Taking to the PS Blog, Rocksteady Marketing Game Producer Guy Perkins confirmed that the Batman: Arkham Knight Season Pass content comes to an end today with the December DLC update.
Calling today “the biggest content drop to date,” Perkins says the new Season of Infamy expansion was designed by Rocksteady to “tie up a few loose ends from the previous Batman: Arkham games.”
Building the character models from scratch for each of the four Season of Infamy characters – Killer Croc, Mad Hatter, Mister Freeze, and Ra’s Al Ghul – here’s what you need to know about the missions in the expansion:
- Wonderland – The Mad Hatter makes things personal as the Super-Villain lures Batman into a demented, hallucinatory battle of wits across Gotham City and within the pages of a twisted story book.
- Beneath The Surface – The World’s Greatest Detective and Nightwing venture out to investigate Iron Heights, a flying airship prison that housed Killer Croc, after it crashed in the waters surrounding Gotham City.
- Shadow War – Picking up after the events of Batman: Arkham City, Batman’s devout moral code is pushed to its limits as Ra’s Al Ghul’s health rebounds with the help of the League of Assassins.
- In From The Cold – Mr. Freeze returns to Gotham City, where he is immediately entrapped in Arkham Knight’s Militia and Scarecrow’s plan to destroy Batman. Arkham Knight’s Militia has kidnapped Nora and will return her to Mr. Freeze in exchange for Batman’s capture.
Season of Infamy will be available on its own for £7.99/€9.99. Since € typically equals $, expect it to cost $9.99 in North America.
There’s also a number of other pieces of DLC out today, as you can see below (prices are for non-Season Pass holders):
