If you’ve launched Batman: Arkham Asylum lately, you may have noticed an interesting update to the in-game news ticker. Apparently, the PlayStation 3 is getting new and free downloadable content in nine days, that’s Sept. 17.

We don’t have any other information on this content at this time, but we’ll let you know as soon as we learn what this DLC will consist of. Is there anything you are hoping to see in this new free DLC?

    More playable characters for challenge mode and a way to start a new game with the same save file.

    @4 they dont have exlosive batarangs in the game. the sonic batarang doesn't explode

    @ 8 the sonic batarang do blow up, use it like how you use the explosive gel. Just hold L1 and press R2.

    Free DLC is always welcome in my budget. hope it's new character (Robin or Nightwing) to play through the story mode

    well the game sold better on the ps3 so i guess the whole joker thing worked :)

    I wouldn't mind different costumes for Batman, such as the classci blue and maybe Bruce Wayne skin. What I really wanted in Batman game was to ride the Batmobile, if that came in DLC: it'd be my dream come true.

    ... and I still wait on Best Buy to send my copy.... sigh....

    Ya, it will probably be dissapointing costume items.

    Personally, I'd love to see them turn some of the challenges into multiplayer matches where 1 player is Batman and the thugs are other players. That could prove to be a real hoot that would rival Uncharted 2 gameplay... if done right. But, this is asking a lot of the developers.

    @9 they send out sonic pulse that kills the guy but they do not explode

    I got the Dem Bones challenge map from preordering from Gamestop and I think it's great. However, I hate the fact that it's over if you get hit even once. It would have been much better if they had it to where you just didn't regenerate health, instead of ending the match if you get hit. That said; I hope they do something else with the skeleton DLC.
