    This was the first PS4 game I have played, and it was certainly worthy of the franchise name. It is visually stunning and extremely detailed characters and environments. A good size open world, but not so large that it's overwhelming. The original voice actors for Batman and Joker are back which is always a plus.

It is visually stunning and extremely detailed characters and environments. A good size open world, but not so large that it's overwhelming. The original voice actors for Batman and Joker are back which is always a plus. Batmobile is a awesome addition, event though it is somewhat overused. My two biggest beefs with this game however is the lack of boss fights, and the ending. Maybe I'm just a sucker for good boss fights but this game's idea of a boss fight is pretty much fighting a group of henchmen. And for being the final game of the series, the ending is certainly....disappointing. Definitely a must play game for the PS4 though.

    Pros:

    Looks great
    Game mechanics are smooth
    Great story

    Cons:
    A tad too much batmobile
    Lack luster boss battles
    Unsatisfying ending.

    Great game. Put 9 because then user rating is quite low in my opinion. In fact this is a 8,5 game. Top notch graphics, great plot, great batmobil challenges and quests. The only thing I did not like was repetitive side missions similar to far cry.

    Batman: Arkham Knight is a fantastic game and easily one of the best of 2015 (excluding the PC version). A brilliant finale to Rocksteady's Arkham series, it has a great narrative and massive open-world gameplay.
    The story is centred around the mysterious identity of the Arkham Knight, with Batman also facing threats from other villains such as Scarecrow and Harley Quinn, as well as some Joker 'clones'. Rocksteady also did a brilliant job showing Batman's slow demise into insanity, with the Joker screwing with his head throughout.
    The game also allows the player to drive the Batmobile for the first time in the series, though sometimes the tank battles can get a little repetitive.
    With a whole host of additional side missions and DLC, the game is a magnificent play, my only criticism being the amount of tank battles, and enemies such as Deathstroke being taken down in one hit. Apart from that,it's easily one of my favourite games I'm sure to replay again and again!

    Un gran final para esta saga. Este es el camino que deberían seguir los videojuegos basados en superhéroes: una gran historia, buenos gráficos, excelente doblaje... Además en esta entrega han añadido el ansiado Batmóvil para poder movernos con libertad y rapidez por Gotham. Imprescindible

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Although the bat mobile can feel forced and the DLC is extremely disappointing I can't deny the fact that this game was the most exciting,fun and emotional next gen game for me. With the original voice cast returning (except scarecrow and Harley Quinn) I can't help but have the biggest grin on my face throughout the whole story. The story has Batman's last adventure and scarecrows ultimate plan to spread fear across the city and scarecrows ace in the hole is the mysterious arkham knight along the way you can beat side missions,challenges and explore the huge city. However when batman goes to arrest scarecrow in ace chemicals he gets a heavy dose of fear toxin and his inner joker is unleashed and through out the whole story the joker antagonizes you through visions throughout the whole story (which I loved). Near the end the arkham knight is reveled in an obvious twist and a disappointing boss fight ensues you beat him but he escapes. Then during the final confrontation with scarecrow batman's identity is raveled to the world and batman and the joker fight for control and it all ends with batman finally removing joker from his mind and is cured from his disease caused by jokers blood in arkham city. A reformed arkham knight helps batman beat scarecrow and you put him away which leaves you to clean up gotham of its criminals by beating any remaining side missions. Once you complete all the missions you activate the knight fall protocol and you get the full ending if you beat everything (not including challenge maps). Overall the game play is a lot smother than asylum and city and in my opinion the bat mobile was a lot of fun to drive and battle with and there's a lot more story to go through that I didn't write about I say check it out batman fan or not but definitely play asylum and city first (origins if you really like all 3 games) Expand

I really hate those. At the end they were just boring. I was like: how much more? Do i have to really suffer though an another cheap-ass scenario? OMG! LET IT END FiNALLLY!
    What i loved when i actually could investigate something, when i could use my brain. There were too few of these.
    Riddler trophies: just like the game itself, some of them i liked, some of them i hated.
    I have really mixed feelings about this game. Maybe it's just not for me. :(
    Gotham was gorgeous! Really loved it!

    UPDATE: Apparently i was stupid and/or tired (it was sometime after midnight), because that was a feature, not a bug :D
    I leave the there, maybe someone makes the same mistake as i did. Apologies for the QA team.
    Actual review coming soon, in the meantime i give it a nine (instead of the original 0).

