Batman: Arkham City builds upon the intense, atmospheric foundation of Batman: Arkham Asylum, sending players soaring into Arkham City, the new maximum security home for all of Gotham City's thugs, gangsters and insane criminal masterminds. Set inside the heavily fortified walls of a sprawling district in the heart of Gotham City, this highly anticipated sequel introduces a brand-new story that draws together a new all-star cast of classic characters and murderous villains from the Batman universe, as well as a vast range of new and enhanced gameplay features to deliver the ultimate experience as the Dark Knight.

Batman: Arkham City Armored Edition contains all of the content from Batman: Arkham City, including all available downloadable content, and introduces Battle Armored Tech (B.A.T.) Mode and the new Armored Suits for both Batman and Catwoman. Fans can become the Dark Knight like never before with the upgraded battle suit that gives players an additional power-up by allowing them to build kinetic energy during combat. When activated, players enter B.A.T. mode and dole out more damage than previously possible.

The Wii U GamePad provides instant access to the wrist-mounted Batcomputer throughout the game, allowing players to use the touch screen to seamlessly select objectives, choose their gadget, track forensic evidence, upgrade their gear, detonate explosive gel, and more, all while remaining immersed in the action. Additionally, all gadgets have been reimagined to utilize the power of the GamePad, offering an unprecedented level of accuracy when using the Batarang and scanning for clues.

Baby blue outline? Really, is that Wii U customary?

The design itself looks sick though

The new suit looks a lot like the old Batman Live one.

That controller doesn't come with the console, it has to be bought separate.

Also Zelda is starting to get really, really stale.

I was already itching to pick up the Wii-U and this has sent me over the top. I'm going to pre-order the Wii-U and Batman Arkham City Armored Edition. I mean this looks really sweet!

Oh, btw always remember haters gonna hate. Furthermore, Nintendo's Zelda isn't stale. Skyword Sword was a great game.

I love Nintendo haters. They think its cool to hate on Nintendo for being 'childish' and are 12 year olds that play Call of Duty because they think it makes them look cool and mature. Blood and guns does not make something mature, and anyone who thinks that is the most immature type of gamer out there.

The features on this version of the game don't seem great enough for me to consider investing into getting the new wii.

Nice, but can this game include additional characters BESIDES Catwoman? Seriously
