It looks like Warner Bros Interactive Studios upcoming title Batman: Arkham Knight will be getting an official novelization. A listing for the book has now appeared on Amazon and will be released on July 7th, 2015. Batman: Arkham Knight is scheduled to release on June 2nd, which is roughly a month before the novel's release. So if you’re a fan of gaming novels or Batman, then you can head over to the site and pre-order a copy of the book.

Batman Arkham Knight: The Official Novelization is being published by Titan Books and is about 320 pages long. The book is said to be based on the events from Arkham Knight and may be filled with the game plot in written form.

Besides the novelization, DC will also be publishing a new comic book which will serve as a prequel to the events in the game which should be out later this year. For now it is unclear if the novel will expand on the game’s story or it’s characters.

Batman: Arkham Knight is scheduled to release on June 2nd for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. It’s the last game in the Arkham series and will see Batman face off against many foes including the new enigmatic Arkham Knight. Rocksteady Studios have not revealed many details about the Knight character and all we know is that he is an original character created for the game. So this could be a real plot twist in the Arkham saga.
