    | A Weaker Ending |

    I was never a "huge" fan of the Arkham series, mostly due to its basic combat system and endless amounts of "fluff" (small tasks where you just push a single button). And this game isn't much different in that regard. However, I still very much enjoy all these games.

    I was never a "huge" fan of the Arkham series, mostly due to its basic combat system and endless amounts of "fluff" (small tasks where you just push a single button). And this game isn't much different in that regard.

    However, I still very much enjoy all these games. Adventuring throughout Gotham is always fun, and the Metroidvania-like missions are always exciting, with a mysterious and thriller-like tone.

    The reason why I consider this the weakest in the trilogy (ignoring Origins) is because of two reasons: The BatmoTank, and the story.

    BatmoTank is the most talked about critique in the game, but with good reason. It always slows down your enjoyment of the game, as you have to stop, shoot robotic tanks, drive, and repeat. The problem is not necessarily that it's not fun, but rather how repetitive the mission is.

    And the story... it's good in concept, but in the context of the games, it feels very out of place and predictable. Furthermore, the side-mission storylines are nothing to ride home about either, with unfulfilling resolutions and forgettable storylines. The main storyline is still dramatic and good, just predictable.

    Though overall, the game is still filled with enjoyment, with some of the best graphics that even today's games (Jan 2023) cannot compete with, along with fun missions and the best side character in all of gaming (I won't spoil it, but you'll know who. They're there throughout most the game.)    … Expand

    This game is in some ways an excellent game. Combat and visuals are both excellent. Some great moments throughout the game. The Harley Quinn level is a noticeable highpoint of the video game with its excellent bosses and level design. The story is a downgrade from the previous games as it is very silly when it is trying to be serious.

    It is incredible how still in 2022 this game holds up, it looks better, and it plays better than Gotham Knights even on the PS4.

While it has minor flaws, AKA "Tank Battles", it is still a great game from its combat flow to gadgets, the Batmobile and its combat, the story, side content, characters and overall visuals...it really immerses you.
    What I loved doing with the Batman games is staying up all night and trying to finish the story in one playthrough, and when a game influences me like this one that's how you know it's an outstanding game.

    Combat - 10/10 (Fast, Brutal, and Satisfying)
    Visuals - 10/10 (If it looks better than Gotham Knights...)
    Story - 9/10 (Really great, a little lengthy and some smaller sections are a little dry)
    Polish and Quality - 10/10 (I have never seen a crash or a glitch on the PS4)

    Rocksteady did a great job with this one and while the story is not up to the standards of Arkham City(of course), it is still an amazing piece of gaming history to play, it's entertaining, interesting and satisfying all the way through. Everyone is waiting for a Next Gen Batman game meanwhile it already came and left. As always I have to consider the consumer in what they might think, those that are not familiar with the Arkham games may not like this at all, I understand that perspective, but as a long-time fan of the caped crusader and my first game being Arkham City, I was introduced to a franchise I'd only dreamt of as a kid.

    Hopefully one day in the future, Rocksteady will make a Sequel that surpasses all expectations, maybe an older batman, maybe a younger Batman(Damien Wayne) or maybe a hmm.., well I shouldn't talk about that.

    When that day comes, I hope I live to play it (maybe I might help make it, who knows).    … Expand

    for me is the best batman game, better than city, or any other. The way that joker talk with batman, making funny of him is just... so funny. The relationship of Alfred and batman is like dad and son, and sometimes the game makes jumpscares, and after the scare, it's so funny. But sometimes the game is boring, like in the mission of the cloudburst tank. Anyway, this game is awesome

The graphics and details put into the designing of Gotham City are absolutely gorgeous. It gives off 60's era vibes but in a darker alternate dimension. The combat is probably the best I've played in a free roam fighting game with you being able to use so many different gadgets and combos to take down enemies. Each fight is something different, being easy and fun, yet challenging at the same time. The story was great in my opinion featuring just about all Batman characters and a variety of missions while also giving them each a role to play in the game such as even the Joker who died in the previous installments. I think even if you're not a hardcore Batman fan, you will enjoy this game!… Expand

    There's a lot to say about arkham knight want to keep it short tbh. Fantastic free flow combat (Best in the series), Amazing visuals and graphics, A great open world but would've been nice if it was bigger since it's the last game, Weak story and batmobile is overused, a satisfying ending to conclude the arkham games.

    It delivers an engaging story that, building on past plotlines, dives into the psyche of its main characters with compelling pathos. Combat, as usual, is enjoyably fluid but contentutistically shallow, and the game lacks Arkham City’s intriguing boss-fights to make up for it, but on the other hand stealth improved tremendously thanks to way more strategic options and diverse threats.

    Let me start out by saying that I love the character of Batman and correspondingly love previous installments in the Arkham franchise. Admittedly, I have not played Origins, but Asylum is a solid 9/10 and City is a 10/10.

