It seems that Gotham will have a spit of the English weather in the upcoming Arkham Knight game. A recent interview with Dax Ginn, Brand Marketing Producer at Rocksteady Studios, reveals that it'll always be raining in Gotham. At first I thought this was some deep metaphor, but now I'm not so certain. Have a read for yourself:
"Gotham City has got a very specific atmosphere and we spent a lot of time on making sure that's right. It's not just one thing, it's a combination of the atmospherics of light and reflections, it's always raining, it's always night time, making sure that the echoes through the street, they sound right."
The game takes place a year after the last Rocksteady entry, with Scarecrow taking the lead. We all know it should have been Crazy Quilt taking lead, but I guess they're saving him for DLC...
"The story of Batman: Arkham Knight really picks up 12 months after the death of Joker in Arkham City, so Joker's death has left this vacuum and the Scarecrow has returned to really take control of that and deliver the vengeance that he has been planning since Batman took him down in Arkham Asylum.
Scarecrow is really unifying the rogue gallery and the intention of that unified threat is to destroy the Batman once and for all."
Who would you want to take lead of the villains in Arkham Knight? I think Scarecrow is a good choice, but I have a soft spot for the bizarre Golden Age guys too.