    Original review:
    After about 30 hours of gameplay i encountered a game breaking bug. At Panessa Studios when i am trying to apprehend Albert King, and i open the door that leads to King, then i get back to the room where i was before. So i open the door at room A to get in room B, but instead i return back to room A. I can't open the door again, can't return ti the surface, total lockup. Tried many things, for hours actually, but nothing. I am tapped. Robin is nowhere to be seen.
    I liked this game so far, but a game breaking bug is a deal breaker!
    THERE ARE NO WORDS HOW FURIOUS I AM RIGHT NOW!!! A FREAKING GAME BREAKING BUG AFTER 2 YEARS OF THE RELEASE?!? Come on guys, you should fire your QA team at once!
    I invested so many hours in this game, i simply not going to start again, just to run into an another game breaking bug, or the same one. It's a shame. And terrible job also.

    Now the story is decent but there are a few things that piss me off like the fact that you never face scarecrow in a final bossfight like you do with the arkham knight and the fact that 60% of this game is drone fighting with your batmobile (MORE LIKE THE BAT TANK) it just sucks that rocksteady decided to ignore all the potential for the batmobile (BAT TANK ) and just feel lazy about it and not even bother,
    Its like get in the batmobile fight drones SHUT UPP :( the characters are boring especially the arkham knight
    Scarecrow is not any better as well , but theres one man who outshines them all and its your good old friend THE JOKER this such a creative edition to the game and it gives the game some very funny moments the controlles are great though i do recommend you using a controller instead of a mouse and keyboard, the fighting is awesome stealth is decent graphics are gorgeous best looking batman game off all time exploration is cool some skills are useless all in all its an above average game and its definetly worth buying now :)

    Being someone who's favourite game of all time is Batman: Arkham City, you can imagine how high the bar was set for Arkham Knight. It does try its very best to scratch and claw its way to that bar, but does not quite reach it, for a reason I will explain later on.

    Firstly, the gameplay is as spectacular as it is in previous instalments, its far from broke so why fix it, right? Gotham

    Firstly, the gameplay is as spectacular as it is in previous instalments, its far from broke so why fix it, right? Gotham City has never looked so crisp, and the sheer size of the City to glide from building to building really does make you feel like the Bat. The voice acting is as brilliant as previous games, with most actors returning to their roles, in sometimes brilliant fashion.

    What takes this score to a 7? The batmobile. When it was announced that the batmobile was playable in Arkham Knight I was optimistic about what that would bring to the game, would it be a way of getting around a huge Gotham City quicker? Maybe used in a couple of missions? This is true, but using the batmobile becomes more of a chore than a help. Most missions will include some kind of mini-horde mode where you will have to take out other tanks, which is fun the first couple of times but becomes a drag. The Riddler creates tracks for the batmobile, come on, is that what The Riddler is all about?

    All in all Arkham Knight is a very good game, but the batmobile does overstay its welcome massively.

    Batman : Arkham Knight is a continuation of the excellent action-adventure video game series featuring Batman, developed by Rocksteady studios.

    Some fans have affectionately called the games which consist of Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, Arkham Origins (not developed by Rocksteady, but Warner Bros Montreal) as "Batman simulators" whereby you as the player get to really experience the awesome skills and tech that Batman has at his disposal.

    Arkham Knight continues and improves on the tried and tested formula established by the previous games in the series, most notably by including the Batmobile and giving the player complete control and freedom to use the vehicle pretty much anywhere on the streets of Gotham City.
    Enhancements and additions have been made to the freeflow combat system, and beating on thugs has never been more fun. Where the freeflow combat really shines is during missions where Batman is fighting side by side with an ally, such as Robin, Nightwing or Catwoman and doing skull-cracking dual takedowns on your victims.
    Predator mode does not seem to feature as much in Arkham Knight as much as it did in the previous games - quite possibly due to the game world having been expanded significantly and no longer having so many closed off and tight spaces, but another skill has been introduced in the form of Fear Takedowns - which is basically a move where Batman can take down a number of goons in quick succession by selecting and pressing a single button on your controller.

    The story is similar to the previous games with the Scarecrow and the an original character named the Arkham Knight being the "big bads" alongside a wide selection from Batman's rogues gallery such as the Penguin, Riddler, Two Face, in lesser roles - who are putting Batman through his paces during one rainy night in Gotham City.

