The Crown Prince of Crime will also be joined by two other denizens of the Gotham City underworld: Poison Ivy and Midas. The $30 bundle will be coming to Nintendo, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles on Nov. 17.

The mobile piece of that equation could of course have to do with Epic's ongoing Apple showdown (which also now includes Google). It's not clear why the PC release of these skins would be held up, though.
