Batman Arkham Knight New Trailer: 8 Things We Learned

By Sam Heard /

1. Arkham Knight Is A Beast

The latter half of the trailer following Scarecrow€™s monologue shows the Bat kicking ass in various different manners €“ he smashes through a blockade with the Batmobile, electrocutes a thug by smashing his head into a computer and bursts forth from his trusty ride to glide high into the dark Gotham night. However, Batman€™s awe-inspiring display of power comes to an abrupt end with the arrival of the titular Arkham Knight onto the scene. The mysterious villain hits the Bat with a thunderous straight-right while flying through the air before placing a boot on his chest and lining up a shot at the Dark Knight€™s head. It is rare to see Batman even matched in combat so to see him dominated in this way in the game€™s trailer is a shocker. While laying this beat down on the Bat, the villain ominously says €œthere is no savior. No more hope. No more Batman€. Scary stuff, right? Though his voice gives very little away, there are some who are already speculating that the voice-profile fits with that of Jason Todd. We Bat-fanatics truly need very little to get us going.
