Warner Bros have snapped up a series of web domains that seem to reveal it’s ideas for new names for the sequel and some possible plot pointers too! We already know that Arkham Asylum 2 won't take place in Arkham Asylum, although Rocksteady has remained tight-lipped on where the sequel will be set. It's previously been rumoured that along with the return of the Joker, the cast of villains will also feature The Penguin, Mr Freeze, Talia Al Ghul and Two-Face as well as an appearance from The Riddler.
From the new list of Warner Bros .com domains:
Arkhamcity
BatmanArkhamCity
BatmanBrokenground
BatmanNewArkham
BatmanGrandDelusion
BatmanRiseofArkham
BatManSiegeOfGotham
BatmanStateOfVillainy
As for the domains that possibly reveal details of Arkham Asylum 2's plot:
CityOfArkham
CloseArkhamCity
PeopleForGotham
StopMayorSharp (In the first game, Warden Quincy Sharp was running for mayor of Gotham)
WheresBruceWayne.
Now, what has any of this got to do with Batman 3 you ask? Well, Warner Bros failed to cash in with a movie tie-in for The Dark Knight (although a game was said to be in development) so it's likely that with the script for the next Nolan movie already written they could be planning a game which, like the majority of tie-ins, will share it's name with any of the above listed web domains! "Rise of Arkham"? "Siege of Gotham"? What do you guys think? Have your say in the usual place!
