The continuation of Warner Bros.\u2019 Batman Arkham series seems as sure as everyone\u2019s favorite costumed vigilante brooding atop a gargoyle statue in a pose of solitude. In a call to investors (via VG247), the publisher rather offhandedly states that an additional Arkham will swoop in sometime this year.<\/p>\n

\"Batman:<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd we also have a strong games release this year, which will include the next release in the Batman Arkham franchise,\u201d Warner Bros. CFO John Martin says. \u201cSo all in all, we expect Warners to post another very strong year in 2013. And with a little luck, the year should be as good or maybe even a little bit better than 2012.\u201d<\/p>\n

Details for Arkham 3 are unknown, but VG247\u2032s \u201cown sources\u201d claims developer Rocksteady isn\u2019t involved. Whispers of a prequel plot taking place during the 1950s-1970s Silver Age era of Batman\u2019s saga were passed around since last summer and hinted of showing Batman\u2019s first encounter with The Joker\u2014who, devoid of comic-book writer Frank Miller\u2019s psychological themes, might revert to his more campy origins. On a more nerdy note (pushes up glasses), the Silver Age marks the first appearance of Arkham City mastermind Ra\u2019s al Ghul, so that could potentially factor into the \u201cfirst meetings\u201d angle.<\/p>\n
