All these years...and yet not a single soul knows the beautiful voice behind this trailer. It hurts to know that I’ll probably die and Will never know the voice behind this version of auld Lang syne. If anyone ever comes across this comment, do me a favor and try to find the voice behind this song.
her name is sissel kyrkjebø u can tell its her from her songs, especially one thats called molde canticle, sorry to find you so late, hopefully its not too late
anushiee Yes they do. It would have sent so much dust up in the air, that it blocked the sun. It created a global winter. No sun = no plants = no herbivores = no carnivores. Almost every animal over 25 kg died, because there not was enough food for an animal that big. That's why we survived (mammals). After the dinosaurs died, no one ruled the land. That was the perfect opportunity for mammals to take over the world. By the way, not all dinosaurs died. Birds survived.
Everything. This trailer encapsulates it all. “Should ol acquaintance be forgot” literally almost speaking to freeze as he ascends to madness to save his dying wife. Its just art.
YEESSS!!!! I still remember that episode from the Animated series. Also to anyone who missed the Animated Series or wants to relive old childhood memories and has Amazon Prime, you can now watch the whole animated series for free.
Does an entrance such as this send chills down your spine? For the victims of this unfortunate event, felt them quite literally. You could even say that they were given quite the cold shoulder and in such an aggressive manner as well. *chuckles*
Helena Wayne This is what I was able to gather from what we know so far: The DLC takes place on New Year's Eve, Mr. Freeze stops the Humanitarian of the year awards for no given reason. (Although I would assume it would be to steal money from the rich, or to steal the award.)
Sometimes I see these comments and I am like "are these guys playing the same game as me" bugs? Glitches? Never faced one...and I know its hard to believe and the game was amazing I loved the more agresive, hot headed batman. The only thing I could say that was wrong is the multiplayer and I am not saying its bad, its just takes a long time to connect to other players(maybe its my connection) but I am looking foward for this DlC .
The only time i remember facing a bug or a glitch was around when the game first came out. It was literally broken. But after the patch i haven't really faced any bugs
I feel the same way, I haven't had a single issue except for frame rates at the beginnig and end of cutscenes which is nothing, and the multiplayer which was fixed
eggsandchips91 Good question. That is same question i wanted to ask everyone. But i would get answer "I live in other country, i didnt know it is american song".
Alex García Minoco they should keep the same team that do these trailers and animation work from WB and let them do it for the next game, but leave everything else to rocksteady.
***** I know it wasn't true to Fries' character and made Arnie look silly But a movie with that many Schwarzenegger one liners is a guaranteed ROFLCOPPTER of a night!
"Have you ever watched a flower die? Watched something that was once so beautiful, collapse, and rot from within." Super excited to see one of my favourite villains get his own DLC story, though waiting till late Aprill will be hard. Hoping they have Maureen back to voice Victor, he did such a fantastic job the first time. And Wayne Manor sounds exciting! Curious to see if Nora will actually make an appearance outside the ice, and maybe Barbara Gordon becoming Batgirl?
I think Mr. Freezes story is just so fantastic, and really sad too! I just feel so bad for him! All he wants is to save his beloved wife, and to get revenge on everyone who has wronged him or her. And he is just so FREAKING awesome, like I can't even put into words why I like him so much!
yeah but the new 52 strips away all the tragic and sympathetic parts of his character by making Nora some random woman he obsesses over instead of his actual wife.
Damn!! just wow.... just to see Mr Freeze making that entrance... It is one thing to see him maim his victims from the Animated series, but to see them full blown frozen... its no pun intended cold and chilling....
IDK if I speak for anyone else, but I want more villains featured in DLC. it seems that you guys keep highlighting the main villains two face, joker, freeze, bane, penguin, riddler, black mask, and others like them. there are so many more batman villains. I want a dlc with a huge story of one of the less heard of or less popular characters.
