Games">Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment</a>. Based on the <a href="/wiki/DC_Comics" title="DC Comics">DC Comics</a> superhero <a href="/wiki/Batman" title="Batman">Batman</a>, it is the sequel to the 2009 video game <i><a href="/wiki/Batman:_Arkham_Asylum" title="Batman: Arkham Asylum">Batman: Arkham Asylum</a></i> and the second installment in the <i><a href="/wiki/Batman:_Arkham" title="Batman: Arkham">Batman: Arkham</a></i> series. Written by veteran <i>Batman</i> writer <a href="/wiki/Paul_Dini" title="Paul Dini">Paul Dini</a> with Paul Crocker and <a href="/wiki/Sefton_Hill" class="mw-redirect" title="Sefton Hill">Sefton Hill</a>, <i>Arkham City</i> was inspired by the long-running comic book <a href="/wiki/Mythos" class="mw-redirect" title="Mythos">mythos</a>. In the game's main storyline, Bruce Wayne is incarcerated in Arkham City, a super-prison enclosing the decaying urban slums of <a href="/wiki/Gotham_City" title="Gotham City">Gotham City</a>. He dons his alter ego, Batman, and goes on a mission to uncover the secret behind a sinister scheme orchestrated by the facility's warden, <a href="/wiki/Hugo_Strange" title="Hugo Strange">Hugo Strange</a>. </p><p>The game is presented from the <a href="/wiki/Virtual_camera#third-person_view" class="mw-redirect" title="Virtual camera">third-person perspective</a> with a primary focus on Batman's combat and stealth abilities, detective skills, and gadgets that can be used in both combat and exploration. Batman can freely move around the Arkham City prison, interacting with characters and undertaking missions, and unlocking new areas by progressing through the main story or obtaining new equipment. The player is able to complete side missions away from the main story to unlock additional content and collectible items. Batman's ally <a href="/wiki/Catwoman" title="Catwoman">Catwoman</a> is another playable character, featuring her own story campaign that runs parallel to the game's main plot. </p><p>Rocksteady conceived ideas for a sequel while developing <i>Arkham Asylum</i>, commencing serious development of <i>Arkham City</i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'</span>s story in February 2009. The layout of Arkham City has a virtual footprint five times that of <i>Arkham Asylum</i>, and the city design was modified to accommodate Batman's ability to swoop and glide. Over a year and $10 million were spent on the game's marketing campaign, and its release was accompanied by two music albums; one containing the game's score, and the other featuring 11 original songs inspired by the game from various mainstream artists. </p><p><i>Arkham City</i> was released worldwide for the <a href="/wiki/PlayStation_3" title="PlayStation 3">PlayStation 3</a> and <a href="/wiki/Xbox_360" title="Xbox 360">Xbox 360</a> video game consoles in October 2011, followed by a <a href="/wiki/Microsoft_Windows" title="Microsoft Windows">Microsoft Windows</a> version a month later. The game received critical acclaim, particularly for its narrative, characters, world design, soundtrack, and Batman's combat and navigation abilities. It was tied with <i><a href="/wiki/The_Elder_Scrolls_V:_Skyrim" title="The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim">The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim</a></i> for the highest-rated video game of 2011 according to review aggregator <a href="/wiki/Metacritic" title="Metacritic">Metacritic</a>, and was the recipient of several awards from media outlets, including Game of the Year, Best Action Game, Best Action Adventure Game, Best Adventure Game, and Best Original Score. Like its predecessor, it is considered one of the <a href="/wiki/List_of_video_games_considered_the_best" title="List of video games considered the best">greatest video games ever made</a>. The game has sold over 12.5 million units and generated over $600 million in revenue. </p><p>A spin-off <a href="/wiki/Mobile_game" title="Mobile game">mobile game</a>, <i><a href="/wiki/Batman:_Arkham_City_Lockdown" title="Batman: Arkham City Lockdown">Batman: Arkham City Lockdown</a></i>, was released in December. <i>Arkham City</i> received a "<a href="/wiki/List_of_Game_of_the_Year_awards" title="List of Game of the Year awards">Game of the Year</a> Edition" in May 2012. <a href="/wiki/Wii_U" title="Wii U">Wii U</a> and <a href="/wiki/MacOS" title="MacOS">OS X</a> versions of the game were released in November and December 2012, respectively; and a remastered version for the <a href="/wiki/PlayStation_4" title="PlayStation 4">PlayStation 4</a> and <a href="/wiki/Xbox_One" title="Xbox One">Xbox One</a> in October 2016.
