Catwoman a Playable Character in Batman: Arkham City

Rocksteady reveals Catwoman will be more than just a pretty face in Arkham City.

We've known Selina Kyle would be a major character in Batman: Arkahm City since the game was first announced back in December. What we didn't know until today is that the brunette vixen known as Catwoman will also be a playable character in the anticipated sequel from Rocksteady.

Speaking with Gamespot, the U.K. studio revealed that Catwoman will be playable through a small portion of the main story and even have her own progression path that allows players to upgrade her acrobatic moves and equipment. Further, Catwoman will be key in accessing certain areas that Batman can't reach on his own, helping players discover Riddler trophies.


Rocksteady went out of its way to confirm Arkham City is a Batman-centric adventure, and Catwoman will serve as more of a change of pace, offering gamers combat moves and exploration abilities that are true to her character and unique to the game.

Batman: Arkham City is in development for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Windows PCs. The game is set to ship on October 18.
