So... Not by the original developers, and not continuing the story? Wonderful.

I'm skeptical over the idea of a new developer. Hopefully it matches up well. Also, since it's an early days game, I'm begging for Dick Grayson to be Robin in this.

I always thought that walking out with the dead Joker in his arms was the end of that series anyway.

Well, remember that Rocksteady was pretty unproven before Arkham Asylum. All they did before Arkham was some forgettable PS2 FPS. Not saying this game will be guaranteed great, just don't dismiss it outright.
Anyway, I'm way more interested in the handheld game. Metroid-style game done by ex-Retro staff who worked on the Metroid Prime games? Sign me up!

I thought Scarecrow was going to be the main villain in the next game?

No Rocksteady has me really worried. I'll be waiting until after release to see some videos and hear what people have to say about it before I decide on getting it or not.
Hopefully they surprise me.

This seems to be that studios first official game, but the guy running the game did the first Prototype and a PS2 gen. game, Incredible Hulk: Ultimate destruction.
Deathstroke is apparently the main villain of the piece.

There is also an "Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate" for 3ds and Vita being released the same day. All I could really find on it. "Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate for 3DS and Vita, a 2.5-D Metroid-style game developed by Armature Studios, the development house led by ex-Retro staffers who worked on Metroid Prime."

I'm wary. No Rocksteady, no Paul Dini. I'll need to see videos and stuff before getting hyped.
If it was Rocksteady I'd be all over this.
So this game is about 8 assassins trying to kill Batman. We know Deathstroke is one of them. Want to take some guesses on the other ones?
Deadshot has to be one of them. Maybe Tally Man as well? Perhaps even KGBeast?

KGBeast would be cool. I'd also place bets on Lady Shiva appearing, maybe Merlyn, maybe David Cain with Cassandra?
I'd also mark to see Savant and Creote as left field placements

Oh, a video game prequel. Those are just dandy.

Supposedly this is the game's official boxart. Now it could just be a placeholder boxart(please let it be), but often times with these kind of games, the ones announced just months before their release, the first boxart they show tends to be the official final boxart. If that's the case, and this is the final boxart, well.....let's just hope they put more effort into the game.

Deathstroke looks like one of the Army of Two guys with that mask style.

He has the looks of Andre the Giant, and the strength of Barry Windham. Not to mention he's a hero to a few armadillos, a kangaroo and a small herd of bison.

That's always been his mask, hasn't it?
Also, what's wrong with a minimalist boxart? In this day and age it'd be different.

That's always been his mask, hasn't it? Yeah, but it was more cloth-like before, and now it's all metal, thus the big face shields from AOT was the first thing that came to mind.
