Batman: Arkham Origins will include multiplayer
Play as Batman, Robin or a gang member online
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC Entertainment today confirmed that Batman: Arkham Origins will ship with a mode that allows for online play.
The multiplayer component blends the traditional Arkham gameplay with third-person shooter mechanics and is in development by Splash Damage, the team behind Bethesda's Brink from 2011. Online play will be available on PC, X360, and PS3 - thus leaving out the Wii U version.
The Batman: Arkham Origins Online mode offers players the chance to hunt as Batman or Robin against friends and other gamers online. Players can also take on the role of a Super-Villain Elite and try to take down Batman and Robin, and anyone else who gets in their way. Fans will even be able call in the ultimate reinforcement to help turn the tide in any match by playing as The Joker or Bane themselves.
Taking place before the rise of Gotham City’s most dangerous criminals, Origins showcases a young and unrefined Batman as he faces a defining moment in his early career as a crime fighter that sets his path to becoming the Dark Knight.
Batman: Arkham Origins is scheduled to launch worldwide October 25, 2013 for PC, Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii U.
