Batman Arkham Asylum DLC out 17th September

0

Eidos and Warner Bros. have announced the first downloadable content for the critical and commercial hit Batman: Arkham Asylum. On September 17, the Insane Night Map Pack will be available free of charge on both Xbox Live and the PlayStation Network.

The DLC will contain two new additions for the game’s challenge mode, a freeflow combat challenge and an invisible predator level. The combat challenge, dubbed “Totally Insane,” will add the Asylum’s resident lunatics to the mix. The lunatics, players may remember, had the characteristically insane habit of charging wildly at Batman with no concern for their own personal safety, and should make an interesting addition to the usual intensity of the combat challenges. The invisible predator challenge is called “Nocturnal Hunter.” Both challenges will be set in the game’s secure records facility, a place unvisited in the original challenges.

When the darkness awoke, evil flooded over the land of Gothicus. Dispel the darkness in your realm, uncover your memory about terrible events and fight the evil queen who tyrannizes the kingdom… the queen you loved. Dungeon Hunter is a 3D epic quest set in a dark fantasy world, in the tradition of the most successful action RPGs.

  • Discover the enormous world of Gothicus and achieve different types of quests and missions: explore, kill, protect, find special items… 5 faeries, each with their own personality, will help you, providing protection, powers and advice.
  • Create your own character: choose his class from Rogue (to act stealthily), Knight (to use the blade as your favorite weapon) or Mage (to perform the most powerful magic).
  • Evolve and progress along your adventure. Gain experience points by killing enemies or succeeding in certain quests, and choose how to distribute them according to the skills you want to favor.
  • Tons of items, weapons and armors to find or buy from the merchant. They will change the look and abilities of your character.
  • A great gameplay experience (hack ‘n’ slash) for real-time fights, providing a heavy dose of fun for everybody.
