The first gameplay trailer for Rocksteady's return to Gotham is here, providing a peek at the setting, the villains, and the action that awaits the Dark Knight in Batman: Arkham City.

As the trailer's soundtrack suggests, Arkham City ain't no place for a hero. That's why Batman fits in so well. See for yourself:



Batman: Arkham City is being developed for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows PCs. The game is set to ship on October 18.


Sharkey says: Fantastic. It looks like Rocksteady hasn't lost its touch in perfectly translating to video games how Batman moves and fights in comics. And make sure you let the trailer run to the very end, there is a quick cameo from a familiar, smiling face.
