![]() And not once did the game slow down or stutter, whether I was gliding high above the skyscrapers or driving at breakneck speeds on the city streets. The level of detail on the city and characters is incredible, from Batman’s new armored suit and cape, to the armor plating and bat-themed rims on his Batmobile, and even the ruined roads and buildings littering Gotham look downright lifelike. The game world itself is about three times the size of Arkham City, and almost twice the size of the portion of Gotham displayed in Arkham Origins. And as much as he would like to be, he’s not alone.įirst off, I have to mention how great the game looks and runs. Of course, they’ll first have to deal with the Dark Knight himself, Batman. Scarecrow’s own private army of mercenaries, led by the mysterious Arkham Knight, have taken up defensive positions all around the city in order to prepare their attack. staying behind to take advantage of the lack of citizens and police to do what they please. Twenty four hours later, the citizens of Gotham have evacuated, with the city’s less savory residents like Two-Face, Penguin, Harley Quinn etc. Opening almost a year after the events of Arkham City, we find Scarecrow threatening a large-scale attack on Gotham City with his fear toxin, after making a rather frightening display of its effectiveness on a small diner full of innocent people. Now that it’s finally here, I’m happy to say that the game really delivers the definitive Batman experience, for the most part. At the very least, these two games made the wait for Arkham Knight more bearable. The follow-up, Arkham Origins Blackgate, was a side-scroller which changed things up a bit it was an okay game, but nothing to write home about. It didn’t quite compare to Rocksteady’s efforts, but it was still a really good game. Rocksteady then hunkered down and started working on the final game in the series, and during the interim publisher WB Games gave us Arkham Origins, which was a slightly bigger version of Arkham City with less impressive graphics and some technical issues. Arkham City was a bigger and better sequel that somehow improved pretty much every aspect of its predecessor. The first game in the series, Arkham Asylum, was a pioneer game and an all new high for superhero games that few others can hope to equal. ![]() Batman: Arkham Knight was a game I and other gamers had been waiting to play for quite some time.