"Remember not to take him head on. You remember what happened last time, right?" I really hope they can captivate on that line from Arkham City somehow.
same here, but at the same time you gotta remember this is like, what a decade or so before AC? Assuming this is the first time he meets Freeze, i dont think Bats has only fought him twice(here and in AC)....at least i'd hope not lol
***** Well, i was thinking more about the way they totally changed Bane's and Batmans first encounters. In the Character Bio in AA it said Bane broke batman's back, and that he was incapacitated for months. But in AO they just ignored that… Plus after what they did with Origins, it doesn't feel like WB Montreal are the creative types…
"This is how I will always remember you: surrounded by winter, forever young, forever beautiful. Rest well, my love, the monster who took you from me will soon learn that revenge is a dish... best served cold."
***** I heard that is a different animation style unfortunately. I'm kinda assuming it's going to be 2D cartoon- styled. Nevertheless, I think it'll be a cool movie.
I can't believe some people are actually hoping for Robin to appear in this DLC. Seriously? Arkham Origins takes place in Batman's SECOND year of crime fighting. Do any of you use your brains?
The only way I see Robin is if there's a time skip between the main story and the DLC. Like, this story takes place not the New Years after Batman beats Joker, but the year after. Or longer. There's a better chance for Batgirl, if anything.
bestinthe_world2 The multiplayer isn't canon to the story. The only reason Robin is in the multiplayer, is so the Joker and Bane gangs don't totally dominate the hero team.
I wonder, since Mark Hamill actually provided the voice of Ferris Boyle as well as Joker's in TAS, perhaps WB Montreal asked him to supply the voice for Boyle?
They say it comes out today in the trailer, I went on playstation store and seen the pre-order cold, cold heart, I went on it and it says it comes out tommorow, they're messing around with the dates!
Is it really broken though? It is very playable in my opinion, it was long since I last encountered a bug. Look at Battlefield 4 if you want to see "broken".
If there was an award for "Most Undeserved Hate" this game would win, hands down. The only legitimate, objective gripe that I've had has been a bug or two that were easily rectified. Story, and character designs were way better in this game than Arkham City (I adore that game, but its story was, essentially, a glorified fetch quest). Boss fights were consistently better, with the Deathstroke fight being my all time favorite in the series (that's right, I'd take that one over Mr Freeze). Hell, the choreography and animation in that fight may be my favorite of all time. And honestly, I liked that they decided not to make Batman seem like he was in control of every situation, and I liked that they made Bruce Wayne a lot more unsure of himself. I wish there were more enemy types (although I really liked the martial artist enemy). Arkham City, however, just felt more like a true Batman experience (maybe because Batman had the comic-book design). Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill will always be the definitive voices of their respective characters, but Troy Baker did an outstanding job taking over so soon. RCS, while flat at some points, nailed the "young man with a trust fund and too much anger" version of Bruce Wayne.
***** 1st paragraph: At WHAT point was the game the same plot (oh wait, it's the same Batman/Joker plot that's in EVERY one of the cartoons)? Did AA or AC attempt to go into the depth of what makes the Batman/Joker relationship? Did Bane ever figure out Batman's identity in Arkham Asylum? The Devs always said that Black Mask was chosen to represent Batman's transition from the "regular" crime lords to the quirky supervillains, that Batman is known for fighting, and it was true. The minute the Joker was revealed, the whole nature of the game changed. It went from surviving the assassins to taking down a criminal the likes of which Batman had never seen before. 2nd paragraph: I don't recall Shiva's fight being a "reskin" of a particular fight. And in case you didn't, (lol, who am I kidding, you DIDN'T) read any of the pre-release interviews, the devs said that each fight was a test of a particular style of gameplay. As for Deathstroke, while I agree that there could've been another assassin to start off, it was NOT a disgrace. And your next sentence shows me that you didn't play the game all the way through. While he may have gotten only a side glance near the end, the end-credits scene adds a MASSIVE amount of speculation. Would he get his own video game series? Could he have a bigger role in RockSteady's true sequel? 3rd Paragraph: As for the city, NO SHIT SHERLOCK! You mean North Gotham looks the same, all around, FIVE YEARS BEFORE Arkham City? BEFORE those particular villains are locked in there together? You don't say! In case you didn't remember, Arkham City wasn't even a thought in this game, so your argument lost the credibility that it never had. There's also this thing called a BIG-ASS WINTER STORM inbound, with both the police and the emergency services telling all citizens to remain in their homes. That, coupled with the 8 most dangerous criminals the GCPD has ever encountered running around the streets, AND the Batman (who the police don't trust, and whose existence is still doubted) is out there. I think that's a pretty good reason to stay indoors. As for the prisoner thing, Gotham, in this game, is called the 2nd most dangerous city in the US, so no shit there are lots of criminals in the street.
