Batman: Arkham Knight Trailer Shows The Depth of Gotham City

This Batman: Arkham Knight trailer shows Gotham like never before.

Before the 49th second in the trailer I was not excited for Batman: ArkhamKnight.  Arkham Asylum was great and even though Arkham City fizzled out toward the end, I enjoyed it.  I was looking forward to Arkham Knight, but I wouldn’t call it excited… Until the 49th second. You see Batman descending a tower, showing exactly how tall the buildings in Arkham Knight can be, then guiding the concrete jungle that is Gotham city.  We finally get a chance to see the Batmobile show off not only it’s Battle Mode, but also give us a look at what Gotham looks like on the ground level.  As compared to Arkham Origins, Gotham looks like a living city — with cars and people on the streets.  If there was any doubt, looks like Rocksteady still has it.