Admittedly, I have not played Origins, but Asylum is a solid 9/10 and City is a 10/10.

    And the reason I love these games boils down to one word: freedom. In Asylum, we were given the blueprint to something extraordinary. A Batman game where you could take down a room chock full of thugs in a way completely dependent on your play style: you could go in guns blazing, never stopping to counter and consistently looking to land the next critical strike; you could play as meticulous evader who waits for the opening and takes down the opponents slowly and steadily; or you could integrate Batman's multitude of gadgets into your fight. The predator encounters also presented us with something special, giving us the freedom to plan out our attacks against armed thugs in different ways after scanning the room. Of course, there were certainly some challenges presented in this game where there was only one way to get it done, but we justifiably excused those instances on the account of Arkham Asylum showing us something truly original, something that truly, dare I say it, made me feel like Batman.

    City took the mechanics of Asylum even further, presenting players with a slew of enhancements to the combat and predator challenges. Quickfire gadgets, new gadget upgrades, new takedown moves, and new gliding mechanics set the benchmark for Batman even higher. With all of these new tools at our disposal, we, as players, had a plethora of ways to approach any given hostile situation. Will you perch on top of a building, throw a freeze grenade blast, and lock a group of thugs in place all at once before picking each off one-by-one? Will you dive bomb in for shockwave attack, stun everybody and then take them out with critical strikes? Will you use sonic batarangs to knock them out one by one? Or will you simply walk up to the group and take them out with nothing but your fists? You, as the player, got to choose how to approach such situations, and that's what made the game so memorable and fun. The Mr. Freeze fight is a standout example of a fan-favorite boss because you have so much freedom with which to take him down. There are many different ways to lower his health that can all be done in many different sequences anywhere in the boss arena.

    To an extent, Knight does extend some aspects of the predator and combat challenges. We get the fear multi-takedown, my favorite addition to the game, along with new gadgets and takedowns (such as the environmental and team takedowns) for batman to integrate into his fights. But unfortunately, these segments do not make up the majority of the game. Instead the majority of the game is dominated by one tool: the Batmobile.

    Now, people have harped about the inclusion of the Batmobile in this game for years, but I don't think I've ever seen someone truly explain why it is that people were so frustrated with its addition. The frustration, from my perspective, comes down to the idea of freedom. There is only one way to defeat a Cobra tank: sneak behind it and shoot it in the Batmobile. There is only one way to solve all of the main story puzzles that let you infiltrate buildings with your Batmobile. There is only one way to catch speeding vehicles that you need to pursue: in the Batmobile. What if I wanted to take the vehicle our from the skies, jump down on it like a terrifying creature of the night? What if I wanted to plan the vehicle's route and set up a trap for it? It was not Rocksteady's inclusion of the Batmobile that angered fans but simply the fact that the vehicle takes away so much freedom from the player by only allowing things to play out in one way. This, coupled with the fact that you cannot seem to go even a single mission through the game without needing to use the Batmobile is what led to the discontent.

    In my perspective, while Knight is not as good as Asylum or City, it is still a game worth playing for Batman fans even if by the end of the game, I felt less like Batman and more like a target of army propaganda.    … Expand

    Second, you guys who are saying this game sucks for nonchalant reasons: have you actually played the game? Play through it before writing a review, please. And I mean all the way through the campaign.

    Third and final, a lot of people are complaining and whining about the Batmobile and the fact that this game out too early. I find this funny because these are the same people who whined and complained about the Batmobile not being in the other games and the fact that Arkham Knight was pushed back not once, not twice, but FOUR times. Rocksteady read has done everything they can to make this work and you guys just come here and complain about it? If I was Rocksteady, I would honestly just stop making games all together for you people.

    Now, this is a message to everyone. If you're thinking about not buying the game because of some lousy reviews, please get the game. Seriously, don't let someone else's opinion decide whether you are going to buy a game or not. If you WANT to play it, then get it! It doesn't matter what others are saying, because who cares! When it comes to gaming, the only thing that matters is YOUR opinion!

    Anywho, sorry for all the ranting, but people just need to be told. This game is great, it is everything I was hoping for in the Batman finale, and it has blown me away on every scale. I am terrible sorry for those who did not enjoy it, but maybe those are the same people who enjoy CoD. Who knows? But wow, Arkham Knight took my breath away. It is predictable, yes, but does that ruin the game!? Heck no! It actually helps if you try not to think about it. Just play the game and enjoy it! But yes, the gameplay is flawless, graphics are stunning, story is on point, and the sound is great. Even the characters are wonderful. Come on: it's the same batman game we've been with since Arkham Asylum. Only this time, it's a lot bigger than Asylum and a lot more addicting then City. This game is beyond amazing. It never disappoints me tbh. And to all the Batmobile haters: I love driving it around. I don't care if it's forced on me, I'm going to drive it for fun because it's just THAT cool. I love it. Maybe add the Batwing next? Overall, amazing game and I recommend this title to everyone.