Well it's not really his second year, it's close to it. It could even be the last month of his first year. Or a month before his third year, doesn't have to be exactly 2nd year. Could even be a third year.
Well not really, remember the opening cutscene where batman was watching an interview he did with Vickie vale? She said he's been back for almost two years now.
They can make the prettiest cutscenes they want but what matters is the gameplay. Aliens Colonial Marines comes to mind.... Get ready to be disappointed.
Travis Mackie People should wait to see gameplay before they rush to buy it. People in the comments are already SO HYPED. Trying to save them from a burn here.
Travis Mackie But this is DLC to an otherwise disappointing game that's been out for a while now. We're not completely in the dark because we know how the game is going to play. Only difference would be the story and probably added gadgets that are likely not going to be that game changing.
BatmanAndHisPuppies See I don't get it- I finished the game start-to-finish with no glitches THREE TIMES, yet I keep hearing "Ugh, I can't finish the game because a cutscene won't play" or "Bane's hitbox keeps disappearing- I can't use my takedown on him" or shit like that. The only glitch I've had is that the SFX for his cape opening when you glide's gone, but that's it. Annoying as shit, but I can still play the game. Hope this ain't like Sonic '06, where the bugs only seem to affect people after people have started complaining about them.
The_Bitter®™ godofcrap42 Im not even playing on PC. It's on the PS3 they just keep telling you to erase game data and re-download. done it over 3 times and it still freezes so yeah..I really don't know.
I hope my game doesn't freeze.
I see what you did there lol
Boooooo
😐
All these years...and yet not a single soul knows the beautiful voice behind this trailer. It hurts to know that I’ll probably die and Will never know the voice behind this version of auld Lang syne. If anyone ever comes across this comment, do me a favor and try to find the voice behind this song.
I was thinking the same.
Her voice is beautiful.
her name is sissel kyrkjebø
u can tell its her from her songs, especially one thats called molde canticle, sorry to find you so late, hopefully its not too late
"What killed the dinosaurs?"
"The ice age!"
i dont believe the dinosaurs were killed by an ice age :)
Eric Lukacs Yeah! Don't scientists believe that the dinosaurs were killed by a giant asteroid that blocked out the sun? :S
anushiee Yes they do. It would have sent so much dust up in the air, that it blocked the sun. It created a global winter. No sun = no plants = no herbivores = no carnivores. Almost every animal over 25 kg died, because there not was enough food for an animal that big. That's why we survived (mammals). After the dinosaurs died, no one ruled the land. That was the perfect opportunity for mammals to take over the world. By the way, not all dinosaurs died. Birds survived.
Joseph Favela "ALWAYS WINTERIZE YOUR PIPES "
ThePrehistoricMaster Is that not the combined theory and not the asteroid theory by itself?
2021 and still this gives me the chills
Titled Cold Cold Heart? Icy Explosions? Robotic Suit and Heavy Breathing?
Looks like they're making a Two-Face origin story.
Damn! My money was on Clayface :/
I thought it was an Iceman origin story!
I was going for Darth Vader
Elu Arkham I guess I was the only one thinking Buzz Lightyear then
Guys, guys, it's clearly Quincy Sharp! Come on!
Man I wish they had a full track for the song used in this teaser. It's so good.
I've wanted to find a full version of it for years now. It's one of the best renditions I've heard.
I'm getting chills, I'm so looking forward to this.
Kind of want to see similar stories for characters like Dent and Dr. Crane.
I'm losing control.
Giovanni Magnus you should see a doctor.
lol getting chills.......I see what you did there
It's so beautiful...
If only niko was here and kate
Yes. It would move me to tears if I still had tears to shed.
Everything. This trailer encapsulates it all. “Should ol acquaintance be forgot” literally almost speaking to freeze as he ascends to madness to save his dying wife. Its just art.
