We've finally gotten our first real look at Batman: Arkham Origins thanks to Warner Bros. and Sony during their presentation at E3.

Set five years before the events of Batman: Arkham Asylum, Origins will see a much younger Bruce Wayne only two years into his career as the Dark Knight. The game will see Black Mask put a $50,000,000 bounty on Batman's head. This, of course, lures every mercenary from the DC universe to Gotham for a shot at the cash.

The game is not being developed by Rocksteady Games like the previous Arkham titles, but the new developers, WB Games Montreal, are using Rocksteady's engine to keep the combat system familiar. Watch the footage and let us know what you're thinking.
