Did the Arkham Origins have anything to do with the asylum?

Keeping Arkham in the title names seems so pointless if it isn't about the actual Arkham Asylum, I thought Arkham City was a title stretch, this is getting a bit ridiculous.

Next title should be Arkham Halloween, just because.

No, it doesn't. It is a prequel to the series. It takes place in the early years of Batman's career. It revolves around Black Mask putting a hit out on Batman.

But the story deals with them having to create a prison for them since blackgate wasn't working. Hence the origin of Arkham .

Sounds dodgy, Wasn't Arkham already a Asylum within the video game canon before Batman came to be, or even born. The recordings of Amadeus Arkham was very similar to the comic, Arkham Asylum: Serious House on Serious Earth. One of the things I really liked about the first game.

The stuff that came out today about the world being larger sounds reeeeeeeeeally off putting.

*MikeandRaph87* · 03-05-2014, 05:55 PM

Hush heads up the game with Two Face,Scarecrow, and Harley(minus Joker?). Should be interesting. Hope its easier to beat.

What game was supposed to have a Silver Age feel and incorporate the Justice League. Was that a Lego or a Arkham concept? Did it get scraped? I would love that idea!

Arkham Knight is apparently the name of the new villain. Yeah.

Probably the next game.

I have a feeling the Batman Arkham series is turning into the next Assassin's Creed. Meaning there will be a new game almost every year now.

I hope not though.

It's like people don't read when you say your read this game will be the last in the series.....

It's the last of the Arkham series, it doesn't mean its the last Batman game.

If you honestly think WB is going to give up a huge money-making franchise you're kidding yourself. I wouldn't be surprised if the team that made Origins is working on another Batman game themselves to be due out in 2015.

I haven't played the game, but my friend wouldn't shut the hell up about it. From my understanding the game has little to nothing to do with Arkham. The main story is of Batman taking down Black mask and his hired guns. But yeah the title I guess would be appropriate.

No, you said Arkham series turning into ac and I just said last of the series. If this is the really the last game in the series then it ain't gunna be like that. Never said it'll be the last Batman game, don't know how you even got that. Batman had games before Arkham and there will be games after.

The title, "Arkham Origins" is because Arkham Asylum technically doesn't exist in that game. The prisoners are in Blackgate prison. Commission Gordon wants an asylum to hold the prisoners and that's what leads to Arkham Asylum.

This isn't hard to understand. What he means, very clearly, is that this style of Batman game will almost certainly continue, though perhaps not under the Arkham name. The comparison to AC being that it becomes a multi-studio series that moves away from a two to three year cycle and towards annualization. This has pretty much already happened. Anyone who thinks the Arkham style of Batman games goes away after Rocksteady moves on is clueless. IF they're even allowed to move on.

*Slade* · 03-05-2014, 10:58 PM

Guess what I read and what he meant are two different things..that's fine.

Glad Rocksteady is keeping Joker dead.

I agree, the series has just made to much money and the fan demand is just too great for them to ignore.

Well, here are some in-game screenshots of the game, including a look at the Arkham Knight.

The trailer was awesome and judging from the screenshots, the game doesn't look that much different from the previous entries. I gotta say, I am a little disappointed to see that characters still look over buffed. I was hoping for something a little more refined, like what was seen in the trailer. Oh well, still very much looking forward to this one.
