New trailer reveals 2.5D Batmaning in Batman: Arkham Origins — Blackgate

The Bat is back and ready for some side-scrolling thanks to his upcoming 3DS and Vita game, Batman: Arkham Origins — Blackgate, and now publisher Warner Bros. Interactive is giving all of us a look at the game in action.

WB released a new trailer that sets up the story and shows off some of the gameplay. No surprise, the Dark Knight once again has to go into a prison and fight a bunch of imprisoned supervillains. This time, the action is 2.5D. The visuals are all 3D, but most of the action happens on a 2D, side-scrolling plane.
