A playable Batgirl prequel story DLC announced as part of the Season Pass! She looks friggin awesome.

at a $40 season pass though, I'll likely never get around to playing it though (unless I grab it on sale eventually if i still have interest in the game).

Just can't support the way the season price passes have been repeatedly creeping up in price. Base game + season pass is now $110 in Canada. No thanks.

I really hope people boycott the season pass. At 2/3 the cost of the actual game, spread out over a LONG period of time, and largely vague descriptions of what you're getting it seems like an absolute terrible deal.

Hah, I wish. It's a Batman game, so people are going to eat it up. The developers know this and are taking full advantage.

What else have they announced as part of the Pass beyond Batgirl?

[DarkKni9hT]

Loving the inclusion of the other Bat-dudes in this. I just hope the scope of what they do is more than in past games. Robin had his own limited story in AC, but it was pretty short. And Nightwing was only useful in challenge mode. My hope is that, one day, they will make a Batman game requiring the entire "team" to work different parts of the story to bring it to resolution. So Batman tracks some leads, then Batgirl has to find others, followed by Nightwing and Robin if you get my drift. That would be a truly epic Batman game.

Really looking forward to this release. I'll be there on release day.

I have not bought season passes for any of my games, but 40 bucks it might be worth it if you get all that and more. I wouldn't mind driving the batmobiles
