Most of Batman: Arkham City will take place on the streets of Gotham City. "Interiors are locked to specific missions, but 80% of the game takes place on the streets," according to Rocksteady's marketing game manager Dax Ginn in an interview with PSM3. This means a significant portion of the game is dedicated to exploring at your own pace without sacrificing the narrative. Despite this freedom Ginn reassured readers, "Plot is really important to us."
NEWS: Batman: Arkham City Release Date Revealed
"Our objective was not to make a bigger game world just for the sake of it. We want to fill it with content, and there's no better world than Batman's universe to take inspiration from.
"We have 97 people on the team, compared to 65 on the first game. Because we've decided to make such a large world we had to bring in more artists, animators and so on. It's been a pretty huge technical and creative undertaking for the team."
Batman: Arkham City is reportedly only an 8 hour game. Do you think that will be enough time to explore, get a story and enjoy the experience? Batman: Arkham City will be released on October 18 for the PS3, PC and Xbox 360.

if any of you actually took the time to click the link that said "reportedly only an 8 hour game" then it would of took you to the article in which it talks about this game being an 8 hour game if you're a ninja. which means if you know where everything is and how to take down every enemy. i'm just suggesting that if your going to take the time to post a comment saying how stupid it is that someone said that or whatever you should take the time to click the link its attached to.

I believe they also said that it would take 8hrs start to finish main story arc... if you were a ninja

8 hour game? That's stupid. Who on earth reported an 8 hour game? Because ROCKSTEADY reported that the 8 hours is if you know where everything is and don't do ANY side missions.
Stupid, misleading comment. Designers have said that some of their favorite stories are in the side missions. And the game should take 25 to 30 hours.

Arkham Asylum took me a long time to beat with everything it had to offer and with AC has to offer I think it will be a LOT more then 8 hours long.

I doubt the game will be 8 hours long (though possible to play in 8 hours, possibly an achievement/trophy for Arkham City). Good to hear info about this, can't wait till October (though I kinda can, only cause the weather kinda sucks in New Jersey).

I think they forgot a zero, it's an 80 hour game, right?

I'm looking foreward to flying the Batcopter around the city, and cruising the waters in the BatBoat, this game is gonna be awesome!
JustTheBeginning
Arkham City is NOT an 8 hour game! That is like saying Fallout 3 is a 10 hour game because you can do just the main story missions and blaze through it on super easy without dying once or stopping to do anything. Kind of insulting you would even suggest that Nikole.

8 hours for a speed run maybe. By the time you grab all the Riddler trophies and extras, it's bound to take at least twice that long. And that doesn't include any of the challenge rooms, if they have them this time around.

It's only 8 hours if you are an abosolute ninja (or Batman, go figure). With all the extras to explore, I have no doubt that a single run through will be upwards of 15+. Can't wait for October.
