Batman: Arkham City is the sequel to the award-winning Batman: Arkham Asylum. The game takes place one year after the prequel. The story concerns a derelict area of Gotham City, Arkham City, which has been turned into a massive prison for criminals and psychopaths, with security provided by a PMC called "TYGER." When a speech by Bruce Wayne regarding closing Arkham City ends in his capture by the mysterious Hugo Strange, he, as Batman, must discover what Hugo's plans are and end them.
The game features new gadgets, Catwoman as a playable character, more challenging puzzles and additional optional missions. Mark Hamill returns as the voice of Joker in this sequel.
The following weapons can be seen in the video game Batman: Arkham City:
Unknown pistol 1
Two-Face uses two unknown handguns described in-game as .45s when he is first seen in the courthouse.
Unknown pistol 2
A second pistol is seen in silhouette on posters near the central "Restricted Area" of Arkham City.
Remington 870
The Remington 870 shotgun with pistol grip seen in the prequel returns, and is seen in the hands of gang members, usually during stealth sections.
"Assault rifle"
Fictional AR15-pattern rifles are used by criminals and police. These weapons are incorrectly shown with the right side the same as the left, meaning they have no ejection port or forward assist. They appear to be loosely based on the Noveske Rifleworks Diplomats seen in The Expendables, even featuring a rather exaggerated version of the Vltor VIS-1 upper's handguard. They also feature a slightly altered Heckler & Koch G36 export carrying handle, with the sight removed and the handle itself dropped down accordingly.
Heckler & Koch G36KV
While the rifle model in the game has changed, the icon shown in Detective Vision mode when looking at enemies armed with rifles is still the Heckler & Koch G36KV from the first game.
Colt M4A1
Members of the TYGER PMC are using what appear to be M4A1 rifles in the "Hugo Strange" trailer.
IMI Tavor TAR-21
Snipers in the game use a modified TAR-21 rifle with a massive, silly barrel extension which apparently turns it into a .50 calibre rifle without changing the 5.56mm magazine. This is an improvement on the preview screenshots, however, which had Batman's "Detective Vision" identify it as a "120mm sniper."
Steyr AUG
A Steyr AUG is shown on posters throughout Arkham City in the hands of a PMC soldier. It is shown with an extended barrel and incorrectly has a magazine added forward of the grip and a handguard added to the barrel.
Milkor MGL-140
A Milkor MGL-140 grenade launcher is used by Two-Face in the E3 2011 video, and is used in the game itself by Penguin. Like the TAR-21, the barrel has been extended, though not by nearly as much.
Mk 2 hand grenade
Armed thugs sometimes use Mk 2 hand grenades to flush the player character out of cover.
M230 Chain Gun
Patrolling TYGER PMC helicopters seen over the city are armed with M230 Chain Guns on their undersides, equipped with searchlights.
