Today a trailer was released announcing and showing off Batman Arkham Origins multiplayer.
The Invisible Predator Multiplayer Mode is 3 v 3 v 2.
The first team of 3 is 3 henchmen led by Bane.
The second team of 3 is 3 henchmen led by The Joker.
The last team is Batman and Robin.
The henchmen are no ordinary henchmen though - Joker and Bane have enlisted their Gang Elite to take down the dynamic duo - including special gadgets such as Enhanced Vision, which works like Detective Mode to see other players through walls and objects but with limited time, aswell as deadly themed weapons such as Jokers "Surprise, you're dead!" proximity mine gift boxes or the Bane crew's ultrasonic pulse that can zap enemies even through walls.
Playing as Batman and Robin is all about mastering stealth, cunning, and your environment. The heroes have all of the gadgets and equipment Batman has through the solo campaign.
After the battle has been raging for awhile, Joker and Bane become unlock-able. Each supervillain has unique movesets. Bane, for example, is a bulldozer of a man, great in melee comfrontations, who can pummel others with his fists and can soak up heavier damage from gunfire. He can even pick up an enemy and toss them as a weapon, or unleash doom with a heavy rocket-launcher. The Joker is deadlier at a distance, armed with two custom handguns - the Ace of Spades - an explosive hand cannon with a ton of splash damage, and the King of Hearts - a one-shot kill weapon that requires a more careful aim. When caught up close, Joker can give pursuers a lethal jolt with his Joy Buzzer.
Playing solo campaign with unlock as-yet-unspecified items in multiplayer mode.

Sure he'll become later DLC, but I want him right from the start.
No thanks, I have both.
