You're good for a couple more remasters, right? Our friends at Eurogamer.net have received word that a Batman: Arkham Collection is about to be announced for the PlayStation 4, packing remasters of both Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City. The package will apparently be available for pre-order from tomorrow, which would suggest that it'll be announced imminently.
Apparently the compilation will include all of the subsequent expansion packs from both games, as well as upgraded visuals – presumably the PlayStation 3 classics will run at 60 frames-per-second in 1080p on Sony's hot new hardware. The bundle's allegedly due out on 10th June which is a Friday, but judging by the leak's reference to Games Master magazine, this information is probably coming out of the UK, where games generally do release right before the weekend.
Who's up for one more "HD" collection, then?

Awesome. Just the Mass Effect trilogy now.
@adf86 And BioShock still to be announced! Surely we're done, then?
I loved both of these games and would certainly consider buying but I do have both on both my PS3 and XB360 - thanks in part to GOTY editions which included all the content...
There are still a few games I would consider - like Mass Effect Trilogy, the Bioshock trilogy, Resistance trilogy - even a Dead Space trilogy (or at least just the first 2 anyway).
Obviously I would prefer new games, new IP's etc and generally know that these 'remasters' are not aimed at the casual 'fan' of these - but the more hardcore fan and those new to these for whatever reason (too young last gen? owned a Wii or WiiU instead?).
Dunno, d€p€nds...
But the Mass Effect Trilogy would be a sure buy...
No Origins or Blackgate though... I guess I'll pass.
@get2sammyb Also seems a bit strange that Origins is missing as well.
I'll defo be picking this up. Shame there is no origins though.
Are these Batman Remastered collection gonna still have 3d capability...Arkham Asylum and City were both in 3d on the ps3...
Where's my Skate Trilogy collection?
Think I'll pass. As much as I love Asylum & City, I've played them to death. Would love a mass effect trilogy though, as I never played any of them. Be nice to see what the hype is about.
Awesomeness!
@belmont Origins and Blackgate were not made by Rocksteady and in truth weren't great anyway! If they were included, that would really bring down the quality of the bundle....
...I'll probably buy.
@BAMozzy I didn't know that about Rocksteady... But I enjoyed Origins and Blackgate almost equally to Asylum and City. Surely the gameplay has become repetitive and somewhat boring but the setting and story were better. I specifically liked the flow of story in Origins and the multiple paths you could take in Blackgate.
I never beat City and loved Asylum. Im down.
All the best things start with Rock;
Rocksteady
Rockstar
Rocket League
Rocky
Rock n Roll
Rocket Engines
Rocky 4
Rock Climbing
Rock Salt
Rock Cakes
Rocking Horse
Yeah I will take the remaster.
Never played these two so I'm excited to try 'em. Are either Origins or Knight worth playing?
I'm am in. I haven't played Asylum since it came out so I would love to revisit it. City was one of my favorite last gen games and it'll be great to play it with all dlc attached.
Ehh, I've already got Asylum and City. I just need Origins and Knight. I guess it would be fine for anyone who's never played them, but I don't think Asylum and City are hard to come by if you have a previous system.
@get2sammyb not done until bioshock collection, me trilogy, and an elder scrolls collection (or just skyrim) is sitting on my shelf. Then I can safely say I'm content.
@Neolit they are, arkham knight is packed with references towards origins and blackgate. They aren't fond of origins and blackgate though.
Will definitely buy this
Yes I have been wanting this. After the Uncharted Series this was the other series I really wanted remastered for the PS4.
huh. what a coincidence. I was talking about Batman on PureXbox. (o_O )
Anyways, I'm going to avoid these games like the plague.
Where's our Final Fantasy XIII Trilogy? (T-T )
Went to see Batman V Superman last week (think I'm one of the few that loved it..) so feeling like I could get into a good Batman game.Unfortunately I have played these and without Origins or Blackgate which I have yet to experience I don't see the point.Shame.ah well I'm sure Lego Batman v Superman will be announced next..
@EXP haven't played origins, but knight is worth playing. Not until you play the other two, though.
@get2sammyb
You should be ashamed of yourself. No mention of Shenmue Collection?
Not interested because I've already beaten them, but these games are definitely worth playing for anyone that missed out on them.
@sinalefa Haha, I guess I'd see that as a different thing these days. Not like it'd be a PS3 port. But you're quite right, Shenmue HD is the most important of all.
How about new games instead of everyone churning out remasters? Its not as if the Arkham games were locked to one system last gen so lots of people may have missed out.
