Electronic Arts have released the first screens of the new Batman game based on the upcoming Batman Begins movie.

The last Batman film, Batman & Robin, was such as disappointment that we're all hoping the new film, due for release this comming summer, is going to revitalise the movie franchise. Electronic Arts have just released some new screenshots from the upcoming game based on the Dark Knight's latest adventure, where we see the genesis of the Batman character.

"The theatrical release of Batman Begins will be the entertainment event of the summer. Leveraging our extensive experience with blockbuster franchises, we look forward to bringing this game to market," said Frank Sagnier, Vice President, EA Partners Europe. "The Batman fiction is rich with style, drama and action - three elements that define this game and will help plunge players into the heart of the experience."

The Batman Begins film explores the origins of the Batman legend and the Dark Knight's emergence as a force for good in Gotham. In the wake of his parents' murder, disillusioned industrial heir Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) travels the world seeking the means to fight injustice and turn fear against those who prey on the fearful. He returns to Gotham and unveils his alter-ego: Batman, a masked crusader who uses his strength, intellect and an array of high tech deceptions to fight the sinister forces that threaten the city.

"Batman Begins is the darker depiction of Batman that we've all been waiting for, and we are teaming with EA to bring players an edgy, action game that captures this tale," said Jason Hall, Senior Vice President of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. "Co-publishing Batman Begins allows Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment to continue its involvement in the development and marketing of quality games based on Warner Bros. properties."

"We're thrilled to partner with EA and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment to capture the magic of Batman Begins in a ground-breaking videogame," said Paul Levitz, President and Publisher of DC Comics. "This will mark the first time that a Batman video game has been developed to complement a film event, and we look forward to inviting players to step into the movie's reality and make the world of Batman their own."

Batman Begins is due for release on the Xbox, PlayStation 2, PSP, GameCube & Game Boy Advance this summer.
