A new Batman Arkham game for Oculus has just been announced. Here’s the teaser:

Also, is there a main Batman Arkham forum thread or do we wanna repurpose this thread for that?

As cool as VR technology might seem I don't think I'll be jumping in this time.

My dad is an oculus rift believer, so I can actually get this.

I DID try the Arkham VR game a long while back, and it was pretty good for what it was.

I just can't afford keeping up with VR technology. Those Oculus/PS VR's were in the 500-600 dollar range last I heard.

I haven't heard bad things about Arkham or Fallout or Skyrim VR though.

So are we just going to be fighting rats for the whole game? That's what I got out of the teaser.

First cats.

Then owls.

Then other bats.

Then birds.

And now rats.

Who do you think will play Ratman? Maybe Kevin Conroy did voicelines for him prior to his passing.

It could be a prequel game, so maybe Rodger Craig Smith?

I mean, it presumably has to be a prequel, given, y'know... events.

[up]It's implied by leaks that Arkham Batman will come back to life in season 4 of suicide squad. We probably won't see that with how the game bombed but uh....

I'm not on the KTSS hate jury, but honestly screw that noise. Game devs need to stop thinking they can release content piecemeal. I'm not buying four seasons of garbage just to Fix Fic their handling of Arkham Batman.

I feel like an obvious pick for Ratcatcher would be Jeffrey Combs, if only because he did damn awesome at that sort of role as the Rat King.

Batman Arkham Videos did a quick detail hunt on the teaser, confirming some Ratcatcher and Harvey Dent references. It's heavily implied to be an interquel between Origins and Asylum, with Roger Craig Smith accidentally retweeting his awareness of the teaser before retracting.

Also, in dubious canon, this Batman has actually confronted Ratcatcher before in Arkham Origins tie-in Game Book comic. Only problem is that directly confronting him usually ended in a grisley and unflatteringly dead end.

Speaking of Origins, when is that going to get a Switch port like the other Arkham games?

[up] No idea. Maybe WB Games is secretly ashamed of that entry in the Arkhamverse series, like Nintendo is with Super Mario Galaxy 2.
