Batman: Arkham City ad shows Robin gameplay

A Gamestop ad showing off the retailer’s pre-order bonus DLC gives us a glimpse of Robin in action in Batman: Arkham City.

Robin is being offered as bonus content at several retailers across multiple territories – in the US, you can also nab him at Best Buy.

Arkham City releases on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in just over a week. A Wii U version is expected to follow.

Thanks, KAP.

Just looks like Batman with a stick.
Also why is he on the cover of the game?

@3 Yeah it does, but it still looks pretty cool. I don’t know what’s people beef with Robin anyways. A ton of people hate him lol.

pedophile side of Batman?

Seriously? Surely Robin is 16+ so even in a very bizarre world if those two were at it, in the eyes of the law (UK law) he wouldn’t be classed as a pedo even if Batman 50 and Robin was 16.

If Batman was 17 and Robin was 15, then he would be classed as a pedophile.

Yet in normal everyday relationships between boys and girls, hardly anyone sees that as wrong.

@9

Obviously you never watched the show or read the Comics. Batman employed a young kid (8-12) as his side kick when he was clearly in his mid 30s and he didn’t do it just once he did it three times with getting one little boy “killed”. Pedophile.

Are there any plans to stop the spambots by the way?

Yeah @11 is right, there were very young Robin(s). It’s a bit surprising that they don’t have a Nightwing costume. I was definitely expecting that, maybe it will come later?
