New 'Batman: Arkham Knight' DLC Features Batman '89 Suit And Batmobile

Back in the late '80s, the idea of bringing a superhero to the big screen in a serious manner was basically unheard of. Most previous efforts to bring Marvel's or DC's to the screen were horrendous, but then it happened: Tim Burton released Batman, and it wasn't long before the thought of a campy, kid-friendly Dark Knight seemed like an outdated relic.

Burton's Batman '89 helped shape what the character would look like for years to come, and it's often cited as one of the most influential works of the Dark Knight's long career. While the movie itself may have aged a bit, there's no arguing the impact it had on one of DC's biggest characters outside of the comics themselves.

With Batman: Arkham Knight's latest piece of DLC, it looks like Rocksteady is paying homage to the film that helped change Batman. As part of the game's Season Pass, players will be able to download both the Batsuit and Batmobile from the 1989 film!

If you don't want to wait until August for more DLC, Batman: Arkham Knight's first story-based DLC, A Matter of Family, is set for release on July 21.