    This game, being a "next gen" exclusive title for PS4, XBox One and PC, has seen a major improvement in the graphics department and the detail is truly impressive. From raindrops running down Batman's suit and cowl to high detail models and textures, this game truly showcases next gen graphics. While the PC version of the game has had a lot of bad press due to its general buggy state, the PS4 version runs flawlessly and smoothly.

    All in all the game is thoroughly enjoyable and a must-have for anyone who enjoys action adventure games such as Shadow of Mordor, God of War and the previous Batman Arkham titles.

    65% Tank Battles 35% Batman Game Play.

    The tank was an amazing addition but way too much of the game is spent in tank battles. Use of cannons and guns goes against what Batman stands for but developers brush over it with the use of hundreds of unmanned tank drones.

I played Asylum some years ago and although this is not my kind of game I recognise that it was a good game so there were not any red flags, especially with so many reviews praising this game but from the beginning it felt repetitive. Also, don't expect having any help when you don't know what to do (I don't know how many times I looked for help on Youtube!). I highly recommend to spend some points improving the defense and the cannon of the batmobile because if not it's going to be very very difficult and even doing that you are going to have to be skilled with the battles with the batmobile. I only did 3 sidequests and they were not much interesting. I don't like games were you have to do many sidequests to keep advancing with the main story and this game is made this way (like the latest Asssassin's Creed games are too). I like playing to be entertained and not for being stressed like in this. Plot is ok. Graphics are good. It could have been a better game if it was easier and if it would help you with hints when you needed them. The voice of Batman is horrible (he speaks like a robot), much better in Spanish.

    I would only recommend this game to people looking for "challenging" games or that want to do the sidequests (and then earn points to improve things). If not the case, you will end up dying again and again and again and getting frustrating. I bought it for a good price so I will probably get my money back. The main story must last about 16-19 hours but I think it would have last about 12 hours if it wasn't so difficult.

    When I first finished the main story, I felt disappointed about this game. I thought Origins was way better because of its bosses and story. I'd have given Arkham Knight a 7. But then I decided to play the side missions. Wow! Every secondary mission was so gooood! I loved them all and I think Batman Arkham Knight is the first game I have 100% completed, and that is really satisfying.

    Arkham Knight is even more fun to play than Arkham City. The gliding is faster and controls wonderfully, and the combat is more intense. Say what you will about the Batmobile, I found driving enjoyable once I got the hang of the mechanics. While the story isn't as strong as the one in City, it contains one of my favorite final boss experiences in gaming.

    Not really a huge Batman fan myself but this game first of all looks amazing. Compared to Arkham City the models look outstanding. Only completed the supposed first ending so I'm basing my impression on this, and the story was pretty well done, especially at the end which got pretty creepy at times in a cool way. Looking forward to the Arkham VR game.

    Gráficos, duración, control e historia sorprendentes. Hace en falta alguna mejora en la escogencia y mecánicas de los jefes finales. Sin embargo, no deja de ser uno de los mejores juegos del 2015.

    Very boring. I'm tired from batmobile. Missions = copy & paste. There is almost no story. Just copypasted missions.

    Playing in this game is very hard and boring work.

    Bardzo fajna gierka, jedna z lepszych jeżeli chodzi o uniwersum Batmana. Fabuła trzyma fason, postacie także, wątki poboczne na początku były nużące, choć po przejściu gry, jest to miły dodatek. Osobiście motyw pojazdu nie przypadł mi do gustu, choć jest ciekawy i robi wrażenie. POLECAM!

    If you have played an arkham game before, you probably know what to expect. Predator gameplay combined with awesome martial arts combat, which in one sense, is exactly what this is. But in another sense, this is so much more.
    Finally, Scarecrow, one of batman's most compelling villians, gets the screentime he deserves. Arkham knight, an equally fascinating adversary also plays a huge part. And best of all, though deceased, the Joker's duality with Batman is explored as a figment of Batman's imagination. This is an immensely satisfying story that concludes the story exactly how a fan would want it to.
    The gameplay is well varied for the most part. Predator encounters are presented sparingly, and usually with a new strategy required to complete it. Melee portions are pretty cookie-cutter, but come on, those are just awesome; The new environmental takedowns only add to that.
    Where the game goes wrong for many people is the large amount of gameplay in the batmobile, which does get pretty repetitive. I personally have fun in the batmobile, but there are several instances where I spent about thirty minutes dodging and shooting at tanks for a mere side objective. These new gameplay mechanics, would have been breathtaking had they been used for just a few levels, rather than 75% of the game.
    All in all, Batman Arkham Knight presents a compelling open world environment with a variety of challenges while simultaneously delivering the narrative cohesion that was missing from the Arkham City and Orgins.

