Pre-order bonuses for Batman: Arkham Knight may have surfaced prematurely, thanks to a leaked promotional ad from Gamestop.

Batman News originally got hold of the image, which you can see below, offering anyone who pre-orders the final chapter in Rocksteady's saga at the store a DLC pack where you play as Harley Quinn, and another in which you take on the role of Red Hood.



While we already knew a playable version of Joker's psychotic girlfriend was on the way in Arkham Knight, this is the first time we've heard Red Hood will also join the party, though by the looks of things only if you pre-order at Gamestop.

A range of villains have already been confirmed for the title, including Riddler, Penguin and Two-Face. We also know Harley Quinn is set to appear in the upcoming climactic chapter to the Arkham series, and pre-ordering will let you play as her. Kevin Conroy is confirmed to return as Batman, while Troy Baker has strongly hinted he'll once again lend his pipes to voicing Two-Face.

Originally due for release later this year, the decision was made to push the title back to 2015, with rumours suggesting it may hit PS4, Xbox One and PC on February 24.

I never wanted Red Hood in any Arkham game because he'd have to play a big role considering his character and I'm not a big Red Hood fan, but this looks awesome! Him being DLC is actually a great idea!

So...why is he called Red Hood? I hate it when they give characters these pointless names .

The Red Hood was a secret identity used by many criminals in the past to conceal their identities. The most famous of the Red Hoods was the Joker. He was Red Hood before he fell into the vat at Ace Chemicals and became the Joker. Jason Todd hates Joker and wants him dead, so he took the role of Red Hood as somewhat irony as he tries to kill the Joker and get his revenge on Batman.

Rzr u fuk.

The joke was clearly that I was feigning confusion over him being called Red Hood, ignoring the obvious fact that he wears a red hood.

I have the Under the Red Hood animated movie. Loved it, so this should be sweet...hope they eventually release this to general sale. Fuck these store specific pre-orders.

^^ Ohhhh.

^ I saw that too but I never really jumped on the Red Hood bus. Just like I never really liked Nightwing. I think I just dont like Robins.

Eh, I'm not familiar enough with them all to truly dislike of like them...

Though, Robin turned up in Arkham City, offered to help and Batman was like "LOL fuck off" and that was it xD

Under The Red Hood..... god I hate the Joker voice actor in that movie.

I liked him >_>.

Although I may be biased because he's also Bender.

You like the gays then Mink?

I've made it perfectly clear I don't like you, so no.

 

Ouch. That was a huge burn.

Meh, I've had worse and came back from it.

I told your mom that last night once she finished polishing my nuts with her mouth.

My tag partner, ladies and gentlemen.

I see we've reached the autistic portion of this thread.
