Batman: Arkham City Single-Player Only

Rocksteady Studios game director Sefton Hill has confirmed that Batman: Arkham City will not feature any sort of multiplayer mode.

During an interview with IGN he stated, “There have been a number of rumors circulating about a multiplayer mode in Batman: Arkham City so let me start by saying, once and for all, that Batman: Arkham City is a "single-player only" experience.”

Hill claims multiplayer was in the thoughts of the studio staff, but says “it would not have been possible to deliver Arkham City the way we wanted to if we'd have added multiplayer." For the full interview head over to IGN.

Co-Op would of been a nice addition. But MP is not needed

Definitely for the best. The MP would at best be a neat little addon that you'd only play for an hour or two - not worth the development time. Glad they're pouring all their efforts into the SP

Shame, especially after that Batman/Joker fake.

Definately a plus. Not every title needs multiplayer. Maybe EA should take note and leave MP out of great single player experiences such as the Mass Effect series.