    Still one of the best PS4 games you can play. Very fun gameplay (combat or just moving around the city), amazing side content, great story and VA. Insane graphics for a 2015 game. Only cons are the Batmobile sections and sometimes somewhat frustrating Riddler trophies (which are optional though).

    Amazing graphics, Amazing story line, Amazing characters, Amazing voice acting, and Amazing rain, I mean it looks so real and beautiful and the best thing about this game is THE BATMAN.

    There are many positive things that I can say about this game and very few bad things. In this game you are fighting to save the city from scarecrow's evil plan to spread toxic and make everyone go insane. The story is really good, the fighting is outstanding and few scenes in this game are just Amazing and I'm not going to tell here to spoil your moment but there are many that you will find. How can I forget about the Batmobile. I can only define it in one word "AWESOME". I read about some people saying that they love it but they don't like that they have to do missions with it, but I totally disagree because Batmobile is a Fantastic feature and I believe it's a great addition to the franchise.

    There is one problem with this game and that is the Villain, I mean I like scarecrow but I think he didn't deserve to be a main villain. I can't recommend any other villain but I think if they had shown Bane or Deathstoke the main villain and had made Final Boss battle worth remembering then it would have been wonderful.
    So my Final verdict for this game is that its a must buy game and trust me You will enjoy

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Rocksteady had a very interesting idea for the story and the gameplay is probably the best gameplay of all time but they made a misstake when Paul Dini, who wrote Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City, quit.

    The story is really fun to play and enjoy UNTIL the Scarecrow releases the cloudburst all over Gotham and where the game starts to fall with way to many tank battles and a overused Batmobile makes 1/3-1/2 of the game feel like Rocksteady were just throwing time wasting stuff in the game to make it longer which feels unnecessary since the game's main story is about 10-12 hours long and the could've been great if it was just 8 hours with just a few tank battles and 1 tank battle fight.

    The boss battles are huge let downs since the game gave us all this build and it just led to another bossfight -in a tank...

    But Penguin's side mission and some other side missions are really great and the game is definitely worth buying.

    Gameplay: 9/10

    - Huge improvement of the gameplay, Batman can now interact with the enviroment as you're kicking ass with bats, huge light bulbs the Batmobile etc.
    But when it comes to the Batmobile it could've been a little bit better but it's still great!

    Story: 8/10

    A little predictable but it's a really good story.

    Graphics: 10/10

    The graphics looks great almost too great with great effects and character models. I was very impressed. While they made Bruce Wayne look a little too old and a very handsome man the other characters looks superb.

    Overall: 6.7/10

    Way too long with an verused Batmobile makes it feel thrown in our face like, "Here, take this and now eat it".
    Could've been cut down to 8 hours without way too many tank battles and like I said before, they made a misstake when Paul Dini leaved.

    In my opinion, it was the best game of the Arkham series. I really enjoy being the Bat, and also having the opportunity to play as one of his sidekicks. I was not pleased by its ending, though, which lacked more attention and improvement. But it's something that should not cause someone not to play this masterpiece.

And to my surprise...I was totally right, while it wasn't the worst game of 2015, it just didn't met my expectations....

    Okay so the story is actually interesting with scarecrow taking over Gotham and a "new" character called the arkham knight wants revenge on batman for something he did to him.
    Now, this is the most psychological story of Batman out of the two games I've played and I will give it points for that, my problem with this story is that even if the scarecrow story was decent, the arkham knight story was bad, like really bad, I won't spoil it but there is a reason why I said a "new" character, when you know who he is I was really disappointed by saying "really, this again?" and the conclusion with this character was really underwhelming.
    And it's sad because the scarecrow story was really good with a incredible ending and "final boss", I just wish we had more stuff like this in the game.

    The melee combat was perfected and the graphics are really good.... HOWEVER there is one big problem with this game, it's the batmobile, well I take it back the driving was actually satisfying, what I don't like it's in combat mode, it's slow, boring and sluggish.
    Now a lot of people asked for the batmobile, I didn't want the batmobile because I knew I would end up with something like this, it wouldn't bother me if it was optional or at the very least not using it that much... BUT YOU HAVE TO USE THIS STUPID THING FOR 70 PERCENT OF THE GAME !!

