Batman fans are in for a treat as WB Games confirms the introduction of Robert Pattinson’s Batman suit into the world of “Batman: Arkham Knight.” This addition, coming as a free skin, marks a crossover between the latest cinematic depiction of the Dark Knight and one of the most acclaimed games in the Batman franchise.
The path to integrating Pattinson’s suit into “Batman: Arkham Knight” has been somewhat unusual. Initially, the suit appeared unexpectedly on the Epic Games Store as a silent update for “Batman: Arkham Knight,” developed by Rocksteady Studios. This surprise addition was particularly notable given that the game, released eight years ago, had not seen significant new content in years.
The intrigue deepened when Rocksteady swiftly removed the Pattinson suit from the game, leaving players puzzled about the reasons behind its sudden appearance and subsequent disappearance. This move sparked speculation and curiosity among the game’s fanbase.

The mystery was partially resolved with the announcement that the Nintendo Switch’s “Batman: Arkham Trilogy” will be the first to feature Pattinson’s suit, coinciding with the collection’s release on December 1. This reveal was made through a new trailer for the Arkham Trilogy, generating excitement among Switch owners and Batman enthusiasts.
For players on other platforms, the suit will be available in “Batman: Arkham Knight” at a yet-to-be-announced later date. This rollout strategy ensures that fans across various platforms will eventually get the chance to experience Gotham City through the lens of Pattinson’s Dark Knight.
