That's where you're wrong. Arkham Knight is Rocksteady's final Batman game, they're ready to move on. WB Games, on the other hand, is going to milk the cow until it keels over. It's all but guaranteed that Arkham Origins 2 (or whatever else it'll be titled) is being developed by WB Montreal, ready to be announced 6 months after AK launches.

We can expect toys to be released in unison with the games for as long they make money for everyone involved. Don't underestimate their popularity - there's gonna be a whole generation out there who sees the Arkham series as THEIR Batman, having either never seen, or just don't appreciate, the Burton/Shumacher movies, BTAS, or anything else during/before that period. It'll be a toss-up between Arkham and the Nolan movies, and as good as those first two movies were, they don't let you BE Batman.
I stand corrected on the future releases. And again let me stress I LIKE WHAT I SEE. I just think the popularity of the games is being over stated.
Saying an entire generation will define Batman by one or more of the Arkham games....seems like a stretch. In the same time frame you have batman the brave and he bold, young justice, Justice Leauge, Injustice, Batman Beyond, Infinite crisis
Wouldn't it be more fair to say that an entire generation will come to know batman by the best selling of the batman video games, Lego Batman and the Lego Movie?
Again I agree with everyone that of course Mattel is going to cash in on the games success. I play the games. I'm just saying why call it multiverse and then do four out of five waves of Arkham?
I anticipated the suggested Arrow wave, split with Gotham and the Flash. Failing to promote the tv shows doesn't make sense to me and makes me feel like its an arkham line with the occasional bonus thrown in. As a causal Arkham fan why should I bother to follow the line? I like arkham because it lets me be batman, I don't like to be Batman because he's in Arkham.
