Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate Coming to PS3, Xbox 360, PC and Wii U

 

With revamped features and HD graphics.

 

Warner Bros. has announced Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate- Deluxe Edition will be available on PS3, Xbox 360, Wii U and PC from April 1 in North America and April 2 in Europe.

 

The game was originally released on 3DS and Vita, though developer Armature Studio is working to bring a HD version of the 2.5D action title to consoles and PC.

 

The new version will be available via PSN, Xbox Live Marketplace, Nintendo eShop and Steam, and comes with a new map and hint systems, along with objective tracking, 5.1 surround sound and a fully voiced narrative.

 

Rumours started flying a couple of weeks ago that a revamped version of the game was on the way after a leaked XBLA marketplace listing suggested it was in the works.

 

Blackgate was originally released on PS Vita and the 3DS; in our review, we thought that it was a fairly decent extension of the Batman series for mobile devices.

Well I guess more people might be willing to give this a look now, especially as it falls in April which currently only has two eShop games being released in it at the end of the month. Edited by Retro_Link

Not surprised to see it come to consoles (as if a western developer/publisher would ever make a true handheld game truly exclusive...) but I am surprised to see it come to Wii U! Nice to see that WBros haven't completely abandoned the console :)

 

Too bad that the game isn't really that good though... Especially disappointing when you consider that the game was directed by several Metroid Prime leads...
