    The last part of the trilogy of the archem, which disappointed the monotonous gameplay slipped into a meaningless grind, and a weak plot intrigue. I was pleased with the beautiful graphics, I could not even imagine that unreal engine 3 is capable of such.

    Batman: Arkham Knight still stands on its ground graphically even after a few years; unfortunately, it is just a horrible unorganized mess when it comes to the controls.

    I just wanna mention that i bought the limited edition at launch and was definetly dissapointed with how poorly it ran.

The game does stealth right combat is still the same thing wich is dissapointing, Story is just decent unfortunately since thats a step down from City and Asylum. Alot of this game uses the batmobile as a tank wich is dissapointing since thats not very fun, dont get me wrong theres noting more badass than driving the batmobile in a Batman game but using it as a tank is just boring since you have to use it alot in this game. With that said Im just dissapointed like many others its still good for Fans but it it left many of us wanting more.… Expand

    Batman Arkham Knight - Последняя часть квадралогии Arkham. Для меня это лучшая игра про Бэтмэна. Она конечно же не без недостатков, поэтому стоит пойти по порядку. В этой игре, как обычно, присутствуют минусы и плюсы. Но также присутствует и один спорный момент
    Плюсы:
    + Графика. Это одна из самых красивых игр 2015 года. Все, конечно, помнят дикие проблемы с оптимизацией на выходе, что    Batman Arkham Knight - Последняя часть квадралогии Arkham. Для меня это лучшая игра про Бэтмэна. Она конечно же не без недостатков, поэтому стоит пойти по порядку. В этой игре, как обычно, присутствуют минусы и плюсы. Но также присутствует и один спорный момент
    Плюсы:
    + Графика. Это одна из самых красивых игр 2015 года. Все, конечно, помнят дикие проблемы с оптимизацией на выходе, что даже издатель убрал игру из стима примерно на полгода. Но сейчас этих проблем нет, и игра смотрится просто суперски и с хорошей оптимизацией.
    + Геймплей. Это часть является квинтэссенцией всего самого лучшего из предыдущих частей. К сожалению, кое-что профукали, но в целом, геймплей в этой игре очень разнообразный.
    + Бэтмобиль. Мне понравилось кататься на нём, танковые бои и разнообразные гоночки очень радуют и совсем не напрягают, многие говорят, что бэтмобиля слишком много и он перетягивает геймплей на себя, но мне так не показалось.
    + Финал истории. Сюда входит не весь сюжет, так как он меня слегка разочаровал, а именно финал всей истории Бэтмэна. Весь этот момент ты сидишь с открытым ртом. Это очень круто, эпично, а режиссёрская постановка тянет на уровень высокобюджетного фильма.
    + Джокер. Вся психоделика, связанная с ним просто суперская. Очень круто всё сделано. Сильно описать не смогу, так как это спойлеры.
    Спорный момент:
    +- Сюжет. Он очень хороший, даже был бы лучшим в серии, если бы не один конфуз
    - Боссы. Вот это главное упущение этой игры. Во всех предыдущих частях были просто офигенные битвы с боссами, но тут все боссы какие-то однообразные, одним словом: никакие. Это печально.
    - Дополнительные задания. Их довольно много, и некоторые из них довольно интересные, но в целом, это просто зачистка точек, сбор трофеев, и повторение одних и тех же действий. Не сказать, что это прям ужасно, но могли сделать и получше.
    ИТОГ: Для меня это лучшая часть из всей квадралогии. Хоть она получит оценку и ниже, чем Arkham City, но почему я тогда считаю её лучшей? Объективно, она уступает кое в чём Arkham City, поэтому многие люди считают лучшей частью квадралогии именно сити, но для меня всё-таки рыцарь остаётся лучшим. Тут ты чувствуешь весь накал страстей, сюжет здесь намного тяжелей для восприятия, и несмотря на один ужасный момент, описанный выше, он был бы лучшим. Игра более масштабная, и несмотря на то, что я поругал дополнительные задания, мне все равно нравится их выполнять, даже унылые зачистки точек. Здесь есть всё, что не хватало сити и другим частям. Лучшая игра про супергероя.

    I loved arkham asylum and arkham city. With Arkham Asylum, you got a close quarters games with excellent combat, amazing boss fights against Batman's storied cast of villains and some very clever puzzles. Arkham City built on everything in Arkham Asylum by turning up the combat and puzzle-solving several notches and adding an open world with many excellent mini Arkham Asylum-esque locales.I loved arkham asylum and arkham city.

