Developer Rocksteady showed the world what AAA comic book games could be with their series of Batman games. They’ve largely sat out this generation however, releasing only Batman: Arkham Knight in 2015 followed by the much smaller in scope Batman: Arkham VR a year later. Several E3’s and Game Awards events have come and gone, with many anticipating…
Well, here’s a nice birthday present to me! One of the worst kept secrets as of late has finally been confirmed by publisher WB Games: Both Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City are being remastered on one disc in a package called Batman: Return to Arkham for both PS4 and Xbox One. Though it’s missing the rumored June 10th release…
In a “I can’t believe this hasn’t happened sooner” surprise, it looks like we may be getting a HD collection of last gen’s award winning Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City pretty soon. This comes from a leak from a GameStop employee who sent a picture to the Eurogamer website announcing the yet to be unveiled collection. Though missing…
The Batman: Arkham Knight post-launch DLC has been somewhat of a disappointment. While the Batgril: A Matter of Family episode was a welcome addition, bringing that character in the Arkham universe for the first time in a brand new area and the extra costumes have been nice, the stand-alone Arkahm Episodes have been a big let down. Despite being able to play as classic Batman…
It’s Christmas time and that means that 2015 is coming to a rapid close. With New Years just around the corner, it’s time to take a look back at the year that was 2015, and while admittedly there’s not much to talk about in the space of comic book video games, there’s still some awards…
With the release of yesterday’s December DLC, we’ve now reached the end of Batman: Arkham Knight’s post launch support. In that time we’ve gotten stand alone expansions starring alternate members of the Bat-Family, race tracks, challenge maps, costumes and Batmobile skins, all at a cost of course. There is one new Easter Egg that was revealed however,…
Just in time for the holidays, the last batch of 2015 DLC for Batman: Arkham Knight arrives to download on the 22nd of this month. Included in this update is the ability to play as some of The Dark Knight’s greatest foes like Killer Croc and Mister Freeze in the Season of Infamy pack, as well as the opportunity to…
After the extremely disappointing day one DLC that came with Batman: Arkham Knight, my optimism about the stand alone Batgirl DLC from WB Games Montreal, titled A Matter of Family, was understandably shaken. Both the Harley Quinn and Red Hood expansion packs were pretty pointless and added little to the story of the main game, let alone the Arkham series as…
For those who purchased the Batman: Arkham Knight Season Pass, August won’t see anything meaty like the Batgirl story DLC that launches today, but it still has some pretty neat stuff for hardcore Batman fans. The most interesting addition is the 1989 Batmobile pack which not only brings two new tracks inspired by Batman Returns, but a skin for…
Batman: Arkham Knight has been out for a week now and if you’re of the lucky people who have been playing it (sorry, PC folk….) it’s always nice to get a helping hand, especially given how big this game is. I’m sure there are people now who have finished the game up or are at varying…
