This week's (spoiler free) Bat news - How the Batman died and amazing new skins

KAPOW!

Think that pesky Batmobile is dangerous just for goons in Batman Arkham Knight? This video suggests otherwise. This is truly how the Batman died.

BOOM!

Or, y'know, maybe he's fine like that goon I shot with a tank. To find out more about how not dead this man actually is, find out what happened when we asked a doctor if Batman kills people.

SMACK!

Warner Bros has revealed the new upcoming skins that will be exclusive to the Batman Arkham Knight season pass. Michael Keaton's Batsuit and Batmobile come as part of the 1989 Batmobile pack as well as two race tracks inspired by Batman Returns. Also available will be the Bat-family skins pack that includes 1990's Catwoman, Arkham Origins Batman and 1970's Batman. Skins shouldn't be this attractive a prospect. See them in all their glory below. Just look at that Batmobile.

And finally, the first part of the season pass drops today in the form of Warner Montreal's Batgirl: A Matter Of Family DLC which sees the Joker and Harley pitted against Barbara Gordon and Robin. It's available for season pass holders on PS4 and Xbox One today and as a standalone DLC for £5.79 from July 21st. Want more Bat news? Keep your eyes here. Same Bat-time, same Bat-channel.
