Troy Baker Performs Monologue As The Joker And Settles Our ‘Arkham Origins’ Fears

by Cameron Shooshtari

Briefly: Batman: Arkham Origins will soon be out this month on the 25th, and the big question for Batman fans was how will the new voice of the Joker compare to that of the legendary Mark Hamill’s depiction. At a recent panel during New York Comic-Con, fans caught a glimpse of insanity as the new Joker (played by Troy Baker) recites a famous Joker monologue from Alan Moore’s The Killing Joke and absolutely nails it. Hamill should be proud.

Kevin Conroy (who has voiced Batman in the past two Arkham games) will not be reprising the Dark Knight, who will instead be voiced by Roger Craig Smith, best known for voicing Ezio Auditore (Assassin’s Creed) and Chris Redfield (Resident Evil) among many other roles.

Are you planning to pick up Batman: Arkham Origins when it launches later this month? What are you most looking forward to seeing in the game? Sound out below!

Deathstroke is Coming for ‘Arkham Origins’ Pre-Orders

by Josh Jackson

Yesterday, the full Batman: Arkham Origins trailer hit the web, showing Batman and Deathstroke duke it out like only they could. Batman is great and all, but wouldn’t it be awesome to have t a master assassin like Deathstroke at our fingertips? Well, if you pre-order the game from Amazon, you can.

Whether or not this DLC will be offered from other retailers is yet to be seen, but if  it’s anything like the content from previous Batman games, it’s sure to be available to everyone eventually. And will Deathstroke have his own mini campaign like Catwoman and Joker did? Or will he go the Robin and Nightwing route and only work for challenge maps? Those details haven’t been ironed out yet, but if kicking ass with Deathstroke isn’t enough of an incentive, (and if it isn’t, what’s wrong with you?) then the $10 credit should sweeten the deal.

Let us know below who else should make an appearance in the newest adventure of the Dark Knight! Batman: Arkham Origins hits on October 25th.