    In the end, it didn't met my expectations, the graphics were fantastic, the melee combat was satisfying, the scarecrow story was interesting and the game does redeem itself a bit at the end of it.
    But the arkham knight (who is in the title of the game) was bad and the choice of the batmobile being in the majority of the game was a really bad one;
    If you are the biggest fan of batman, you will enjoy this, but for me, I didn't have fun playing it....

    Visually, the digital character models are some of the most detailed and life like ones I've seen in a game so far! With Uncharted 4's being on par with it! Gotham does seem smaller with the attention to using the car A LOT, but you only forced to be in the vehicle during certain sections, so you can go on foot at any time.

    One of my favorite things that I loved was the integration of the GCPD Lock-up and how you progressed through the game AND the DLC! Speaking of the villians; ALMOST everyone is featured this time around and are respectfully showcased, save for the few that were either killed off following the previous games. (But that doesn't guarantee that they WON'T come back in the game!)

    Fair warning for those that DO get the Season Pass, AVOID playing the side stories UNTIL you've beaten the game. Some of them contain MAJOR spoilers on the main story!

    The game and it's DLC are totally worth it!!!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As someone who loved the Arkham series, felt Arkham City was the peak of this franchise (still do), I saw Arkham Knight with anticipation and curiosity. With this in mind:
    Story: 6 (Okay, let's get this out of the way, be warned SPOILERS ahead. With the epic finale of Joker's death in the last game, how does Rocksteady top off such a GRAND finale? The point is, you don't. Arkham Knight whether by choice or by accident stays comfortably in mediocrity, while delivering a somewhat obvious yet underwhelming plot twist, an ambiguous ending and a return of the joker in a somewhat clever way. But not too clever, I was frustrated by the fact it didn't live up to my expectations, and even when I tried to replay it, I got bored because I anticipated nothing anymore. You don't end this series with a whimper, you end with a bang, and you certainly don't end by requiring the player to 100% it to unlock the FINAL ending. Yes, because that was clearly a tradition in the last 2 Arkham games, that's what I really want to do once I spent hours playing a game, find out you need to spend MORE hours finishing the job. You could have gave me a head's up, Rocksteady. However, I LOVED that one joker scene. You know the one.)
    Graphics: 9 (This is a very beautiful game, the characters are well animated the visuals are stunning for all platforms, even that crappy PC port. There are beautiful details on the models that still impress me despite being a few years old at this point. When Arkham Knight was announced back then for what was considered, ''Next gen'', they said they would take full advantage of the hardware, they were right.)
    Gameplay: 7 (The combat felt very fluid, and a lot of the sneaking mechanics felt refined from the previous titles. The car parts were a bit...basic. You have to spend hours tediously mastering the tank like movements of driving and fighting with the Batmobile-tank-thingy. Then, you must sit through hours of tedious boss battles that are very monotonous and lack creativity in the way you can tackle these obstacles. They are very easy to remember but poor in versatility. Though, it is a bit fun to drive through Gotham and smash people's cars. Also, screw that Jason Todd boss fight, such a predictable way to end the game's '''''''climax'''''''')
    Sound: 8 (While the soundtrack is not as great as Arkham Origins or Arkham City, this game does boast a theatrical soundtrack that fits the atmosphere and tone. There's not much wrong with this, though unfortunately the frustrations of playing this game can distract you from appreciating it. It's well done, but not too catchy.)
    Controls: 7 (I've already explained how much I despise the Batmobile sections of this game but otherwise when playing as Bruce, Dick, Harley, or Redhood. Everything else felt pretty fine to me.)
    Content: 5 (Oh god. Let me get this straight, while Arkham Origins was a bit small on the side quests, they were creative, especially the Mad Hatter one. Arkham City had an abundance of sidequests that were interesting to mediocre, but not lacking. Arkham Knight DEPRIVES YOU of many classic Villains from appearing in the game, so that you can spend 30 dollars on a season pass for the developers to finish their game. For a game that lacks all of the very interesting and fun DLC, this is inexcusable and sloppy. If the game had all the DLC programmed into the game from launch, I'm sure I would enjoy the game a lot more. This was just sad.)

    7/10 but this game feels more like a 6/10 for me, simply because of the lack of content they launched this game into. You rushed things, Rocksteady and this was the price you paid.

