Batman: Arkham City launch trailer ties it all together

by Steve Watts, Oct 14, 2011 8:15am PDT

It seems like recently a week wouldn't go by without a new villain or character reveal for Batman: Arkham City. Now, as the game sets to release on consoles next week, Rocksteady has released a launch trailer that highlights the main conflict with Hugo Strange, and briefly teases the full gallery of villains.

If nothing else, this trailer is dense. It addresses the death of the Waynes, Batman's solitude, various psychopaths, and still leaves room for Batman to punch thugs, as he has been known to do. Check out the trailer below.
