The release date for 'Batman: Arkham City' is fast approaching. There's bound to be another official trailer or two before the October 18 release date. An update was given through the Playstation Network's online magazine. CBM was pointed to this youtube version of the episode.

As you can see, many familiar faces are returning including some that weren't in the first game. What do you think of the game footage? Having an entire city to roam around is really going to change things.

Thanks to BoboKrypto101 for pointing this in our direction.

Update

Just saw this footage of Robin over at CBM.

sweeet

Mad Hatter, Calender man, Poison Ivy, Bane, Joker, Deadshot, Riddler, Penguin, Mr. Freeze, Hugo Strange....the list goes on.
 
This game can't come out soon enough, I'm literally going insane trying to waste two weeks till the game comes out. Everything about this looks awesome. Playing as Catwoman, Robin, or Nightwing, the alternate costumes, the bonus missions, the graphics, the voice acting, the upgrades.....it's all just....so.....beautiful.

Solomon Grundy looks really cool, as does Mr. Freeze. I like it when game developers maybe tweak or slightly alter the appearance of a character and their costume, it brings a great new aesthetic appeal to their presence.

Can't wait such a good game

Gotta love how Riddler has a bit of a Saw like feel to him in this game. Sooo look forward to this.

This game looks freakin' amazing! Cannot wait!!

:(

I LOOOOVVVEEE that they're using all the characters, but where's Scarecrow? He was the best part of the first game!

Couple more weeks......

Awesome :D

Hello Batman. I want to play a game.

Hooorah!!!!!

I am really excited, arkham asylum was one of my favorite games of the year.

I'd like to see the Scarecrow and Killer Croc. Mostly Scarecrow if he show'd up I'd be super please.

Still this game is already a day one buy.

sweet now get in my ps3 already

Updated with Robin footage!

Let's Do This........

RED ROBIN!!!!!!

Already pre-paid for my copy already. lol

Robin looks cool. Kind of old.

sweet now get in my ps3 already

He looks like an older Damian Wayne.

almost here.....

Lots of villains in this game, but I still hate Robin's design in the game.

GRUNDY!!!!

paid off my limited edition pre order. the 18th cannot come soon enough. crazy to see how much more vast and detailed this world is by comparison. all the little secrets they have littered throughout the city. it's gonna be a blast

I heard a rumor that in the final act Batman fights a kitchen sink

Wow. I desperately want this game now!

Still trying to make the decision between a pre-order at Game Stop or Best Buy...decisions, decisions. Any thoughts people?

I preordered at BestBuy in the states. robin challenge rooms are more fun to me from a level of variation than just a bonus level which you play as bats. plus how cool will it be to bomb around as Robin? haha does the states get the bonus robin skins??

Why's he got the cloak on his head

Tim's alternate costume of the Bruce Timm version looks like Dick Grayson in Tim's Robin costume. lol

ROBINNNNNN!!!

i hope the Batman and Nightwing skins become available for purchase. I cant not get Robin, so ive preordered at Best Buy.

At least all the skins and characters will show up as DLC. I don't mind waiting a bit to get them

yup

I like the Red Robin costume lol

your welcome guys

games already getting amazing reviews, originally i was scared that they were putting in to much content and it was gonna hurt the game, but 3 well known sites/magazines have given almost perfect scores.

@super_psycho: Yes, it is.
