h/t - @repub9989

ubergizmo - Good news to all Batman fans out there! Gameloft has just announced its tie-in game for the The Dark Knight Rises movie that is set to launch on theaters beginning July 20. The video game developer recently released a teaser for the game with the same name, as you see in the video above.

“Why do we fall?” That was a question young Bruce Wayne was asked in Batman Begins and it’s one that's just as important in The Dark Knight Rises, the final installment in Christopher Nolan’s Batman saga. Borrowing a page from Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Returns, the film finds an older Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) who has hung up his (gas-powered grappling) guns and retreated into Wayne Manor, now a recluse who needs a cane due to all his injuries sustained as Batman. Bruce hasn’t donned the cape and cowl in the eight years since Harvey Dent died and he took the fall for his crimes.

Now two people will draw Batman out of his self-imposed retirement: cat burglar Selina Kyle (Anne Hathaway) and Bane (Tom Hardy), a masked terrorist with a brutal plan for punishing Gotham City. Trapping the people of Gotham within their own borders, it’s up to the newly returned Batman and the GCPD -- specifically Commissioner Gordon (Gary Oldman) and Officer John Blake (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) – to save them from Bane and his army. Much more happens than that, but let’s keep it vague for now so as to be sensitive to spoilers.    More
