I can't say no to the below. Though the Riddler stuff sounds shit.

Last Batman game for Rocksteady, will work on something totally new next.
There will be a brand new villain, something made by Rocksteady that they say will be the ultimate test for Batman
Batmobile can be called at any moment with a button.
The city streets are much wider to allow for the batmobile. You will rocket jump off ramps and do all sorts of cool maneuvers.
You can eject jump out of the batmobile right into a super fast glide straight through the glass of a building to knock out enemies. They said glass breaking will be a big new thing.
New moves include being able to use all your gadgets during flight. You now have a counter throw where you counter a guy and throw him into another guy. A new quick ground takedown. A quick backflip where you then throw a batarang in an enemies face.
For the predator sections you can now chain takedowns of up to four enemies. For instance pop out of a grate and take one guy, jump to the next and so on. You can now enter grates from a distance, he will automatically do a jump or roll to enter them.
Riddler challenges seem to be car based. The first one has you enter a sort of Riddler race track where you have to activate walls and ramps, when you activate one another closes so as you drive you have to be constantly turning on and off these ramps as you navigate the course.
Batmobile fires missles and stun guns. It destroys anything it touches so if you bump into cars the cars go flying. It's basically unstoppable.
Story is that after Joker's death all the criminals decided to work together and their plan comes together this night where they plan to kill batman. The article talks mostly about Scarecrow, he scattered bombs throughout Gotham.
Oracle will play a larger role, you get to visit her base and talk to her, tons of batman easter eggs included.
Kevin Conroy is Batman, all the previous voice actors are back.
Gothom City is 5 times bigger than AC. Split into 3 areas. NO LOAD TIMES at all, entering buildings is seemless.
They spend a bunch of time talking about how detailed the models are, one character has more polygons than the environment of Asylum.

Oh shit, sounds like the Arkham Knight is a kind of anti-Batman doppelganger. Boss.

My money's on this guy:

http://www.dccomics.com/blog/2013/05/22/what’s-new-in-the-new-52-introducing-wrath

They say the main villain is a new character but that could be taken as a new character to the series and even if it's a brand new character altogether, the game's been in development for easily 2 years or so surely and this character's been introduced last year in the comics. Could have been made for the purpose of both formats. Matches the description of the guy seen in the footage easily.

He's wearing a codpiece :D

Could be awesome if they don't pull any 'OMG it was the Joker all along!' bullshit.

Kind of didn't enjoy Arkham City because it felt less focused when compared to Asylum. Given that Knight has a batmobile I'm approaching this one with caution.

Didn't play Origins because it wasn't released on next gen and didn't have a unique enough hook or team behind it to convince me it was a worthy use of my life.
