BATMAN: ARKHAM ORIGINS

The game that started it all. Batman: Arkham Origins features an expanded Gotham City and introduces an original prequel storyline set several years before the events of Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City. It features a young and inexperienced Batman as he faces life changing events in his early career as a crime fighter on his way to becoming the Dark Knight. Batman faces off with the most powerful man in the city and the leader of all of Gotham’s criminal underworld; Black Mask. He sets a huge bounty on Batman, which lures 8 highly dangerous assassins: the strong and powerful Bane; expert marksman Deadshot; mercenary for hire Deathstroke; poisonous contortionist Copperhead, the pyromaniac Firefly; the sparkling Electrocutioner; deformed criminal Killer Croc; and combat expert Shiva.
