    I think for it to be Damien they'd have to give a whole lot of back story that'd really take away from the pace of a game set over one night. Hopefully, anyway. He's such a crap character.

    I liked him at the end, which overall was probably the point.

    Anything been said about a collectors edition for this? I know I'll get it, it's inevitable.

    Damnit, now I'm picturing a collectors edition with a model of the batmobile... with a little switch to turn on the LEDs for the lights...

    I still think it's going to be Hush, to continue that thread from Arkham City. It'd make sense, he's copied Batman's face, now he's gotten himself a similar suit...

    Good idea.
    I definitely think that while the AK character is new, I do believe the man behind the mask will be someone we know.

    I just got a feeling that it'll have something to do with the Joker. Hope i'm wrong tbh.

    Pre-order showed up from Best buy with the following tweet.
    Masked as Bruce Wayne's son, drive the Batmobile & defend the city from notorious villains.

    Any chance that a collectors edition would have a Batman figure? I never get collector editions but that would convince me to get the Arkham Knight one straight away.

    I'd say there's a good chance. I've the collectors edition of both City and Origins. City came with a regular sized Batman statue, while Origins came in a massive box with a big statue of Batman holding Joker off the ground.

    It's either Hush or Jason Todd, but most likely Todd, as we've all been saying for ages, wouldn't it be a huge disappointment if it was Damian or some random new character.

    Thought I'd posted this before, but must have forgotten to click the post button, anyway...

    I'd say it'll be a two pronged attack on Batman. The Arkham Night is out to get Batman, while another villain will be out to take down Bruce Wayne. Hush would fit in nicely with the latter.

    Was just listening to the Wondercon 75th anniversary panel, Conroy talks briefly about Arkham Knight during the Q&As, and how much it's going to blow our minds. Said he already got in trouble for talking to people about the story though so doesn't give anything anyway :pac:

    I can't frickin wait for this game.

    Someone on /v/ claims to know the plot, and posts about it in great detail. Here's an imgur link to it, click at your own risk!

    That looks like its definitely worth getting a ONE or PS4 to play.

    Looks incredible, can't wait!

    Voice actor for Arkham Knight sounds kind of familiar, who is it?

    Hmm, there's still a lot of CGI in that trailer. Hopefully it'll be on the show floor at E3 so we can see how the whole thing looks and comes together with the inclusion of the Batmobile.

    That was Scarecrow talking throughout I think. I got a bit of a John Noble vibe from him but as far as I'm aware, the voice actor for the character hasn't been announced yet.

    I love the mechanical batsuit animations.

    Also, the Arkham Knight is Hispanic?

    Conroy can say anything as Batman and it sounds class. He really is the definite Batman (to me anyways).

    Delighted that he is back for this game. I didn't like Batman's voice in Origins.

    I don't give a toss about the other voice actors as long as Conroy is Batman, but the more voice actors they carry over from the animated series the better! I think he is the only one now.

    I was just looking at IMBD cast listing for the game, a few villains I didn't know were appearing in the game are listed. Pinch of salt?

    And David Mitchell doing henchmen voices?!
