The voice behind Batman in Arkham City, Arkham Asylum, Injustice: Gods Among Us, and the 90s Animated Series, Kevin Conroy, won’t voice Batman in Arkham Origins.
NAG Magazine revealed that Warner Bros. have decided to use a new younger voice talent because the game features younger version of Batman in his early years. The identity of the new actor hasn’t been revealed yet.
Well, that’s a reasonable choice, since Batman: Arkham Origins’ main storyline is set several years before that of 2009’s Batman: Arkham Asylum and follows a younger and less refined Batman.
Let us know how you feel about this news in the comments below.
Previously, Arkham Origins will feature multiplayer.
Batman: Arkham Origins will releases on October 25, 2013 for Wii U, Playstation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.

Cheaper voice talent you mean,i have a feeling this game won't be up to scratch,cutting corners already
It's Bull$%#@… That's how I feel.. It don't matter, Batman could be 14 year old boy and I think Kevin Conroy could still be the best voice for Batman.. HE IS BATMAN!
This is a shitty game already
First it's got multiplayer…Now it's got no Kevin Conroy….IDK..I loved the previous two but I might be skeptical about this now…
i wouldve prefeered lke online or spiltscreen co op thtd be fun no multiplayer like someone is dick an the other is batman
well if its got multiplayer then we should know this game has failed before its begun seeing as every developer normally puts more work into the online than to the story the reason the other two have been great is because its pure singleplayer why does every game have to jump on the band wagon and have online
What? Batman without Kevin Conroy is unthinkable!
You guys are too judgemental on this subject, you cannot judge the game until you play it! It makes sense, this makes sense to have a youn g actor for a Young Batman. You SERIOUSLY want an old voice coming out of a YOUNG man, do you know how fucked up and retarded that makes him look? Multiplayer sounds weird with the villains being customizable but I don't know what then means exactly, and I only don't like that multiplayer is online only, my internet is not mine so I don't like that I cannot join in. Be open, and do not judge until you play it, I know there are guidelines to this, I love Batman and Kevin but please look at it from a realistic point of view and be open.
that's just shit, Kevin Conroy IS batman, I mean nobody can make as good job as he´s done since the animated series, I remember i used to watch them and I just loved Bat's voice, WB can´t just change him like that!!!!!!
The game is now in a coffin ready to be buried. What a pity.
not the best start for this game, i'm concerned when they say younger
Makes sense I guess, but still disappointed :
first no david hayter for mgs now no conroy im a huge batman fan since i was in the womb i already think the new or old batsuit is a minus i think it should at least look a little like the 89 batman movie
Easy guys, Is just like the animated movies, the voice acting in Year One was very good.
i guess it makes sense, kevin as batman in this game would sound odd, but then again,kevin conroy IS batman…i hope the new voice actor manage to do a good job. (first mark hammil and now kevin conroy? the classic voices are vanishing.)
a younger batman….thats the reason???A good VA can sound younger without any problems…
yes he did it on the show when they showed him younger
