Robin a Playable Character in Batman: Arkham City

Developer Rocksteady Games was pretty adamant about not having the focus of these games shift too much off of the main man himself, Batman. But now, hot on the e3 announcement of Catwoman as playable with a storyline all to herself, comes word from Best Buy (of all places) that Robin is present and accounted for as well.

Reportedly the Boy Wonder will be a bonus exclusive challenge map character for Best Buy customers. But did Rocksteady really build a Robin character model just for some superfluous extra? Or might there be more to it? Nobody's saying anything as of yet and the game doesn't launch for the PS3 and Xbox 360 till the fall, so stay tuned true believers.