Allow me to break the ice.
Alright everyone, chill.
Hahaha! Never forget that movie ^^
Get out your copy of Arkham Origins, and lets kick some ICE!
"What killed the dinosaurs" The ICE AGE!!
"Stay cool, Bird Boy!"
"Cool party!"
Revenge is a dish best served cold.
The Iceman Cometh
Quite the trailer. It would move me to tears...if I still had tears to shed.
Nate2764 Ah a TAS Quoter, I like you
Heart of Ice?! Fuck you take my money!!!
lol Exactly what I thought too. I want to go re-watch that episode now.
al least buy me dinner first
YEESSS!!!! I still remember that episode from the Animated series. Also to anyone who missed the Animated Series or wants to relive old childhood memories and has Amazon Prime, you can now watch the whole animated series for free.
Does an entrance such as this send chills down your spine? For the victims of this unfortunate event, felt them quite literally. You could even say that they were given quite the cold shoulder and in such an aggressive manner as well. *chuckles*
Lol u put fries, but any way are u going after him Bruce
Robin the best sidekck F-r-i-e-s is the correct spelling of Mr. Freeze's last name. :)
Helena Wayne What are you trying to say with that statement, my friend? :)
Helena Wayne I agree, the DLC is going to be awesome. :)
Helena Wayne This is what I was able to gather from what we know so far: The DLC takes place on New Year's Eve, Mr. Freeze stops the Humanitarian of the year awards for no given reason. (Although I would assume it would be to steal money from the rich, or to steal the award.)
This is going to be an awesome DLC! Thank god we see a bit more of Bruce like normal.
Sometimes I see these comments and I am like "are these guys playing the same game as me" bugs? Glitches? Never faced one...and I know its hard to believe and the game was amazing I loved the more agresive, hot headed batman. The only thing I could say that was wrong is the multiplayer and I am not saying its bad, its just takes a long time to connect to other players(maybe its my connection) but I am looking foward for this DlC .
The only time i remember facing a bug or a glitch was around when the game first came out. It was literally broken. But after the patch i haven't really faced any bugs
Lucky I had passed the whole game riddles and all side missions and did all the modes and my save file got corrupted so its all gone.
orochi52 dam man that sucks, that happened to me but with Hitman Absolution, Just in case Ill back up my save file.
I feel the same way, I haven't had a single issue except for frame rates at the beginnig and end of cutscenes which is nothing, and the multiplayer which was fixed
Name of song is Auld Lang Syne, now stop everyone asking for name of song.
Thums up this comment and satisfy yourself.
So you know the name or the person who specifically sung this song?
How do people not know the name of this song!? Have they never been to a new years party?
eggsandchips91 Good question. That is same question i wanted to ask everyone. But i would get answer "I live in other country, i didnt know it is american song".
***** It's a Scottish song I believe. It's sung all over the world
eggsandchips91 I think Freeze's wife is singing Auld Lang Syne, possibly gave voice in DLC.
Good grief these people know how to make good trailers.
The only thing they know how to make xD
Alex García Minoco they should keep the same team that do these trailers and animation work from WB and let them do it for the next game, but leave everything else to rocksteady.
Alex García Minoco well that and boss fights
Alex García Minoco Arkham Origins was a great game. I don't know what you're talking about.
PoppymeltHQ yeah it was. some people didint like it for some reason
Well that escalated quickly...
"What killed the dinosaurs?! The Ice Age!"
Arnold should voice Fries again that shit was non stop lulz!
Let's kick some iccccccce
"Take two of these... and call me in the morning."
Vinny Casella
In a Funny or Die video and nothing Batman related.
***** I know it wasn't true to Fries' character and made Arnie look silly But a movie with that many Schwarzenegger one liners is a guaranteed ROFLCOPPTER of a night!
This DLC can cause an ICE AGE of gaming!
BOOOOOOOOOO!
SethMtv
Wanna have a COOL kick in your face?
I have waited a long time just for this DLC. Feels like forever.
Bring back Mark Hamill as Ferris Boyle!
"Have you ever watched a flower die? Watched something that was once so beautiful, collapse, and rot from within."