For example, instead of fighting Deathstroke one-on-one like Batman Arkham Origins. We fought in the car and finally when we destroyed the death stroke tank we knocked him unconscious with one punch so I don't think anyone will be satisfied with this boss fight that has lost its potential.

    Probably my least favourite of the series, did not enjoy it, found that after about 10 mins the batmobile got boring. Certain missions were annoying and irrelevant, The Riddlers voice just irritated me, Azrael was pointless. The Joker showing up after dying seemed stupid PLUS the indentity of the Arkham Knight was spoiled almost immediately.

    I find him unique in his kind of him, mainly because he has nothing that makes him invulnerable to a bullet, punch or fall. He is human. Here lies the greatness of Batman: in his being superior to others he is still human. He has a willpower that has no equal, an incorruptible belief, a code to be respected that often leads him to the end of his strength.

    This game is the culmination of a journey that includes two previous chapters in which we see a Batman who remains increasingly marked by the events that see him involved, before the death of his mentor Ra's al Ghul and his lover Talia, to end with the death of his quintessential antagonist, the Joker.
    It may seem counterintuitive but Batman wouldn't be what he is without the Joker, he needs him, because he encompasses everything Batman is Batman for: order versus chaos, justice versus injustice. In Arkham Knight, Batman is no longer what he used to be: he is more evil, violent, cold and blinded.
    All these sensations can be perceived by the player through the controller and you realize the power that you have in your hands.

    In addition to this perdition, Batman has to deal with Scarecrow who wants to flood the city with fear but at the same time come to terms with his past. A painful past that he thought he had buried, a son believed to be lost forever. This will be the last major effort the Dark Knight will have to make to restore order to Gotham for the umpteenth time.

    Gotham can be explored far and wide, from the lowest slums to the main skyscrapers of the Wayne Tower, whizzing with the noisy and thundering Batmobile or gliding between one skyscraper and another, constantly accompanied by a suffocating rain almost as if it symbolised all the lives that depend on Batman, hanging by a thread.

    I could stay here for hours and hours talking about this game but I would do nothing but ruin an experience that must be lived firsthand. Thanks to Rocksteady for making a dream come true that until now it was only possible to appreciate in comics.

    I think the best sentence that fully encompasses what Batman is the following: 'when that symbol appears in the sky, it is not only a signal but it is also a tool of fear, because I am vengeance, I am the night, I am Batman.'    … Expand

    This is my favourite game in the Batman: Arkham series for its amazing combat that is the best in the series, the graphics, and the map. The story, while maybe not reaching the highest heights of Batman: Arkham City, still has very good moments, and I can honestly say that, while it got a bit annoying over time, I didn't completely hate the Batmobile - 9.5/10.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. El Caballero Definitivo
    Pensaba que ya lo había analizado cuando me lo pasé la primera vez en 2015, y echando de menos la saga, me hice con Batman Return to Arkham y gracias al plus he vuelto a jugar y me he pasado de nuevo Batman Arkham Knight.

    Si nos ponemos a mirar atrás, es verdad que sus antecesores son mejores en cuanto argumento, pero jugablemente y gráficamente este es el mejor Batman Arkham hasta la fecha, el más completo y el que mejor luce.

    Tras la muerte del Joker, la ciudad estuvo muy tranquila, pero con la llegada del Espantapájaros todo cambió, liberó una toxina por Gotham y desató el caos en la ciudad. A día de hoy los villanos campan a sus anchas por la ciudad sin nadie que les moleste con sus actividades criminales y se han unido para acabar de una vez por todas con Batman.

    Nuestro objetivo es poner orden en la ciudad para que la policía vuelva a tomar el control de Gotham, ya que toda la ciudad está vigilada por tanques, helicópteros, etc del Caballero de Arkham (personaje del que hablaremos más tarde) y detener al Espantapájaros antes de que destruya más la ciudad.

    Conforme vayamos avanzando, veremos que se ha unido un nuevo villano al Espantapájaros, llamado el caballero de Arkham, el cuál tiene a su disposición una milicia fuertemente armada y adiestrada para darnos caza. Además tenemos una gran desventaja para combatir a Arkham Knight, pues conoce todos nuestros trucos, nuestras debilidades y nuestro sistema de lucha. Tendremos que investigar y estudiar como hacerle frente a él y a su milicia y averiguar quién se esconde tras esa máscara.

