Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment have this week confirmed that an announcement on the next chapter of the Batman: Arkham video game franchise will be made next week. The news comes after the release of Batman: Arkham Origins on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo WiiU and PC in October.
Right now, it's difficult to assert quite what the upcoming reveal will entail. The Batman: Arkham Twitter feed had this to say on the matter:

Their hashtag #ArkhamOrigins appears to imply that a new downloadable content expansion pack for Batman: Arkham Origins is on the way, presumably containing new missions set after the game's main storyline campaign. One possibility is that the DC Universe's infamous Suicide Squad will feature as the DLC's central antagonists, a sub-narrative which was hinted at in the title's post-credits sequence, and while many fans remain hopeful that a third Rocksteady Arkham product will be announced, if that project is in the works, expect the news to come in the early months of 2014 instead.The future of the Batman: Arkham franchise is revealed on December 31st.
