Warner Bros. has recently sent out an official update on the international release dates of Batman: Arkham City. Unfortunately for those who were looking forward to a Wii U launch window, these are only for the game's PS3, Xbox 360, and PC versions.

The home console versions (again, PS3 and Xbox 360 only) will be out in the U.S. on October 18th. Australia will be getting them a day later, on October 19th. Gamers in Europe will have to wait until October 21st to finally get their hands on the Rocksteady-developed action-adventure title.

Warner Bros. has recently debunked rumors of a downloadable demo for the game, but those who happen to be in the Bristol, UK, area can get a chance to play it during Sony's PlayStation Access event from September 29th until October 1st.

The announcement brings some sad news to PC gamers, however. Batman: Arkham City won't be arriving on the PC platform until sometime in November. Neither Warner Bros. nor Rocksteady have explained the reason behind the delay.

And again, PC gamers get just a little less love.

i hope this gets leaked and no1 buys it.

if making the game into malware was not bad enough with GFWL and securom, now we dont even get the game in the same month. what a way to thank the people who moved the most units of AA and had the most word of mouth/forum/social media free advertising.

now if they are removing GFWL and securom i guess it would be ok but they are most likely not doing it since they listed GFWL as a feature: as if people would give more money to make their computers not function and to have activation instead of just installing then go.

Just recently, I traded in my Batman Arkham Asylum which came with the PS3 Slim when it launched back in 2009!

I brought it to GameStop, the guy tried to scan it but it doesn't have a BarCode/UPC because it came as a package with my PS3. So he looked it up on their system and accidentally selected Batman Arkham City! Guess how much I got for it? $38 bucks! lol.

The game isn't even out yet, but I was able to trade it in for 40 bucks lol. It would have normally came out to $30, but there was a promotion going on at the time.