    En cuánto a gadgets y sistema de combate, es el Batman más completo hasta la fecha. Podremos piratear las armas de los enemigos para causarles una descarga eléctrica, gadget que nos viene muy bien para los soldados que pueden localizarnos con un escáner. También tendremos un sintetizador de voz para hacernos pasar por Harley Quinn o el Caballero de Arkham para tender trampas a sus esbirros. También podremos piratear drones, escaleras mecánicas y el entorno para usarlos a nuestro favor. Realizando eliminaciones silenciosas también tendremos la novedad de activar la eliminación múltiple, sistema que nos permite acabar con hasta 3 enemigos a la vez. Y a todo esto hay que sumar el punto fuerte del juego, el uso de Batmóvil, el cuál también podremos usar en combate. Al igual que Arkham City, en combate podremos usar el gel explosivo, la batgarra y la descarga eléctrica, y cómo novedad, además del uso de Batmóvil, podremos utilizar el entorno para realizar eliminaciones, como lámparas, focos, cuadros eléctricos, tuberías de ventilación... Con lo que se podría decir que en innovación y jugabilidad las 5 estrellas las tiene más que merecidas. El sonido es bueno pero tampoco nada destacable.

    A parte de la campaña, tendremos multitud de misiones secundarias, como investigar crímenes para dar con el asesino, salvar rehenes de las manos de Ridler, así como resolver sus acertijos, dar caza a los más buscados, acabar con las zonas de vigilancia de la milicia, los simuladores de combate y conducción, etc. A todo esto hay que sumar sus expansiones, las cuáles completan la historia.

    Conducir a toda velocidad el Batmóvil por la ciudad de Gotham no tiene precio, así como acabar con los tanques de la milicia con nuestro gran armamento, el cuál podremos ir mejorando conforme vayamos avanzando en la historia.

    Conclusión. Un juego muy rico en historia, con una gran campaña y muchas más horas de juego si queremos completar al 100% el juego, además de sus grandes expansiones. El Batman más definitivo en cuanto a sistema de lucha y opciones de eliminación de depredador. El Batman que mejor luce. Imprescindible para todo fan de Batman.    … Expand

    The game has very good graphics and the gameplay is attractive and diverse. But sometimes, there is no guidance in the difficult stages and it takes a long time to solve the problem

    Batman: Arkham Knight thrusts players into a chaotic and visually stunning Gotham City, depicting a metropolis on the brink of destruction. While the game polishes the mechanics of its predecessors to perfection, it falls short in providing significant innovation to the hand-to-hand combat, stealth, and boss fight elements that were already exceptional. The addition of the infamousBatman: Arkham Knight thrusts players into a chaotic and visually stunning Gotham City, depicting a metropolis on the brink of destruction. While the game polishes the mechanics of its predecessors to perfection, it falls short in providing significant innovation to the hand-to-hand combat, stealth, and boss fight elements that were already exceptional. The addition of the infamous Batmobile, while well-executed and a welcome inclusion, overshadows other crucial gameplay aspects, leading to repetitive and lackluster experiences. However, the story brilliantly delves into the culmination of Batman's journey, exploring his internal struggles through encounters with haunting figures from his past, including Scarecrow, the Arkham Knight, and even the enigmatic presence of the deceased Joker. It's a final dance with familiar allies and adversaries that delivers a fitting conclusion to the Dark Knight's saga.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don't have any words to describe this game it made me cry when I finished it shows you how to keep going no matter how exhausted is your body. The history is good telled but I felt like I need some variety of enemies like Killer Croc, Mr.frezze or even Bane cause al the game was involved by 5 or 6 villians. Dlc's are a very good resource of information about the game and how the characters started being superheroes or villian. For me is one of the most difficult superhero games of all time cause you fell like Batman no matter how much armor you have you are still a human. You have fellings, friends and something to protect. When you see how Gotham is destroyed you fell guilty for not being able to protect it… Expand

    This game is really excellent. It's a very successful game from its action to its dialogues. This was my favorite batman game. The second was arkham city.
    If you just want to go from the story mode, it still provides a satisfying experience. But don't delete it before you do the side missions and finish the game.

    A great game without a doubt. The fact that it's open world and yet the combat and investigation scenes are very good. Everything is very well done and a fantastic story with the involvement of the best Batman characters, ah and the involvement of the car which was very good.

    My Review of the game:
    Script: Good old Dc Script following the Asylum and City games, with a great plot twist.
    Gameplay: one of the best ones
    Dificultie: Bad choice, the hard mode isn't hard at all
    Its one of the bests Batman games, my chosen one still the Arkham City.
    You need to play this game, go forward.

    It continues the story of the previous part with a great improvement in the combat system with an excellent and very good story. You will face all of Batman's enemies.

    Batman: Arkham Knight presents a technically proficient and overall satisfying ending to the Arkham series, but suffers from overuse of the novelty item Batmobile and extremely repetitive tank battles. [Aug 2015]

    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.
