Rumor: Batman: Return To Arkham Delayed Until At Least November
Batman: Return To Arkham was supposed to be out this month, but was delayed due to quality issues. The collection, which brings Arkham Asylum and Arkham City to current-generation consoles doesn’t have a new release window.
A new report suggests that the earliest we might see it is November. Eurogamer says that it has multiple sources suggesting that the game won’t hit shelves and digital storefronts until months after its original intended release.
The port is under development by Virtuous Games, which has locations in China, Vietnam, France, Japan, and Canada. We’ve reached out to Warner Bros. for comment. We’ll update should we receive a response.

Our Take
Warner Bros. needs to ensure these games function extremely well at launch. The Arkham Knight PC debacle is still fresh on fans’ minds. Messing up a port like this would squander both potential revenue and good will.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
