Warner Bros and DC Entertainment today announced Batman: Arkham City Armoured Edition for the Wii U. Developed by WB Games Montréal, the title will build on Rocksteady version of the game, taking advantage of the Wii U's GamePad. The game is scheduled for a release later in the year.
Batman: Arkham City Armoured Edition contains all available DLC, and introduces players to the Battle Armored Tech (B.A.T.) Mode (see the screens below), and some new costumes.
"Batman: Arkham City Armoured Edition harnesses the power of the Wii U system and the Wii U GamePad with features that allow fans to further immerse themselves in the role of Batman like never before," said Martin Tremblay, President, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. "WB Games Montréal evolved the incredible hit game by Rocksteady into a truly unique experience on Wii U."
"WB Games Montréal is very excited to unveil the all new Wii U features we've created in Batman: Arkham City Armoured Edition," said Reid Schneider, Vice President and Executive Producer, WB Games Montréal. "The new controller allows for a different twist on the Batman: Arkham City game, as players now have the power of the Batcomputer and gadgets in the palm of their hands."
"Congratulations to Rocksteady: it's pulled off the same trick on us for a third time in a row - and it still feels fresh, haunting and funny all at the same time."
"Consider this the second act, the better half, the conclusion after the cliffhanger - Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi (without the weak bits) rolled into one."
