Step into the
shadows of Gotham City's perilous criminal underworld as
DC Comics' legendary Dark Knight in the Batman
Begins™ video game. Slated for release day and date
with the Warner Bros. Pictures film, Batman Begins
challenges players to use fear as their ultimate weapon.
The game explores
the origins of the Batman legend and the Dark Knight's
emergence as a force for good in Gotham. Gamers will play
as both Bruce Wayne and his alter-ego, Batman, hunting
evil-doers from the shadows, using strength, intellect
and an array of high tech gadgets to fight the sinister
forces that threaten the city, including classic villains
Scarecrow, Ra's Al Ghul and Carmine Falcone.
Turning traditional
stealth-based gameplay on its ear - by allowing gamers to
play the hunter, rather than the hunted - Batman Begins
delivers the Batman universe as never before. Stalking
criminals from the shadows, gamers will discover new ways
to paralyze thugs with fear before engaging in
hand-to-hand combat, or interrogating them.
From the halls of
Arkham Asylum and the alleys of Gotham City to an ancient
monastery high in the Himalayas, Batman Begins the video
game delivers a thrilling interactive companion to
Christopher Nolan's reinvention of the Dark Knight in
Batman Begins.
