New villains are going to join the new Batman Arkham game, Batman Arkham Knight and the new trailer shows Gotham in peril at the hands of Scarecrow, some slick Batmobile gameplay, and the debut of the mysterious new character, The Arkham Knight. Has the Dark Knight finally met his match?
Gameranx has reported that four new villains are added in Batman Arkham Knight, although only one character is new to the game while the rest had multiple appearances in the past Arkham titles. The villains are Killer Moth, Bane, Victor Zsasz, and Deadshot and Gameranx also posted a photo of the voice-actors of each character.
Killer Moth is the only new character among the four who will make his first appearance in Batman Arkham Knight. Bane has already been in three Arkham games while Zsasz, and Deadshot each appeared twice. It is unknown as of yet which incarnation of Killer Moth will appear in game as the comics had three people who took the Killer Moth mantle; Cameron Van Cleer, Drury Walker, and an unknown person.
Meanwhile, the new trailer for Batman Arkham Knight has been released yesterday and the video shows Scarecrow ruling Gotham out of fear and the whole city went straight to hell courtesy of Two-Face, Penguin, and Harley Quinn. The trailer also shows a glimpse of the new Batmobile gameplay, as Batman drives around stopping bad guys with a whole new set of wheels. Finally the trailer ends with Batman facing off a new opponent; The Arkham Knight as he pins down the Dark Knight on the ground at gun point uttering the words "No more hope. No more Batman...." As he fires the gun and the screen went black.
Will we see the end of the Dark Knight in the last Arkham game and who is the Arkham Knight? We'll find out more soon when the game is released this year.
