So far Arkham Origins is throwing every villain it can, minus Kitchen-Sink Man at the Batman. Beyond those side-quest assassins though, players will have their hands full with the eight prime killers of the game. So far, we know of six of them. And now, we know who happens to be filling out the rest of that cast of ne’er-do-wells.
AGB has screenshots of the following two killers, so take it with a grain of salt. Still, looks pretty legit to me. Check ‘em out yo:
Sweet. Lady Shiva is pretty much the deadliest martial artist who has ever lived, while it’s awesome to see Killer Croc returning. He never had much of a role beyond a secret cameo in Arkham City, but I still remember dealing with him in Arkham Asylum.
That one mission brought a great sense of variety to the debut Arkham game, and I’m hoping to see more of it in Origins. The game is out tomorrow in the US of A, and this Friday everywhere else. If you’re getting impatient, then my daily files on the eight assassins such as Deathstroke and Bane certainly aren’t going to help you sate that hunger to punch your parent issues out.

Hopefully I’ll get to play both AA and AC sometime this week, either that or The Witcher.
It all depends on which will finish downloading first.

Sleep? I remember I had the worst bladder infection when AA was released. Did it stop me playing? Nope. Cause a mere bladder infection does not stop Batman!

Sure it burns when I pee, but someone needs to keep Gotham safe!

Use a condom next time dude 😉
Also heard a funny quote while watching a movie with my wife over the weekend (pardon if I don’t get the wording of the character correct)
Went something like “bladder infection common after not having sex for long time”

I’m going to ignore all that & focus on the fact that you tacitly conceded that I am BATMAN!

Only if you concede to the “not having sex for long time”
So you will be a no-nookie-bat-man?

That’s fine. WOOT! I’M BATMAN!

Lol, I love how you painted him into a corner… If he does admit that he has had sex, then his pee is burning due to an SDT 😛

Shiva looks stupid and why is she just Shiva- is she not universally known in every appearance as Lady Shiva? I swear to God i hope killer croc is just a Most Wanted. I do not think a monstrous beast that eats people and has no need for money could possibly be an assassin

Really looking forward to this on Friday! Pre-order already placed and paid for. First game that makes me wanna say “I think I’ll let GTAV rest a little, while I play me some Arkham Origins.”
Almost done with GTA V anywho (according to Rockstar Social Club, I’ve got than 9 missions left). So, as much as I ADORE GTAV, it’ll be nice to dive into another great gaming world. But I will return to GTAV, no doubt – it’s one of the first games that has made me really want to 100% it (I’m on 70% right now).

Although when he first appeared he was an assassin, most modern depictions of Croc show him being more animal than man, both physically (it’s been proposed that the keratosis he suffers from is actually avatism) and mentally that he would be more likely to kill the first few people he sees that night, eat them and rest out the competition. He’s probably in as a similar situation to Anarky and Joker.
