‘Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate’ Announced For 3DS And Vita

Along with today’s announcement of Batman: Arkham Origins, Warner Bros. Interactive announced a very exciting portable spinoff.

Very little information was announced about this side project, but we do know that it’s being developed by Armature Studios, a relatively new developer… made up largely of ex Retro Studios employees (creators of the Metroid Prime trilogy). Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate will release for 3DS and Vita on the same day as its console sibling (October 25th). It’s said to be a 2.5D Super Metroid / Castlevania style action game. That sounds absolutely amazing.

Look for more news from both games in the coming weeks. We couldn’t be more excited!