    The character, as usual in this series, are awesome and you care about all of them, Barbara and Jim Gordon have an impact as never before, wich i loved. All the 3 main villains work very well, the Scarecrow type o villain is just awesome, it have the felling of freddy krueger, voice and gesticulation , preetty cool, arkham knight have a great plot twist, and the other i'm not gonna comment, cause can be a spoiler.
    The story line is almost so awesome as it was in Arkham City, an very emotional and inspiring game, with a bunch of ways to interpret a lot of moments, some parts you can feel the despair in the character in need to do something, but it just can't, you want to do something, but just can't as well, it would be a hell of a movie.
    Combat and stealth still the exact same, still works for me, the side mission, not so good as it could be and as it was in origins and city.
    Now, this game could be great, but is just to good, why ? one word, batmobile... i know, i know, a thing that we all were waiting in all other games, in the beginning is pretty cool, enjoyable and all of that, but it gets to repetitive, i mean, TOO REPETITIVE, it's so boring that you need to fight in the batmobile every damn time, even the bosses, you gotta fight then all in batmobile it's horrible, the only good thing about batmobile it's the locomotion, and should be the only thing that it can provide, but the fights happen every time and aways shooting at tha bright point in other tanks, need to do this hundreds of times, it take so patient to do that without turning the game off and do again later.

Batman: Arkham Knight offers gamers a complete Batman experience as they rip through the streets and soar across the skyline of the iconic Gotham City. Expand

    Don't get me wrong this game has some really high productions values, but the game play parts kind of suck. Ok the Bat is not the Spiderman or the Flash who can cover great distances in combat just no and no. The Bat the man is a modern day ninja with gadgets not a super powered super hero.

    Turning Batman in to Battlezone the tank game who even thought that was a good idea? Maybe cool

    Turning Batman in to Battlezone the tank game who even thought that was a good idea? Maybe cool for five seconds or used as a throwaway cut scene yeah. The driving feels clunky so not even that much fun as a street racer.

    Over hyped and underwhelming just like MGSVPP. Question do you want more to do, but less better executed? Or more better executed and less to do? The notion of bigger is better and more is more made the fun less and less with this one. Arkham City got the Batman tech on offer mix just right.

    The main problem is this is just so damn boring repetitive in both in terms of story and gameplay compared to the previous Arkham games ( except for cash grab crash fest Origins ). This game works best when I don't play it much or that often. Ok to dip and out for small doses, but one straight focused run nah.

    UPDATE: I really want to like this being a fan of the first two Arkham games. So I even picked up the season pass hoping the extra DLC would elevate this game somehow.

    As a Batman fan, I love the many skins for the characters and the batmobile. It's extremely fun playing as different versions of Batman, If you're a Batman fan, it would be a crime to not even try this game!

    This is an odd game. It has all the fun and enjoyment of the previous Arkham games but then it'll do a 180 and force you into batmobile missions. If I wanted to place a racing game or a tank battle game, I would've bought one of those instead.

Cheap, that's the overall feel this game has left me, everything from the uninspired side quests, to the mediocre story, and lack of boss fights seems bad. Instead of delivering an experience that increased the stakes and expanded on the Arkham World, all we get is a mediocre mockery of Batman Arkham City, with repetitive gameplay, and quick answers to every story arc. I honestly don't understand why they bothered giving the arkham knight this name, it was evident from the get go who he was, it feels like a ridiculous PR move that makes absolutely no sense. But as a long time Batman fan, what crossed me the most where the side quests, each one lazier than the last one, awesome opportunities missed with villains like Man-Bat, Thomas Elliot, Deathstroke, Firefly, Pig, they all ended up feeling repetitive and well....cheap, instead of expanding the lore, and showcasing different characters through story telling Rocksteady decided to craft missions more interested in checking boxes in the "what arcs do we need to close" list in the most effortless way possible, a policy that bleed into every aspect of the game, including the DLC, where yet again, Rocksteady dropped the ball, with short useless bits of the same old same old, with no relevant narrative nor kick.

    .This game was a lot of fun, I found myself playing it almost non stop until I finished. But I do want to mention the god awful batmobile segments, I have yet to 100% the game because I'm afraid of the batmobile Deathstroke fight. But otherwise, the controls are amazing, it looks awesome, the return of Mark Hamill is welcomed. Get this game even if you've never completed the Arkham series, its fun

    The story in Arkham Knight is fantastic and darker than Nolan would ever dream. This **** is dark.