PS Now should really take care of people wanting to go back to last gen games.
After witnessing what Insomniac has been able to do in reinventing Ratchet for the ps4, I would much rather these games get complete make overs, not just better resolution etc. Either way I don't think I would bite on this particular, although I could see it landing on the NX, I have a feeling that console is going to be littered with ports of titles that were previously only on X1 and ps4.
@get2sammyb Sammy, Sammy, Sammy, why didn't you tell us about your wonderful performing skills? Digging through the vaults of youtube turned up quite a gem, I must say I am feeling a little jealousy at the moment, bahahaha
@get2sammyb I honestly don't see why a Shenmue collection won't come out (unless for some reason MS has a deal with Shenmue 2) especially here in NA. I mean for a fan to follow the series they would need a Dreamcast, an Xbox and a PS4 not to mention the room for all that. A PS4 Shenmue collection would just make sense.
@Majic12 Haha, my high school pop career fell flat on its ass! I have no idea why.
Give YouTube a search for Gin & Tonic, too - it was a hit in the making.
@Tasuki I think it'll happen for sure. I'll be shocked if it doesn't.
@Tasuki That's probably the only remaster collection I would look forward to, and erm streets of rage but that's never going to happen.
@Utena-mobile If you don't mind me asking, why would you avoid them? I'm not gonna insult you, just curious.
@get2sammyb
I'm not as annoyed by this because we actually got a new Batman Arkham game (however disappointing it was) first. I might consider getting the collection but I've already played the heck out of Asylum and City on PS3.
@EXP
Both Knight and Origins are worth playing but I'd say if you can only play one, probably Knight. It was disappointing compared to the other Rocksteady-developed Batman games but still good. Origins I would play simply to get the full story. It's a decent game, but not what I'd consider a must-play unless you're a huge fan of the Batman universe. Asylum is the best game in the series, City a very close second. I'd recommend those games to anybody, Batman fan or not.
Need and elder Scrolls remaster (morrowind, oblivion, skyrim), mass effect, bioshock, dead space, and dragon age. All 3 games in one lol
@themcnoisy just can't stop making lists Aye
Might get this once the price drops as I've already played both of them. Would've been more interested, though if Origins was included since I haven't played that one, yet.
I was about to buy a cheap copy after watching all the Batman films again last week timing is impeccable.
@SKC_Diamond I have a problem lol.
@solocapers but we're getting spoilt with LOADS of new games every week and a nice selection of solid remasters? Never been a better time to be a gamer
Great games but not sure on the replay factor for me (played Asylum and City twice). Just get me my Bioshock news please...
Loved all the Arkham games, stupid that Origins isnt on this, but of the ps3 games id only go back thtough Asylum my fave game ever loved how focused it was who makes the next should go back to a smaller setting
Happy with this, Knight was the first one I played and loved it so I can't wait to crack into these at some stage but yeah. Mass Effect is badly needed, besides that and Bioshock I can't think of any other series worth a remaster?
Can't wait for this and BioShock collection!
i know Rocksteady didn't do them but Origins and Blackgate are part of the series so it seems a little odd to not include them or at the very least including Origins
also as for other HD collections, like a lot of others on here i would love a Mass Effect collection
What happened to 'origins'? You would think that they'd put all 3 in the package. Anyways, can we get a collection of Jak And Daxter, Sly Cooper and the original Ratchet And Clanks for a remastered collection...including the PSP versions too. They'd be great ones to play on the PS4 too...even though they were released on PS3.
Awesome news got asylum and city on my 360 which is basically redundant now, would love to play these again....now Cmon mass effect and skyrim!!!
ALL the metal gear games next please.
I'll pass on this one. A Mass Effect collection would be an instant buy as would a Skyrim and Dragon's Dogma remaster. The Skate games would be fantastic too especially in 60fps.
Shame Origins and Blackgate isn't included in the package but Rocksteady obviously didn't make them. But if the game is priced reasonably (£30 will do) then I may get it as I've never played Asylum.
One remaster I really want though is Metal Gear Collection with 1,2,3 and 4, go on Konami.
@PlaytendoGuy you say that but Origins in the ps3 trilogy release
Dark Souls 1 for the PS4. NAO, DAMMIT!
@Nickolaidas Sound great but I would love to see Demon Souls first tough.
Shame to hear that Origins and Blackgate won't be included, but it makes sense since Rocksteady didn't make them, so they don't have the rights to remaster and include them in this collection.
Anyways, I'll probably pick this up eventually, but it's not a high priority since I've already beaten both Arkham and City on PS3.
