Batman: Arkham Asylum which was released on August 25 , 2009 was been a big hit. This third-person perspective action-adventure game have got a high praises from the critics. It also went into Guinness World Record for most critically acclaimed superhero game ever. This game earned several awards including “Spike Video Game Award” and was given Best game BAFTA Award. Now its sequel “Batman: Arkham City” is getting ready to rewrite the history and making arrangements to come into markets in the late 2011. Even though its release still got time , this was announced in the 2009 only. It released a teaser recently which I should say is rocking the viewers.
Coming to the story of the game , The story for Arkham City takes place one year after the events of Arkham Asylum. Quincy Sharp, former warden of Arkham Asylum, has taken credit for stopping the Joker, and used that notoriety to become mayor of Gotham City. As neither Arkham nor Blackgate Prison are in any condition to hold inmates, Sharp buys out a large section of Gotham’s slums and arms the perimeter with private military contractors from a group called Tyger in order to create “Arkham City”. The prisoners are brought into Arkham City and are given free rein, as long as they do not attempt escape. To oversee the city, Sharp uses psychiatrist Hugo Strange who appears to have his own secret agenda for the city. Batman maintains a vigil over the city, worried that the situation may get out of hand. Part of the setup for “Arkham City” was contained in plans in a hidden room in Sharp’s office in Arkham Asylum. The events of the game are set in motion when Two-Face, seeking to gain status among the inmates and other villains outside the city, devises a plan to publicly execute Catwoman. Batman decides for both the safety of Gotham and of his past relationship with Catwoman that he must stop the execution by entering Arkham City himself.
