According to a reveal of the upcoming Game Informer Magazine (hitting stands August 18) cover, Eidos and developer Rocksteady Studios are working on a Batman game unrelated to the Batman Dark Knight film. The game, which is called Batman: Arkham Asylum, features a storyline revolving around the institution that houses Gotham’s most diabolical criminals.
The story begins when The Joker manages to escape Arkham after a simple prison transfer goes terribly awry.. The story will be co-written by Paul Dini, a veteran comic writer and who credits include work on Batman: The Animated Series.
The million dollar question is why Eidos? Well, Warner Bros. has made an investment in SCi Entertainment, parent company of Eidos, so giving them this wonderful license is a good way to get a return on that investment. Of course, Eidos hasn’t had the best track record in the last couple of years, but that’s another story. We wish them all the luck in the world with this one..