Super excited to see one of my favourite villains get his own DLC story, though waiting till late Aprill will be hard. Hoping they have Maureen back to voice Victor, he did such a fantastic job the first time. And Wayne Manor sounds exciting! Curious to see if Nora will actually make an appearance outside the ice, and maybe Barbara Gordon becoming Batgirl?
this trailer for dlc is better than most trailers for actual video games.
Holy Chills....till this day!!!
I think Mr. Freezes story is just so fantastic, and really sad too! I just feel so bad for him! All he wants is to save his beloved wife, and to get revenge on everyone who has wronged him or her. And he is just so FREAKING awesome, like I can't even put into words why I like him so much!
New 52 managed to ruin it, but he's definitely one of my favorite villains before that
yeah but the new 52 strips away all the tragic and sympathetic parts of his character by making Nora some random woman he obsesses over instead of his actual wife.
pdragon619 And to think Night of Owls was so cool until that part. But Batman beating the shit out of Freeze was pretty great.
Alright everyone, CHILL!!
Idk what it is, but the trailer gives me chills
Definitely the music.
Freeze is by far my favorite villain.
"Hey can you guys fix the bugs in this game before you start giving us DLC?"
"No."
The game works fine for me on the 360.
Near New Years of 2023, and always great to see this.
This game and DLC will be close to 10 years old, and still a gem.
Ever time the new year hits, I always think about this trailer
When Freeze froze the guy in the air.
that was a good one xD
Damn!! just wow.... just to see Mr Freeze making that entrance... It is one thing to see him maim his victims from the Animated series, but to see them full blown frozen... its no pun intended cold and chilling....
Oscar Wilde once said "a man cannot be too careful in the choice of his enemies." This trailer personifies that quote.
April : The Batman Month!!
2nd April : Arkham Origins Blackgate
22nd April : Cold, Cold Heart
JUST WOW!
Was anyone else expecting the camera to show Arnold Schwarzenegger at the end with one of his 'Tonight's forecast - a Freeze is coming' lines?
Almost every Teaser Trailers have some kickass lines at end of the video, but Batman Arkham's Teaser Trailers are different.
i wishu never reminded me of that piece of shit movie
IDK if I speak for anyone else, but I want more villains featured in DLC. it seems that you guys keep highlighting the main villains two face, joker, freeze, bane, penguin, riddler, black mask, and others like them. there are so many more batman villains. I want a dlc with a huge story of one of the less heard of or less popular characters.
I had dream about this... Freaky
For everyone wondering, think of this like a more mature version of the Mr. Freeze episode from The Animated Series.
"Death is cold Batman."
"FREEZE IN HELL BATMAN !"
freeze while entering the ceremony: "that's a lovely, lovely voice"
"Remember not to take him head on. You remember what happened last time, right?" I really hope they can captivate on that line from Arkham City somehow.
same here, but at the same time you gotta remember this is like, what a decade or so before AC? Assuming this is the first time he meets Freeze, i dont think Bats has only fought him twice(here and in AC)....at least i'd hope not lol
Somehow, i don't think so.
Ty D agreed. it would be stupid to assume that the "last time" Oracle was referring to was the first time they ever meet
***** Well, i was thinking more about the way they totally changed Bane's and Batmans first encounters. In the Character Bio in AA it said Bane broke batman's back, and that he was incapacitated for months. But in AO they just ignored that… Plus after what they did with Origins, it doesn't feel like WB Montreal are the creative types…
One of my favourite trailers of all time
Wait cold, cold heart was not the song that Joker sing on the credits?
Yeah. That was on purpose.
Only way to play this DLC now is by getting it on Steam. I'm currently playing on my Steam Deck. Such a good DLC.
Who is singing that version of the new years song?
Seriously hoping this DLC will kick ice.
If anyone knows the name of vocalists, please tell us!! I searched it for whole day after i saw this video
holy shit amazing beautiful trailer but really 3 months away?
2 months.
2 months but technically 1 month and 27 days
TheDonovan137 ...I'm out.
There's only like 3 days left in February...so almost 2 months since it's end of April.
Let them finish their final touches to make this DLC AWESOME!!
