usually wear a lab coat? I remember he did when we was on TAS. Probably just giving to him again for the game, and yeah he was just interrogating him, using what was probably a truth serum. Let's remember though that Strange is a scientist as well; remember Batman and the Monster Men?
