Arkham City… Now with added DICK!

That’s right. I just recently learned that the 4th Playable character to feature in Batman: Arkham City (along with Catwoman, Robin and the Dark Knight himself) is none other than Nightwing. For those who don’t know (and where have you been, seriously?) Nightwing is the grown-up incarnation of the original Robin, Dick Grayson, who has briefly assumed the mantle of the Batman from Bruce Wayne many times over the years and is now a hero in his own right.

Not too sure about the Beiber style hair-do but I guess it makes sense in the overall tone of the game. The costume/armour looks great and I like how it is similar to the “bolted together panels” look that Batman has. I am looking forward to seeing what Nightwing can do in combat or more importantly, what you can do with those Escrima sticks of his. Rocksteady are very close to making themselves a  perfect game here. I can’t wait till this game comes out…
