Rocksteady Reveals All Arkham Knight DLC Coming In 2015

Want to know what you're getting for your $40 Season Pass ?

You've already received some content but now, developer Rocksteady Games has announced the complete lineup of Batman: Arkham Knight DLC scheduled to be released through the rest of 2015.

There are new skins, missions, modes, etc., and it begins with this month's addition of new Batmobile tracks and character skins, along with several new AR challenges. In November, we get the Batsuit and Batmobile on display in the upcoming 2016 film "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice," as well as two new Arkham Episode missions (Catwoman's Revenge and A Flip of a Coin). Rockstar says these episodes are basically "short, narrative vignettes that give a sense of what has happened to each of these characters after the events of Batman: Arkham Knight."

And then in December, fans receive Batman skins based Christopher Nolan's 2008 movie "The Dark Knight," plus the Original Arkham Batmobile for race mode and free roam. Lastly, there's the release of the Season of Infamy: Most Wanted story mode expansion, which the developer describes as follows:

"Mad Hatter is playing a sinister mind-game with Batman, and GCPD's finest are the pawns. Killer Croc has escaped from his maximum security cell and is wreaking havoc on a crashed airship. The League of Assassins has returned to Gotham City, but what is their motive and who is in charge? And Mister Freeze may be closer than ever to completing his life's work… but at what cost?"

Is that enough to satisfy you?

Catwoman is great, but there are other fellow heroes in the Batman universe.

We know the Robin Bundle Pack will become available as downloadable content on November 22 for $6.99. But another piece of DLC will hit before that, and it involves another familiar face.

It's Nightwing (aka Dick Grayson), the prodigy who has grown into a young man; he wields awesome Escrima Sticks and beats the tar out of overconfident bad guys. This pack also features two extra challenge maps, Wayne Manor and Main Hall, and an Animated Series Nightwing skin; this add-on content will also cost $6.99. Here's the trailer.
