WATCH: Red Hood Story Pack promoted in new Batman: Arkham Knight advertisement
Coming to consoles and PC later this month, a brand new advertisement has surfaced online for "Batman: Arkham Knight" that promotes the "Red Hood Story Pack" - a Gamestop exclusive that allows players to take control of former Robin and Batman's second ward, Jason Todd.
Kicking off release date month up a notch to promote the game’s release in just a few weeks time, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, DC Entertainment, and Rocksteady Studios have released a brand new advertisement to promote the “Red Hood Story Pack” for “Batman: Arkham Knight” that’s exclusive to Gamestop.
Better known as the modern identity to former Robin and Batman’s second ward Jason Todd, the “Red Hood” persona was worn by several villains, including the man who would be transformed into “The Joker“. After dying at the hands of The Clown Prince of Crime and resurrected by powerful forces, Todd assumed the Red Hood identity to bring ruthless and extreme justice back to Gotham City, which was already part of his violent nature even during his tenure as the second Boy Wonder. Now Jason Todd will make his entrance into the Batman Arkham universe with this story pack, and one has to wonder how he’ll factor in to Batman’s crusade. Is he an reluctant ally or foe seeking vengeance by killing – something that The Dark Knight strictly takes issue against?