The other villains being ArkhamThe story in Arkham Knight is fantastic and darker than Nolan would ever dream. This **** is dark. Scarecrow has teamed up with the Arkham Knight to bring Gotham City to its knees and show that the Batman not only can be killed, but has fear. The Scarecrow believe it or not isn't a bad main villain but I still feel he was overshadowed by other villains. The other villains being Arkham Knight and another I won't mention due to spoilers. The mystery of the Arkham Knight is very compelling, and I'll admit eventually I got to the point where I was Arnold from Predator constantly saying, "what the hell are you". I appreciate that the story will take breaks and tell you now is a good time to do side missions. I will say I was slightly disappointed in the lack of a Rogues Gallery of villains. I didn't see some of my personal favorites like Bane or Deadshot, or Mister Freeze. Now that is a nitpick because this is definitely a personal story with Batman. We get deep down into his psyche, and see his slow decent into madness because of Scarecrow. With the twist being **** amazing having me on the edge of my seat I will mark it down for a grievous offense. When you beat the game to get the true ending you must 100% the game. **** that. Seriously Rocksteady I will never go out of my way to find the Riddlers bull**** trophies. I just don't have time for that **** So yeah Rocksteady next time let the reason to get Riddler trophies be something like 100 gamerscore or a Batman suit to wear not the ending to the game.

    The voice acting is phenomenal in this game. Hell there is a music number that is so catchy that it was stuck in my head while I was at work. I will say I wish Scarecrows original voice from Arkham Asylum was in this because that **** was cool and not just a rehashed Dr. Strange. The game looks beautiful, the fact you can drive the Batmobile in heavy rain and have it feel like it was raining hard is just fantastic. They will force you to stay out of detective vision which is great so you can just admire the third redesign of Gotham. My issue is with yet again we don't have a Gotham city with civilians. The story has it make sense why none are left, but damn it I want innocent people to save otherwise the basic thugs on the ground are just there to be there because I sure as **** aren't going to fight them.

    The gameplay is Batman with new toys. That is something I feel like they dropped the ball a bit. The first time you see the Batmobile is amazing, but they force you to use it so much I got very annoyed. I have some very big issues with this Batmobile. The thing is clunky as hell to drive, and the combat they make you do against the drones starts out fun and turns to a Oh **** you in a hurry. I got very frustrated with this **** vehicle. The gadgets were more useful in combat; unlike in previous games you kind of need to use them to be effective. The new enemies range from an interesting new enemy like the new heavies, and drone operators to why the **** are they in this game. The main new enemy I hated was the medic. The medic can bring guys back after you broke 16 bones in their body. In the predator style these enemies are a big of an issue,but while you're in the middle of a brawl with 20 guys these enemies had me cursing at my tv. The games side missions are all multi-tiered. So if you want to go fight Two Face or Penguin you must do about four similar missions before hand just to punch them in the face. That isn't that bad it was just lacking from Arkham City where you randomly find The Mad Hatter. I like this game don't get me wrong it was a helluva lot of fun, and I do feel like while I may not have enjoyed the changes as much it is still better than them just making the exact same game over and over. This is a new experience to the Arkham games that we needed. I'll be honest I almost went into the Dark Knight quote with the Arkham game we may not want but we deserve. I butchered it. Stop Judging me!

    Overall I may have highlighted more I disliked than I liked, but that's only cause the stuffed I liked were thing common to the Arkham games. I would definitely recommend people buy this game if you're fans of the series. If you are unknown it seriously can hurt to rent it, because the other two games are reference but not necessary to the story. I give this a solid 4/5. I have my problems that keep it from a perfect score, but it is Batman and you gotta love the Bats. I leave with a question. Has any of you wonderful gamers ever done the Riddler trophies and challenges?

    Though this game was decent it was not as good as the previous games. Batman Arkham City set a high bar and it was difficult to surpass, thought this is a good game. The problems I had with it is that they keep throwing the batmobile in your face and it makes flying around almost useless since you have the batmobile which is much faster.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. People are incredibly unforgiving to this game. People wanted the Batmobile from the very beginning, and then Rocksteady gives us the Batmobile, everyone is disappointed. If I created a badass war machine I would want to show it off. The claim that it is "Un-Batman" to have a tank is total **** because Batman has a gadget for every situation, and if the city is overun by an army with tanks, you get yourself a goddamn tank!

    The narrative is so brilliant, Scarecrows contant reminder's about fear can get a little annoying, but it was the same in Arkham City with "Protocol 10 will commence in x hours." Having the Joker be part of Batman, and his fear of him is so clever and brilliantly implemented, and linking the disease to a real life disease (Creutzfeldt-jakob disease) adds credince and believablility to the idea of the Joker disease.

