Batman pre-order skins will release as DLC

Available to all "down the track".

Rocksteady has confirmed to Eurogamer that the full range of Batman: Arkham City skins being divvied up between retailers as pre-order bonuses will become available to all later on as DLC.

"The offer that we're making out with retailers for gamers is, this is an early access opportunity for you," Rocksteady's marketing manager Dax Ginn told us in London yesterday. "Absolutely down the track [the skins] will be available more broadly."

Six Batman skins were detailed earlier this week, with the Caped Crusader available in a variety of flavours, from 1970s to The Dark Knight Returns. There's no word yet on what they'll cost or when they might appear as DLC.

Ginn also revealed that Rocksteady was planning another big announcement for the title at Gamescom later this month. Eurogamer will be there when they do.
