Good news gaming fans as new update for Rocksteady Studios' "Batman: Arkham Knight's" Red Hood pack and a new game costume have been revealed.
According to Design&Trend, the plot details of the Red Hood DLC for "Batman: Arkham Knight" have been revealed due to the new ESRB rating that was given to the game.
"Batman: Arkham Knight" was categorized as rated M for Mature due to the scale of violence and several "rated R" details that children below should not know about. Design&Trend theorized that Red Hood's gameplay style is very different to that of Batman as the ESRB rating stated that "players can shoot unarmed characters and a hostage."
Everyone who has read the Batman comics knows that Batman does not use guns to stop criminals in Gotham City, so the only logical explanation for that description is Red Hood might be using guns in the game.
In the Batman mythos, Red Hood (real name Jason Todd) is the only member of the Bat family to ever use guns to stop criminals, and he does not hesitate to kill them off the streets. Design&Trend further implied that guns will figure into gameplay sequences beyond cutscenes.
It was previously claimed by Lazygamer.net that Jason Todd and Arkham Knight are the same person, due to the fact that both characters are using the same set of guns in the game, although, Rocksteady never made any statement regarding the claim.
Aside from the Red Hood gameplay, there is also a new costume for "The Dark Knight" in "Batman: Arkham Knight."
HardcoreGamer has reported that WB Games is promoting a special exclusive character skin for the game solely for members of the WBPlay service (similar to UPlay or EA Access).
The costume is dubbed "Anime Batman" and is based on the Gotham Knight anthology, which was animated in a style similar to Japanese anime.
"Batman: Arkham Knight" will launch on June 2 for the PS4, Xbox One and for the PC as Gamers can also pre-order The Batmobile Edition, which is worth $199.99, or the Limited Edition at $99.99.
