To coincide with the release of the anticipated final instalment of Rocksteady Studios’ Batman: Arkham series, Sony have revealed a limited edition Batman: Arkham Knight PlayStation 4 console bundle.

The unique bundle will include the limited edition Steel Grey PlayStation 4 system chassis, with a custom Batman: Arkham Knight faceplate, a matching DualShock 4 wireless controller in Steel Grey, and a copy of the finale in the award-winning Arkham Trilogy, Batman: Arkham Knight.

The limited edition bundle has a suggested retail price of $449.99. Although no official pricing information is available for South Africa, it is estimated that this bundle will be at least R6799.

In addition to the limited edition bundle, Sony also made mention of a standard bundle that will include a Jet Black PlayStation 4, Jet Black Dualshock 4 controller and a copy of Batman: Arkham Knight.

For those who already own a PlayStation 4 console, the game is now available for digital pre-order through the PlayStation Network Store.

Gamers who choose to purchase Batman: Arkham Knight for PlayStation 4 will also get access to bonus game content before it becomes available on other platforms, including additional in-game missions and custom skins for the Batmobile.

The Steel Grey PlayStation 4 looks incredibly sexy. However, this bundle appears to serve new customers more so than it does gamers who already have a PlayStation 4 system. Simply put, the limited edition Arkham Knight PlayStation 4 console bundle does not offer any additional incentive for current PlayStation owners. Bundling a limited edition Batman statuette, for example, would have made this package even more appealing.
