E3 has no real surprises at the mo but have reinforced known games and introduced new franchises (Sunset Overdrive TJ Combo from Killer Instinct). As i'm following only a few games I caught this.

Now here is what we see fro the trailer (Or at least what I caught)

- His Bat Suit in more detail

We already knew from previous trailers that his suit is more armour plated and more advance than previous suits, in Origins it had visible armour segments in a padded fabric with shoulder armor and knee-shin guards. In Asylum and Origin it is far more streamline, thinner but can still take a bullet, the armour is a mesh and appear lighter for more mobility maneuverability as well as softer mask. 

- the suiting up itself scene

It seems t be apart of the games itself, we may actually for the first time see the World Bruce Wayne live and works, we never saw Wayne or Wayne Industries... Or at least his office. I bring this up because it appears to be a hub of sorts, maybe and it could also be a Riddler opportunity.

 

- Gotham Skyline

The city looks huge, I can't tell if he is still on the Gotham City islands but seeing as Batman jumps out of his office he may very much be on the mainland and looking at the wide streets seems more than likely.

- Gliding

Batman's Cape is visibly different, shaped more like Bat wings with the shortest points being where I assume the feet traditionally are, it also has some added detailing in the design. It appears gliding is much faster too, something I wasn't a fan of in the older games was how slow gliding sometimes felt but it seems you can cover ground faster, which is nice. Diving seems more easy to maneuver as well that's good.

-The Streets of Gotham

wide and towering as well as littered with lights and pedestrians, unlike the old looking buildings of a dilapidated city we see newer modern structures.

-The Batmobile

It looks easy to drive the streets, collateral damage seems minimal but present, pedestrians move out of the way and may not cause problems for traversing (Hit and Run causes police engagement etc). As we've all probably seen this car a fusion of schumacher Batman and Nolan Tumbler. It's a tank like vehicle for urbant errain and as armed to the teeth as well as segmented for balance and maneuverability, the Schumacher influence is in shape and feel, that Hightech neon look. It might be the best car so far. It clearly has 2 mode we'll talk Tank here, Tank mode is designed for quick bursts of strafing side to side, widening probably to remain standing when firing or taking damage. Ejecting seems easy enough just boost out to gain momentum and fly like a bat out of hell.

-Triple dive takedown

It seems that no longer do you have to wait between frames in order to attack more than one person after you take down an enemy from above, You can know in capacitate 2 while knocking out one thug and deal with those two in for hits (2 each) in one fail swoop.

 

- Penguin is Bald

Apart from stepping up his armaments, in fact it alludes to the Villains of Gotham stepping up at the same time OR taking the Cities decay to their advantage and it's easierr for them to make things worse. The Arkham Knight seems to be on his own side, to what end? We'll find out soon enough.

- Scarecrow, He seems to be the main villain, he looks like he's been put through the ringer, he could have been absent since City or he just finally had enough and compiled this end game. Creepy stuff, good, City lacked that atmosphere Asylum had.

-Exclusive delay

The Delay for next year sucks Monkey Ball (not the super kind), I suspect it's because of the exclusive content BS, not just Harley as you can see but apparently Scarecrow stuff will also be exclusive too I reckon that's their reason behind it so they can get it completed and the full game is damn near finished.

 

Something I've noticed is... there may be no Alfred, I'm probably wrong But Oracle seems to be Batman's main confidant this time, it may not be the case but I don't remember seeing him in the other trailers, he isn't in Wayne Manor and since Joker died it's truly on the cards.

 

Anyway it's still evening hear and the Sun is still out I'm replaying Arkham Origins... Because.

 

This is V saying "Rest in Peace"
