Batman Arkham Asylum (a game I love like my own child) will be developing a sequel which was announced directly from Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment. Here is what Martin Tremblay, president of Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment, officially announced:
"We are thrilled to build a global game franchise from 'Batman: Arkham Asylum,' which is receiving an incredible response from gamers and Batman fans around the world... Rocksteady has taken Batman to a new level in the video game space and we are committed to delivering a sequel the fans will love."
Sefton Hill, game director of Rocksteady Studios:
"Getting the opportunity to create 'Batman: Arkham Asylum' and seeing its success has been a dream come true for the team... We are honored to create the next chapter in this compelling story and promise to deliver another game worthy of the Dark Knight."
This is the first game I picked-up during a midnight release, and was well worth it! It's no surprise B:AA is getting a sequel... it would be dumb of them not to develop one because of its success. This is also the first game I've seen purchased not just by die-hard Batman fans, but die-hard gamers, giving the game it's highest level of valid praise. The bar was set very high for this game, I can guarantee expectations for the sequel will match. What really captured my love for this game was the level of detail, even at its tiniest, that were placed in the world of Arkham Asylum. For example: Calendar Man's cell, Penguin's umbrella's, even the subtle musical tones paying homage to Christopher Nolan's Batman!
In the meantime, can we get more DLC for Batman Arkham Asylum? You can join B:AA's mailing list for updates here.
