BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM MAKES HISTORY AND SWOOPS TO NUMBER ONE!

04-09-2009

Building on the phenomenal success of the Batman: Arkham Asylum demo, which exceeded two million downloads in one week, we're delighted to announce that Batman: Arkham Asylum hit the number one spot in the UK, France, Germany, Sweden and Denmark. We're still awaiting data from elsewhere but we'd like to thank everyone for their support.

But that's not all, Batman: Arkham Asylum has made history by securing a Guinness World Record for ‘Most Critically Acclaimed Superhero Game Ever’!

Gaz Deaves from Guinness World Records states, “We are so pleased to be awarding Batman: Arkham Asylum a Guinness World Record. It is a fantastic new game and due to the reaction of gaming experts we believe it has a well deserved place in the Guinness World Records book.”

Don't forget to drop into the Official Forums to chat about the game with other likeminded players. And if you're a PC owner, Batman: Arkham Asylum will be available from the 15th of September in North America and the 18th of September in Europe and beyond.