WAT KEELED THA DINESORES. THE EYCE AGE
haha I remeber that
I would have said a meteor, but then Pacific Rim said it was aliens. I think Freeze was just desperate for a witty line or something
YOU'RA NAT SENDING ME TO THA COOLA
Hey Freeze! The heat is on!
Cool down bird boy
"This is how I will always remember you: surrounded by winter, forever young, forever beautiful. Rest well, my love, the monster who took you from me will soon learn that revenge is a dish... best served cold."
Tonight's forecast...A Freeze is coming...
What killed the dinosaurs? The Ice Age!
Qbb Rock! You're not sending me to the cooler...xD
Delon Luu xD
All these ice puns have left me cold.
Dude, let it go.
FlamingSkullComics I made one joke. Relax.
Will this have the fight with Mr Freeze that Oracle mentioned when Batman fought Mr Freeze in Arkham City?
Arnold should voice Mr.Freeze :p
what killed the dinosaurs ? THE ICE AGE !!!
haha "everybody!....chill"....fuckin awesome lines :P
The Ice Man Cometh!
Screw you haters, I think WBGM done and excellent job making this game and would be more than happy to purchase this awesome looking DLC!
This game and it's DLC were criminally underrated
Okay, now we have a date.
I imagine Freeze saying "Everybody CHILL da faq out!"
hahaha
Plot Twist: Joker is going to be the actual main boss.....again!
Cool story bro.
TheSpidersider
I know, right? I was bored of the "default avatar", hence the picture.
To add, Gotham City seems to have more of a "Batman Begins" kind of look to it.
lets kick some ICE!!
First DLC I ever bought. Ahh, memories.
One day someone needs to turn these games into full CGI movies. And I don't mean the cutscenes.
happening already look up assault on arkham
***** I heard that is a different animation style unfortunately. I'm kinda assuming it's going to be 2D cartoon- styled. Nevertheless, I think it'll be a cool movie.
The song to this trailer brings out the feels
Is Freeze still Maurice Lamarche? He was perfect in Arkham City.
I think I know where this story is going. It seems a Lot like the episode in Batman Animated series that introduced Mr Freeze.
Indeed. Humanitarian Award and Boyle (or at least I assume it is) frozen in place at the legs while Mr. Freeze approaches.
I can't believe some people are actually hoping for Robin to appear in this DLC. Seriously? Arkham Origins takes place in Batman's SECOND year of crime fighting. Do any of you use your brains?
The only way I see Robin is if there's a time skip between the main story and the DLC. Like, this story takes place not the New Years after Batman beats Joker, but the year after. Or longer.
There's a better chance for Batgirl, if anything.
So why is Robin in the multiplayer then?
multiplayer doesn't follow any specific timeline as such...coz u see Bane is alright,Robin is in the multiplayer e.t.c
bestinthe_world2 The multiplayer isn't canon to the story. The only reason Robin is in the multiplayer, is so the Joker and Bane gangs don't totally dominate the hero team.
I wonder, since Mark Hamill actually provided the voice of Ferris Boyle as well as Joker's in TAS, perhaps WB Montreal asked him to supply the voice for Boyle?
"Cool party!"
They say it comes out today in the trailer, I went on playstation store and seen the pre-order cold, cold heart, I went on it and it says it comes out tommorow, they're messing around with the dates!
So dark , yet so beautiful.
Wonder if hes more bulker in his suit or just more terrifying
***** okay then its a test suit... okay then
Finally! A real DLC
MR FREEZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This trailer is sweet, but I won't be purchasing this DLC. As bad as Arkham Origins was, I'd be a fool if I gave WB Montreal more of my money.
i got the season pass for ten euros instead of twenty becouse of gamestop having an error they sold them cheap the first day XD
I have already the season pass, only reason I'm getting this.
Is it really broken though? It is very playable in my opinion, it was long since I last encountered a bug. Look at Battlefield 4 if you want to see "broken".
"As bad as arkham origins was" are you sick in the head? origins had the best story out of all 3 games
CruuushaL and boss fights
Who is the singer?
What is that music, it's awesome
Auld lang syne
All I saw was the logo, and my heart stopped.
