Warner confirms third title in Batman: Arkham series

A third instalment in the Batman: Arkham series will be released this financial year.

The low-key confirmation comes from Warner’s CFO and chief administrative officer John Martin, who told investors last week that: We also have a strong games release this year, which will include the next release in the Batman Arkham franchise.

So all in all, we expect Warner to post another very strong year in 2013. And with a little luck, the year should be as good or maybe even a little bit better than 2012.”

VG247 adds that its sources reckon series creator Rocksteady Games is not handling this new title.

MCV reported last month that 15 domains associated with the Arkham franchise have been registered, with Batman: Arkham Universe seemingly the front runner.
