More Baddies Coming to Arkham Asylum?
Posted by Jacob Lopez on 07.15.2009
According to IMDB, this may be the case.
We already know about some of the villains in the upcoming Batman game, the ones who have been announced so far: The Joker, Poison Ivy and a few others.
IMDB has listed a few additional characters who have checked into the dark halls of Arkham.
Who are the new guys?
- Two-Face
- Mr. Freeze
- the Penquin
- Ra's al Ghul
- Blue Beetle.
Edit: I was informed by one of our readers that the Blue Beetle is a good guy. Sorry about that.
Kotaku reports that they have contacted Warner. Unfortunately, they got the expected response. Warner can only comment on announced characters.
Damn IMDB for ruining the surprise...and damn me for ruining it for you.
That would be a very interesting cameo though as he's really not even a Batman character.

Has the riddler been confirmed anywhere?

Toby,
I will go ahead and fix that. Admittedly, I don't know much about the Batman universe.
Thanks for the heads up, and being pretty cool about it.

riddler is confirmed due to achievments relating to him being announced.

Dogpound,
Even though he hasn't been "officially" confirmed that I know of. There is a screenshot floating around with a picture of what looks like his holding cell.
I can't post the direct link in the comment, but a google image search for, "Riddler Arkham Asylum," should turn up the screen.

IMDB is user submitted is it not? Hell, at one point, they said The Dark Knight was a prequel to Batman 1989.
Grain of salt me thinks.

The Riddler is listed on that IMDB page. As far as I know I don't think there have been images or in game screenshots of him though.

imdb is as reliable as wikipedia. it's all user submitted.

Eh, don't worry about Jacob. It's not a big deal. Just because I'm a geek doesn't mean I expect everyone else to be. ;)
As others have pointed out though the content on IMDB is user submitted and the inclusion of Blue Beetle gives me pause. The other villains popping up in the game in some form wouldn't surprise me. (Maybe Ra's... especially if he's an inmate. That would need a really good explanation to be plausible.) But Beetle popping up would be very much outside of the purview of what we've seen of the game, content wise, thus far.
Not impossible, but definitely improbable.

The Riddler has been confirmed, in a sense. There are side-quests revolving around riddles that he gives to you. I think that he hacks into Batman's radio frequency, or something.
