Warner Bros. has announced details regarding what will be included in the PlayStation 3-exclusive Knightfall downloadable content for Batman: Arkham Origins.

No Caption Provided

In a post on the PlayStation Blog, WB Games Montreal community manager Hanny Duong revealed that this bundle will include the Knightfall and Classic TV series Batman skins, as well as three Combat maps and two Predator maps.

To see the Knightfall DLC in action, check out the video below.

Batman: Arkham Origins, a prequel to the main storyline, launches on October 25 for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, and Wii U. Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions are not in development. Series creator Rocksteady Studios is reportedly working on an all-new stylized Batman game.

In Batman: Arkham Origins, gamers will play as a "young, unrefined" Batman as he faces pivotal moments in his early career. Players will meet many important figures in the Batman universe for the first time in Arkham Origins.

The game also includes a series-first multiplayer mode (which will not be supported on the Wii U), developed by Brink studio Splash Damage.

@THE_JOKEr_459 I think it looks better than city. Aside from the waffer thin story, I was disapointed in the general size of the world. It wasn't even the size of Florence in AC2, but the city in origins is apperently twice as big, which sounds right.

@The-Neon-Seal @THE_JOKEr_459 My guess is that Batman: Arkham City has more explorable indoor areas than Assassin's Creed II.

A large fish informed me about the Adam West skin.

For a second there, I thought that exploding shark was pulling my leg.

I wish they let you play as these alternate skins from the start of the game.


It's annoying that you have to beat the game to play with your alt skins in Arkham City especially.


Then you have things like Nightwing and others only playable in the closed off "missions" and not in the open world.


Really wish rocksteady for their next batman game (they didn't make this one) would make it a true open world and allow you to play as Nightwing OR batman or such.

@Stiler I wish they would just drop the aweful challenge mode and put the effort into the world itself.

Quick question: is the Knightfall Batman costume the one worn by Jean-Paul Valley in the comic after his mental breakdown?

@vampyr64 Arkham games don't typically get 360 exclusives.

@Martyr77 If it's exclusive content then it will most likely be free for those who buy new copies. Open the case and it will have a one use code inside to download them.

Oh man, I may have to buy this game just for the DLC. I absolutely loved Knightfall Batman. Hopefully we'll get the Knightsend version too.

To turn a phrase from Hoban Washburne in regards to the Classics costume:

You see a man walking down the street in that outfit, you know he's not afraid of anything.

Those costumes are ridiculous. The Knightfall one is WAY too over the top, and the Classic TV one makes me think of the contrast of putting Dwayne Johnson in a bunny suit.

I need them both. :-P

I wonder if the skins will be available on the 360 at some point? I kind of want the tv series one because it looks ridiculous. Why did Wayne draw eyebrows on the cowl? Also it needs bat shark repellant spray or no deal.

@Canon100 They made that skin for arkham city. I think all the arkham city dlc skins are in origins for free! (maybe expect batman beyond??)

I wish they'd include a bunch of skins to unlock for the second playthrough. I love to play through the game in the classic 90s suit.

There was no Bane before Nightfall. Just like how there was no Doomsday before The Death of Superman.

@Armyboy5 You say that as if Toy Story is bad? If I recall correctly, it did break records at the box office.
