Geekscape Mobile: ‘Batman: Arkham Origins’ Headed To iOS and Android!

Briefly: It seems as though a version of Batman: Arkham Origins is headed to nearly every game-playing device on the planet. Warner Bros. has announced that a mobile edition of Batman: Arkham Origins will be coming to iOS and Android devices this holiday season.

Developed by NetherRealm Studios, who recently released the phenomenal Injustice: Gods Among Us, and also developed the 2011 iOS title Batman: Arkham City Lockdown, Origins looks like a great evolution of their previous mobile Batman title.

You’ll play as Batman as he fights his way through Gotham City’s most dangerous locales and encounters a number of DC Comics’ most deadly assassins. As you progress, you’ll be able to upgrade your character’s skills and fighting tactics, but you’ll also be able to unlock a number of unique Batsuits by earning in-game currency and rewards, and fans that also own a console version of the game will be able to access exclusive bonus content that is not available elsewhere.

Batman: Arkham City Lockdown was a fantastic mobile experience, and a great on-the-go companion to Arkham City. The game felt a lot like Infinity Blade (which isn’t a bad thing), but definitely had a certain charm that’s present with all NetherRealm titles. If you haven’t played it already, I’d definitely recommend giving Arkham City Lockdown a download, as it’ll give you a great idea of what the Arkham Origins mobile game will feel like.
