But you’d be forgiven for not noticing he ever left. The Arkham Asylum excitement was only just dying down when this teaser trailer for the new game was released. It features a clearly unwell Joker, and many lunatics who are not in an asylum. Time will tell whether or not this game is set out in the streets of Gotham City, or whether the events of this trailer are merely a fractured nightmare taking place in Batman’s head. Whatever it is, the devs seems to be going with the popular ‘crumbly sequel’ aesthetic. (Which is quite an achievement considering that everything in the first game was falling apart anyway!)
We didn’t really get to confront all of Batman’s enemies in the first game – here’s hoping for some Two-Face, Penguin and Mad Hatter mayhem this time round. If there’s anything you really want to see in this next game, vent your fanboy excitement in the comments box!
