Gamers will move in the shadows, instigate fear amongst their enemies and confront The Joker and Gotham City's most notorious villains who have taken over the asylum.

UPDATE!!! BATMAN ARKHAM ASYLUM DELAYED
Thanks to our friend Greg we learn that Batman Arkham Asylum has been delayed.
Note new release date.
May 1, 2009 - The Internets are burning up with rumors about Batman: Arkham
Asylum getting delayed until the fall and moments ago, Warner Bros. confirmed
the bad news with IGN.
"Eidos Interactive and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment can today confirm
that Batman: Arkham Asylum will be released at the end of summer 2009," a spokesperson
said. "This additional time will allow us to ensure Batman: Arkham Asylum is
of the highest quality for gamers."
As gamers will recall, Arkham Asylum was set to be released on June 23, 2009.
Summer officially ends in September, so look for Batman's latest adventure --
a third-person action title pitting him and his gadgets against everyone in
the nuthouse -- sometime around then.
Thanks Greg!
