Amazon UK has posted the special limited edition of Batman: Arkham Knight, and it seems to come with quite a spoiler in the package.
First off, the bundle comes with a steelbook case, an art book, a copy of the Batman: Arkham Knight comic, and a nice little Batman statue. In-game, you will also be getting some special edition character skins. The whole package is available for £ 79.99.
The statue depicts Bruce in fine form, wearing his Iron Man like armored Batsuit, and seemingly towering over Gotham City.
Spoilers follow below.
Now here’s the interesting part. The inscription on the statue, as confirmed by PCGamer, has the words “From a Grateful City in Memory of the Gotham Knight” The wording on that inscription makes it pretty clear Bruce dies.
The question is, does Bruce die at the end of the game, or is this something that happens mid-game and becomes a major plot point? Is it a situation, like PCGamer outlines, where Arkham Knight takes over Batman’s role Jean Paul-Valley style?
In any case, the Amazon UK listing has edited this out, indicating even more strongly that this is a huge spoiler for the game. How would you like this to play out? Share your thoughts with us in the comments.
Batman: Arkham Knight will be released on Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, on June 2, 2015.
