I don't know that much about Batman, but I've always been impressed by his seemingly unique skill set. How driven must one be to become an expert at the things Batman is an expert at?
However, this new trailer showcasing the Initiation Challenge Map Add-On for Batman: Arkham Origins seems to suggest that Bruce Wayne simple enrolled in Batman School, passed some exams, and then donned the cowl. What a let down, eh?
Anyway, the Initiation Challenge Map Add-On sees Bruce training in your standard mountain-top martial arts monastery. It will add four new challenge maps and two new character skins: Initiation Bruce Wayne and Vigilante Bruce Wayne. It will be available tomorrow (Dec. 3) on the PSN, Xbox Live online entertainment network, Steam, and the Nintendo eShop for $6.99 unless you have purchased the season pass - then you can download it at no cost.