    The tank battles are too new to the series to be have so many of them, partly because the predator sections and hand to hand combat have been growing since the beginning of the series. So I can understand peoples aversion to having something pushed into the series so fast. But I still like it.

    All in all get this game. It is a blast and is better than Arkham City in almost every way. Get in PS4 just in case. ;)

Gráficos estupendos, historia muy buena, banda sonora y efectos tremendos, combate divertido, varias horas de contenido entre trama principal y misiones secundarias que, si bien no son extraordinarias, cumplen. En fin, lo que se espera de un Batman Arkham, y ahora con el añadido del Batimóvil que es buenísimo. Pero dicha adición resultó ser un arma de doble filo para el juego, y voy a explicar por qué.

    La implementación del Batimovil trajo muchas cosas nuevas y divertidas, pero se terminó abusando del mismo, al punto de volverlo un poco tedioso luego de varias horas de campaña. Hay situaciones que podrían haber sido épicas, pero no... se resuelven con el Batimóvil en una pelea común y corriente. (SPOILERS) Un ejemplo de esto es la pelea contra Deathstroke. Uno se imagina una pelea tremenda mano a mano, ¿cierto? Bueno, estás equivocado. Se resuelve con una pelea de Batimóvil en modo tanque como cualquier otra que hacemos contra los tanques del Caballero de Arkham. Incluso Arkham Origins que para mi es un juego ultra infravalorado, tiene una pelea contra Deathstroke muchísimo mejor. Esto en mi opinión le baja algunos puntos a la jugabilidad pero SOLO la relacionada con el Batimóvil, porque insisto, el combate cuerpo a cuerpo sigue siendo excelente.

    No deja de ser un muy buen juego. (SPOILERS) Mucha gente se ha mostrado descontenta con la revelación de Jason Todd como el Caballero de Arkham, pero a mi me tomó completamente por sorpresa, y el cierre para la saga me pareció sublime.

    Incluso con los defectos mencionados, para mi es un 8 bien merecido.

    Although the characters and story is slacking a little behind the second game in the series it still isn't bad at all. That is the only thing holding it down from a 10/10. Graphics have improved(don't know how that's possible) and there is an overwhelming amount of stuff to do in the city. I can't get over how beautifully gritty the night life looks in Gotham City.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Batman AK is an absolute blast to play and overall a great game. It, however, does not move in to the legendary category that its predecessors had due to not being as innovative and being just a touch too repetative,

    Arkham Asylum paved the way for the Arkham series and blew away everyone's expectations for a Batman game. Arkham City was hyped to all hell and still managed to be better than the hype surrounding it with its amazing boss fights and unique locations.

    Arkham Knight is truly a great experience. Using the batmobile for a while is great. The unique aspects of the story really challenge you to become Batman and be a hero. From start to finish, the game is fun and addictive and being in the shoes of Batman is never disappointing. A lot of the side missions are amazing and range from brawling encounters to detective scenarios to the occasional romps in the Batmobile. If it weren't for how great its predecessors were, this game would be one of the top Action games of all time.

    However, Arkham Knight has to follow in the footsteps of the great Arkham City and it makes it hard to love by comparison. Arkham City had some of the most unique boss battles in the last decade of gaming all together - in particular, the evolving tactics of Mr. Freeze and the trippy scenes with Ra's Al Ghul.

    There are nearly zero memorable boss encounters in Arkham Knight. The onlys ones that really feel like they challenge you are in the Batmobile. One Batmobile boss would be fine and would make the game feel complete and refreshing, but nearly all of the memorable encounters are in the Batmobile. Then, when you are challenged by Deathstroke 3/4 through the game, you think FINALLY, a boss worth battling! But this is just another Batmobile fight. Disssssapppppointing.

    However, the sour taste left by the less innovative parts are more than made up for by the improved battling and Riddler trophies. Of course, if you're looking for a game to complete, this is NOT the game as there are simply too many things to do. If you have more than 150 hours to give to completing this game, then by all means, enjoy all the extras. I'll enjoy the story (including all of the Riddler trophies) without the added fat.

    Overall though, this game is an amazing experience and I highly enjoy it and reccomend it. And it will still be a great experience in the coming years!

    Batman: Arkham Knight is the best looking game in the series so far, and includes a lot of cool stuff for fans of Batman. But at the same time it’s starting to feel like Rocksteady is almost too comfortable. It lacks new content, except the pretty bad designed Batmobile parts. If you haven’t played the previous games that much you will probably think that this is one of the best games this year.
