If you haven’t finished Batman: Arkham City yet, don’t read this.
Seriously.
During a recent Reddit AMA, Batman: Arkham Knight developer Rocksteady handled a number of questions asked about their upcoming game.
One gamer asked if Rocksteady had written itself into a corner by killing Batman villain The Joker at the end of the game.
“I think it’s quite the opposite,” Rocksteady’s Gaz Deaves replied.
“[Writer Sefton Hill] has said that when they started work on Batman: Arkham City, they had the vision of the final scene Joker’s death almost from the start, and looked at the story from the perspective of the events that would lead to that point. With Batman: Arkham Knight, that ending is the point that we jump off from, asking ‘what happens when Joker is removed from Gotham’ and looking at the fallout from those events.”
Batman: Arkham Knight heads to Windows PC, PS4 and Xbox One in June 2015.
