Title: First Batman: Arkham Origins Trailer Shows Deathstroke and Black Mask 
Post by: bluelander on May 20, 2013, 12:18:07 PM

Deathstroke confirmed as playable character, but will he be available on the Wii U version?

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/34261

The first trailer for Batman: Arkham Origins shows Batman busting some crooks before he encounters Deathstroke for a battle in a storage facility. After the battle is over, Black Mask makes an appearance telling Deathstroke that he's "not the only assassin in town." A wounded Batman is then seemingly bludgeoned by Black Mask. The trailer ends with Batman standing on a bridge.

The villain Deathstroke will be a playable character, courtesy of a pre-order bonus that is currently only confirmed for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC. The status of the DLC for the Wii U version is unconfirmed. We have reached out to Warner Bros. for comment.

The Wii U DLC for a recent Warner Bros. game, Injustice: Gods Among Us, is set to release several months after the other versions, and the Wii U version didn't participate in any pre-order bonuses.

Batman: Arkham Origins is set for an October 25 release on Wii U, and Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate, a 3DS game made by former Metroid Prime developers, will be out on the same day. Check out the trailer below.

WB, stop. You're just making me to wait for complete edition with all DLCs on it.

If you're planning on getting the Wii U version, dont get your hopes up. I'm certainly not.

"A wounded Batman is then seemingly bludgeoned by Black Mask. The trailer ends with Batman standing on a bridge."

That wasn't Batman. 

It was a surviving henchmen from the beginning.

He was crawling out of the warehouse, still burning from the explosion.

So were there any impressions for the 3DS game, since that's the more interesting one?

I get the feeling that I won't be able to do anything as awesome as what's depicted in the trailer while playing the game.
