Update: Following the earlier leak, Game Informer has gone live with its cover reveal of Arkham Knight.
As you'd expect, the accompanying write-up corroborates much of what we said below. The Batmobile is explained as a "core element" of gameplay, which means a new area of Gotham larger than Arkham City will be revealed, including wider streets to accommodate the vehicle.
An accompanying video also explains the game takes place a year after the events of Arkham City. Game director Sefton Hill also says, "This is the natural end for the story. We really want to go out in style."
More details will be revealed in due course, which we'll be sure to keep you abreast of.
Original story follows.