Arkham City built on everything in Arkham Asylum by turning up the combat and puzzle-solving several notches and adding an open world with many excellent mini Arkham Asylum-esque locales.

    Arkham Knight adds the Batmobile; a really fun way to get around the world which introduces a new way of combat and puzzle solving. Overall I did enjoy what the Batmobile added to the game, although one gripe I did have with the Batmobile was how finnicky the controls could be at times.

    However, Arkham Knight feels like one step forward, two or three steps backward, as it seems that Rocksteady sacrificed some of the best parts of the previous two games for the Batmobile. Gone are the boss fights and environmental puzzles using Batman's utility belt tools are almost completely gone to be replaced by Batmobile puzzles. While the Batmobile puzzles will tickle the brain, they are never difficult enough to illicit an Eureka moment, something which the previous games constantly succeed in achieving. It is a shame that I could count the number of times I had to use tools like the line launcher in the entire game on one hand.

    Story-wise, Arkham Knight succeeds at tying a nice bow on the trilogy. The main villain, the Arkham Knight is downright intimidating right from his first appearance and provides a first in the series, an equal to batman's tactical acumen and fighting prowess. On the other hand, Scarecrow is a perfect foil to the Arkham Knight's brawn as the game's secondary antagonist. While the Arkham Knight comes off as rash and even perhaps, angsty, Scarecrow exudes cunning and control. It is a testament to how well-written Scarecrow is that he is able to illicit fear in the main characters and the audience in every single scene he is in. Overall, I loved how well the Arkham Knight's story was fleshed out and Batman's story was closed.

    Despite my criticisms about the lack of boss fights and the over-emphasis on the Batmobile, Arkham Knight is a fun game, albeit a deeply flawed one. I would still highly recommend it to anyone who enjoyed the previous two games. For everyone else, well, it does make you feel like batman.    … Expand

    Arkham Knight is the excellent closing of Rocksteady's Batman saga.

    *HISTORY*: Nine months after the events of Arkham City, on Halloween night, the Scarecrow threatens the city with its new strain of fear toxin, forcing to evacuate the city's six million civilians. Only criminals remain in the city. Arkham Knight presents a very interesting script and a large cast of characters.    Arkham Knight is the excellent closing of Rocksteady's Batman saga.

    However, some of them feel quite wasted.

    *PLAYABILITY*: Arkham Knight presents the best gameplay of the saga, but the repetitiveness of the Batmovil and some failures of the combat with the environment subtract points.

    *GRAPHICS*: Arkham Knight, still in 2019, is still a beast graphically. The artistic design is superb.

    *SOUND*: An exquisite soundtrack, convincing sound effects and excellent dubbing.

    *INNOVATION*: Arkham Knight brings quite a few new things, but it's not the revolution that Arkham City was in its day.    … Expand

    The game seems to be great and amazing... if it were not poorly ported to PC. It has technical issues that makes batmobile races unplayable, and found myself with a game breaking bug trying to follow Two faces missions. I could only see the bad ending, and without catching Two faces I can't see the true ending. I'm not going to waste another 60 hours playing a game that result I can't finish.

    The game is epic and immersive, and of course you only get this for the fantastic graphic detail of it. Visually is impressive, and once more, like in previous games of the saga, the characters are extremely well designed and detailed graphically and with fantastic voice acting.

    Fully recommend it, as the previous ones. Its one of the big games of the past years to "must have" to any Steam collection.    … Expand

Finally the gameplay here is as good as it gets I think and it really shows off how brutal and talented Batman is when it comes to combat. The Batmobile is really cool and the tank mode is decent. It get's really monotonous after a while, even with the harder tank variations. Finally the amazing cast of the game delivered amazing performances, from Gordon to Scarecrow and of course Conroy's Batman. Play it. It's worth the time invested.… Expand

    Noticeable slowdown like 6 hours in when in the blimp... so I tweaked the settings and it ran smooth again. Seems like it's V-Sync stuff. Anyway, game is great, even if I understand the hate that Batman drives a tank and he can literally fly around the city faster than driving. It adds gameplay variety and the game was engaging from start to finish for me.

    Porting issues aside, Batman: Arkham Knight is a decent enough game. It's not the spectacular swansong we hoped for from Rocksteady, but it's another solid - if predictable - slice of Arkham gameplay, with a couple of great sections along the way.
