Batman: Arkham Knight re-releases next week

Like the start of The Dark Knight Rises, Batman has gone missing.

Like the start of The Dark Knight Rises, Batman has gone missing. His most recent game, Arkham Knight, was a bit of a mess on a PC, so the caped crusader has had a few-months-long sulk while Warner Bros and friends patch it up.

We already knewthat Bats would be returning to his crimefighting duties at the end of October, and now have a specific date. Arkham Knight is going back on sale on October 28, hopefully in a state where it, y'know, actually works. Here's Warner Bros saying as much in a new statement:

"At 10 am PDT, Oct. 28th, Batman: Arkham Knight will be re-released for the PC platform. At the same time we’ll also be releasing a patch that brings the PC version fully up-to-date with content that has been released for console (with the exception of console exclusives)."

That content comprises a Photo mode, Big Head mode, an Arkham Asylum Skin for Batters, and a choice of characters for the game's combat AR challenges. There's a huge list of stuff that been released for season pass owners too, including extra story missions, skins, and new tracks for Arkham Knight's beloved batmobile.
