Amazon Germany Lists Batman: Arkham Knight – Game of the Year Edition
Opps, it appears Amazon Germany may have jumped the gun before the game was officially announced. Listed on a Amazon Germany listing, Batman: Arkham Night is getting a Game of the Year Edition.
This listing includes pre-orders for PS4, Xbox One and PC, a July release date and a full price point of $49.99 Euros. This comes out to a whopping $72 Canadian which seems a tad pricey.
Given this listing is appearing before any official announcement, we believe it will be pulled soon. Regardless, it does not appear to be a fake and looks legit.
We reviewed Arkham Night last year and loved it. Doug had this to say about it:
“In the end, how good is Arkham Knight? It’s the best Batman game you’ll play and by that measure, the best superhero game to date. The identity of the Arkham Knight is controversial, but it works when you fit it in to the overall story arc of the game. The plot weaves a taut, psychological campaign that brings you into the darkest areas of Gotham including the murky and even darker depths of Batman’s psyche. It also manages to punch you right in the feels quite often, and reinforces how truly horrifying the Joker was as a villain. There was a little too much focus on the Knight’s militia in the sidequests and a few too many tank battles; however, these small issues do not take away from this truly magnificent game. If you’re anything like me, you’ll have dug a small child’s Batsuit out of the basement and sit glued to the TV as you attempt to save Gotham all over again. A terrific sign off, Rocksteady.”
