Batman Arkham City Game of the Year Edition is now available in the Mac App Store. The $39.99 game follows the Caped Crusader as he must once again sprint into action to save the world from mayhem.

The game is an upgraded version of Batman Arkham City, with the same plot, characters, locations, and, well, pretty much everything, being augmented by a few rather fancy GamePad features, and all of the previously downloadable-at-an-extra-cost extras being included on the disc.

When Batman is imprisoned alongside Gotham's most notorious, he must discover Arkham City's true purpose before it's too late. This intense, atmospheric sequel to Batman: Arkham Asylum plunges Batman deep into a gothic nightmare from which he will need all his wits, gadgetry and skill to escape."

The conclusion to Rocksteady's Batman Arkham City, the sequel to its predecessor Batman Arkham Asylum, left many gamers wondering where exactly the direction that the studio would take if another game was made. Some even speculated that this would be the end of Batman, and that a Superman game would be next. For now though, neither of these possibilities are going to happen.

Featuring events happening one year after those in Batman Arkham Asylum, the game first arrived on Xbox 360 video game consoles, and Microsoft Windows, in 2011. It includes Mark Hamill and Kevin Conroy as the voices of the Joker and Batman, respectively.

After escaping to the rooftops, and collecting your Batman gear thanks to a supply drop from your loyal butler Alfred, you're on your own, as you attempt to unravel the mystery of Protocol 10, protect the innocent from the inmates, and come face to face with Arkham City's most infamous characters.

Publisher packs also make a comeback; Steam users can pick up the online shopping for a greatly reduced price. Further, there is a pack of thirty indie games, including Bastion, Orcs Must Die! 2, Limbo and Trine 2, available for $70.

It was announced that Rocksteady was going in a different direction. They will be focusing their efforts on a prequel of sorts for the Batman Arkham City, that's supposed to even include the Justice League and be strongly influenced by Batman's Silver Age.

The current daily deals include the Hitman, Prince of Persia and Borderlands franchises, Scribblenauts Unlimited and Mirror's Edge. We particularly recommend trying to get hold of Batman Arkham City, which is currently on a flash deal.

For this sale, the community choice system also returns, where gamers can vote for the games they would like to see next slashed in price.

Trapped inside the complex, and held before Strange, you learn that somehow, the professor knows that you're really Batman, and talks about initiating "Protocol 10", something that will make him "a hero", and will be a testament to Batman's failings.
