Feral Interactive's upcoming Batman: Arkham City Game of the Year Edition is now available for pre-order at Mac Game Store. Developed by Rocksteady Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment for consoles and PC, Batman: Arkham City GOTY will arrive on the Mac featuring all previously released downloadable content, including the Harley Quinn’s Revenge pack.

The Dark Knight descends.

A year after the events of Batman: Arkham Asylum, Quincy Sharp, the new mayor of Gotham, has turned its slums into Arkham City, a terrifying open-air prison where violent thugs and insane super-villains are incarcerated within heavily fortified walls.

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.

• Batman: Arkham City Game of the Year Edition contains all DLC including Harley Quinn’s Revenge, a standalone story set two weeks after the events of the main game in addition to the Nightwing, Catwoman, Robin, Arkham City Skins and Challenge Map packs.
  
• Experience Arkham City as Batman; learn to master the caped crusader’s abilities as you swoop over the rain-lashed rooftops of Gotham in the best superhero adventure ever to come to the Mac.
  
• Face off against a demented rogue’s gallery that includes all of Gotham’s most iconic baddies: The Joker, The Riddler, Two-Face, Harley Quinn, The Penguin and Mr. Freeze.
  
• Take on hundreds of side missions, secrets and puzzles hidden by the Riddler to confuse and confound Batman.
  
• Wonderful toys! Make Arkham City your playground; deploy an arsenal of upgradable gadgets, from a remote-control Batarang to a grappling gun to explosive gel and freeze cluster grenades.
  
• Use Detective Mode to scan for vital clues and reveal enemies’ weak spots, then deliver brutal combos with an improved version of the Free Flow™ combat system.

Hmm. ATI X1300 and GMA 900 (only available in the original Intel Mac dev Kits) support? That's some good porting.

And I am now poorer by $40. I normally don't buy stuff for myself during the holidays, but as a huge comic book nerd, I can't wait to play this! Arkham Asylum is an incredible game, and I've heard this is even better.

Between this and Borderlands 2, I will have plenty to keep me occupied over the X-mas break!

Dumb question, but this doesn't require the DVD in the drive to play, does it? It's been ages since I've bought a physical Mac game.

Edit: I must have missed the memo that MGS went digital-only.

It says, "The majority of publishers allow up to 5 installs per license." What is Feral's policy? This should be clearly delineated on the product page.

IMO install limits are unacceptable.

Feral allows five concurrent activations. You can deactivate any installation at any time and – if you have a disc based version – still play any deactivated installation with the disc in drive.

PayPal still isn't working for me on MGS.