I thought this video was an Arkham 3 reveal until I read the title.
Just 1 month to wait i can't bear the shame
The music in this trailer's pretty chilling.
If there was an award for "Most Undeserved Hate" this game would win, hands down. The only legitimate, objective gripe that I've had has been a bug or two that were easily rectified. Story, and character designs were way better in this game than Arkham City (I adore that game, but its story was, essentially, a glorified fetch quest).

I agree with everything you said. Arkham Origins is my favourite Arkham game, maybe even one of my favourite games hands down.
*****
1st paragraph: At WHAT point was the game the same plot (oh wait, it's the same Batman/Joker plot that's in EVERY one of the cartoons)? Did AA or AC attempt to go into the depth of what makes the Batman/Joker relationship? Did Bane ever figure out Batman's identity in Arkham Asylum? The Devs always said that Black Mask was chosen to represent Batman's transition from the "regular" crime lords to the quirky supervillains, that Batman is known for fighting, and it was true.

Pls What is the name of this Music ?
if u guys did not see the symbol when the is ice freezes at the end of the video it shows BATMANS symbol in the ice.
Needs more robin BUT
'What killed the Dinosaurs? THE ICE AGE!!'
this trailer is quite....chilling
I knew it! YES!!!!! This looks amazing.
YaneShawTV no i was
Mr Freeze, Heart of Ice (Batman TAS)
Please tell me why Robin would appear in this DLC when Batman is only in his SECOND year of crime fighting? Do you people ever use your brains.
Well it's not really his second year, it's close to it. It could even be the last month of his first year. Or a month before his third year, doesn't have to be exactly 2nd year. Could even be a third year.
XxFuelForLifexX Arkham Origins takes place exactly 2 years into his career, and like HQR, I'm thinking this will probably take place afterwards.
Well not really, remember the opening cutscene where batman was watching an interview he did with Vickie vale? She said he's been back for almost two years now.
Third.
He's in his third year of crime fighting.
Travis Mackie Not true, the writer of the arkham games in a dozen of interviews says "We'd like to think he's in his second year of fighting"
This teaser gives me goosebumps every time, i know what im replaying this new years.
Hope they do dlc for Ra's, Talia or Two Face sometime.
Damn...I wasn't hoping he'll come back in action. Here we go again
They can make the prettiest cutscenes they want but what matters is the gameplay.
Aliens Colonial Marines comes to mind....
Get ready to be disappointed.
*****
Exactly.
Oooooooooor just wait until the damn thing comes out to say if it's good or bad... (in Bane's voice) So YOU wait.

People should wait to see gameplay before they rush to buy it. People in the comments are already SO HYPED. Trying to save them from a burn here.
They should also wait for gameplay before calling it a disappointment. It works both ways man.
Travis Mackie But this is DLC to an otherwise disappointing game that's been out for a while now. We're not completely in the dark because we know how the game is going to play. Only difference would be the story and probably added gadgets that are likely not going to be that game changing.
What's the song in the trailer?
This looks like the trailer of the best DC animated ever done. Definitely getting this DLC :)
That's a good point, I'd like to see a full length film animated like this by DC
0:32 you can see glimpse of Mr Freeze
I am not spending money on DLC when they refuse to fix the game breaking glitches first.
The_Bitter®™ I can't finish the main game lol. Game keeps freezing and they cant do shit about it. pathetic.

Yeah, they're being real dicks about it. I would hazard a guess and say that it's an issue on the publishing side rather than the devs themselves.
BatmanAndHisPuppies See I don't get it- I finished the game start-to-finish with no glitches THREE TIMES, yet I keep hearing "Ugh, I can't finish the game because a cutscene won't play" or "Bane's hitbox keeps disappearing- I can't use my takedown on him" or shit like that. The only glitch I've had is that the SFX for his cape opening when you glide's gone, but that's it. Annoying as shit, but I can still play the game.
Hope this ain't like Sonic '06, where the bugs only seem to affect people after people have started complaining about them.
The_Bitter®™ godofcrap42 Im not even playing on PC. It's on the PS3 they just keep telling you to erase game data and re-download. done it over 3 times and it still freezes so yeah..I really don't know.
