Pick Your Poison: When The Knight Falls

by Antwan Thompson

Batman: Arkham Knight is an upcoming action-adventure video game developed by Rocksteady Studios and released by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One video game consoles and Microsoft Windows. It had been announced by Rocksteady Studios that the game, which follows the events that happened in 2011’s “Batman: Arkham City,” is set to come out in time for summer on June 2, 2015.

The game will allegedly feature the recovering period of Bruce Wayne/Batman after being injured in his battle with the Joker, who eventually died in “Arkham City.” He also continues to watch the lawless elements in Gotham City, which means that he will be facing more danger as new threats for the city’s peace and order continue to surface. Other speculations about the game mention that Gotham is cloaked in chaos, which mean that the Caped Crusader will have to combat more evil forces to restore the city’s safety. Batman, at the peak of his ability, as he confronts the Scarecrow, who has returned to Gotham City to unite Batman’s enemies including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn in a plot to finally kill the Dark Knight.
