blogentry-114362-0-59563600-1401931683_thumb.jpgBatman is getting yet another new Batmobile. We recently saw teases of director Zack Snyder's take on the iconic vehicle for the upcoming movie starring the Dark Knight and Superman. The movie isn't due to hit screens until 2016, so until then, we'll have to focus on the video game world as the Bat gets a new car to appear in Batman: Arkham Knight.

 

The game is the fourth entry in the action-adventure series starring the Caped Crusader and is the first to appear on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles. The franchise kicked off on the previous generation systems with Batman: Arkham Asylum from developer Rocksteady. After sitting out of production of Batman: Arkham Origins, it's back in the driver's seat for the latest one.

 

Arkham Knight will put players directly in control of the redesigned, dune-buggy-like Batmobile that you see above. According to a preview in Game Informer, the car can transform between a standard Pursuit mode and Battle mode (as pictured) with a cannon and machine gun, which doesn't really seem "Batman'ish". It can also be remote controlled so players can swap between the Dark Knight and the vehicle to help with combat.

 

The game is scheduled for a 2015 release, but Rocksteady is promising more details about it during the E3 video game tradeshow from June 10-12. Watch a video of the latest Batmobile transforming between modes in the game.

Looks like the evolved version from Nolan's Tumbler mixed with the Lamborghini Egoista, no?

 

Personally I think the Keaton Batmobile from Batman and Batman Returns is the best; it is what got me interested in cars.

 

Regardless, can't wait to play this game!

 

P.S. What an irony I'm wearing a Batman tee as I'm typing this..

  • Is 'tiny living' really irrelevant in Singapore?

    I discussed the possibility of living in tiny houses in Singapore in an earlier blog post. But as we know, it isn't an option to begin with – no thanks, of course, to our lack of land space.  Someone also pointed out that the idea of tiny houses is "romanticised" – which, I don't deny (but hey, that's why it's a dream). While it's clear tiny houses aren't going to work out here, the concept of 'tiny living' is; not just physically but also mentally. Anyone who has lived enough years lo
