The Wii U version of Batman Arkham Origins will be $10 cheaper than the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions.
Kotaku (http://kotaku.com/multiplayer-free-wii-u-version-of-batman-arkham-origin-1411326454) reports having received confirmation from the game's publisher, Warner Bros., which has set the Wii U version's price at $49.99 - $10 less than the PS3 and Xbox 360 version, which will retain the conventional $59.99 price tag.

The $10 discount perhaps serves as compensation for the omission.
Arkham Origins' multiplayer is being developed independently of the single-player by London-based studio Splash Damage, which has previously developed Enemy Territories: Quake Wars and, more recently, class-based shooter Brink.
Warner Bros. recently confirmed a Batman: Arkham Origins season pass (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/431131/batman-arkham-origins-season-pass-offers-an-all-new-story-campaign/). It will contain five of the game's upcoming DLC packs for a one off payment of £15.99, compared to £27.99 when bought individually.
Warner has confirmed a Batman Arkham Origins release date (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/430388/gta5-debut-uk-sales-top-all-other-gta-launches-combined/) of October 25.
