New Batman: Arkham Knight Trailer Features Showdown At Ace Chemicals
By Nick Tylwalk
Batman: Arkham Knight isn’t going to be playing on consoles this holiday season, but that doesn’t mean Rocksteady and Warner Bros. Interactive are simply going to let people dream of other video games if they have something to say about it.

To make sure the much anticipated final chapter in the Arkham series isn’t out of sight, out of mind, a new trailer was released today that features Batman infiltrating Ace Chemicals. That’s one Gotham City business with special significance, as it’s the place (depending on which version of his origin is the “real” one) where the Joker was born.
After getting the scoop on the Arkham Knight from Oracle, Batman makes his move, and we get to see environmental takedowns, the Batmobile in action and some of the series’ typically bone-crunching combat moves as he makes his move to find Scarecrow. I had a chance to play part of this level myself this summer at E3, and it’s as fun as it looks in the video.
It’s going to be a long seven months until the game finally hits stores, but at least that’ll give the Rocksteady crew plenty of time to polish everything up. Batman: Arkham Knight is coming to PS4, Xbox One and PC on June 2, 2015.
