After leaks, Warner Bros has officially announced an HD version of Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate. The Armature-developed game was originally released as a handheld Metroidvania adventure for Vita and 3DS. However, a new "Deluxe Edition" with HD graphics will be coming to PS3, Xbox 360, Wii U, and PC.

The HD port will be available on April 1 for $19.99. The console versions won't feature too many new bells and whistles, however "a new map & hint system for improved navigation and objective tracking" is promised.

Check out this new trailer:

    Blackgate was originally released on 3DS/Vita. Are you talking about that or about Arkham Origins? I know of no fixes for Origins at this point. They last said that they're focusing on DLC.

      yeah, there will be no more fixes for Origins per Warner Bros.

      Fuck him, if he can't get to work on time and post a perfect news post than he should be humiliated and fired and possibly killed. String him up and let Jesus judge his incompetence before the Lord.

  No interest for a Wii U port. If DLC is going to be held up on other Batman and Wii U titles, I will be avoiding those titles for other system ports.
