Customer Ratings & Reviews

This game is probably the best in the series. With the ability to play as multiple players, drive the Batmobile, and both great storyline as well as side missions, the developers really outdid themselves with this game.

The atmosphere for this game is just awesome. It feels so dark and dirty the city feels almost like it's a character. If you like batman or open world games this is a no brainer. The only negative is that it relies a little too heavily on the batmobile. The summer drought is upon us so if you need a game to play get this, its great.

This game is definitely a stand out game from all the other Batman series. Definitely a lot of different storylines the mechanics and movement are very smooth. Can definitely be a challenge as well as just plain old fun

My kids like the game. Good graphics. Very fun to play

This game was 10 times better than Batman Arkham Origins. I feel like this game should have been the 3rd in the series. The DLC is incredible. I don't feel like I'm doing the same thing over and over again. It's just a fun game. I love playing with the Batmobile. The maps and skins are awesome. The missions are engaging as well.

This game is absolutely spectacular in every way except that in the beginning they ram the batmobile down your throat constantly. I was pretty irritated in the first hour or so because of this but it got way WAY better.

I couldn't wait until the morning to go pick up the game so I went opening night and started playing once I got home, what a great adventurous game with fun packed, with new gadgets and gismos, along with the BATMOBILE

Like Batman? Like Open world action games? If you answered one of these questions this game is for you. Tons of stuff to do in the world, and you get to play as batman. Tons of villains and Easter eggs for batman fans

Great game for mature age groups, that enjoy a action packed game with an iconic character. The people at DC, WB etc. Have done amazing job put the plays in the dark nights shoes, for a villain butt kicking adventure.

This games graphics are great (duh it's a ps4) anyways the game to me wasn't that short, compared to the other batman games. I'm not a full time gamer but I do love playing video games and finishing up the story.

If you've played the other Arkham games, you will definitely love this one! Great story telling, bat mobile, and Gotham is massive. There are a ton of side quests to do! The game had me from the beginning to the end!

I can't help it. Batman = lisper Christian Bale = epic meltdown caught on tape = makes me giggle. I digress. The game is beautiful to watch; however, the game play gets tedious. I wish the game saga could have ended more with a bang; it seems the series has run out of ingenuity, but it's good to see it through to the end.

Game play, great Story line, great Fun factor, great!

This game is tremendous. It is very long, has a good amount of content, provides an adequate challenge, is technically proficient, is beautiful to look at, and has a very engaging story. It is well worth the money.

Yes, even you will feel like BATMAN when you play this game... it actually is pretty awesome and I love the BATMOBILE, even the tank mode that some people have said is clunky. WHATEVER! IT'S A BATMAN TANK! COME ON!

This game is fun but can be challenging with the introduction of the powerful bat mobile. I like the game a lot. Two hours of time flies by once you get involved and try to advance through each challenge and level.

probably best graphics on console at the time of releaase. lots of gameplay to keep you entertained for hours. good value game with a good story. the new batmobile is pretty sweet once you get hang of the controls.

I've played the previous games and was looking forward to this game, seen it was only available on the New platforms so I upgraded to be able to play the game, it's pre try cool using the Batmobile thru the levels!

OMG! Best game of 2015…Graphics are great and it's easy to navigate through the episodes. I am a Mortal Combat fiend, however, Batman has come in and swooped up my attention. Buy this game if you are a true gammer.

When Batman: Arkham Asylum first released in 2009, it was a breath of fresh air. The superhero genre in gaming had been saturated with mediocre and unpolished titles that didn't take full advantage of their source material (not including the Spider-Man 2 movie game, of course). Rocksteady sought to change that with AA's innovative combat system, gripping story, gritty visuals and epic soundtrack. It was arguably the best adaptation of the Batman creative license since The Dark Knight. When Arkham City released in 2011, it expanded upon AA's gameplay by adding more depth to Freeflow/stealth combat, along with unique, playable characters, a larger city to explore and exciting boss battles. From a gameplay standpoint, it was a masterpiece. Story-wise, I felt that the game was convoluted and a bit messy. Overall, however, I still thought that it was a quality game and the ending was interesting. Arkham Origins was released in 2013, and was handled by a developer other than Rocksteady, so I won't comment on it. With that bit of background out of the way, enter Arkham Knight in 2015. Following up on the three previous entries, Rocksteady must have felt that the Arkham formula was getting old. To combat this, AK features the Batmobile, a highly anticipated feature that fans had been hounding for since Arkham City was announced. Unfortunately for me, I found these sections of the game to be excruciatingly tedious and frustrating, with the Batmobile controlling like a wet bar of soap. It doesn't help that you'll spend a great deal of the game driving around in the Batmobile and engaging in uninspired tank combat. Believe me when I say that the game tries to find every excuse to shoehorn the Batmobile into its gameplay, no matter how unnecessary or forced it may feel. Remember when Batman could easily bring down weakened walls with his Batclaw in previous entries? Well, I guess he must be suffering from amnesia this time because apparently only the Batmobile can do the job. After all, who wants to "Be the Batman" when you can "Be the Batmobile," right? As for stealth gameplay, it becomes laughably sparse and dumbed-down with the new Fear Multi-Takedown feature. Whereas you would have to usually pick off enemies individually or think outside the box to take multiple enemies down in previous entries, you can now take down up to five enemies with a few button presses and analog stick pushes. Even with new enemy types like the medics, you can actually target them with the Fear Multi-Takedown, which makes stealth encounters a calm breeze rather than a tense challenge. In addition to all this, there are virtually no boss battles to be found this time around, which is also a letdown since Rocksteady has already proven that they know how to handle boss battles. So at this point, you would think that maybe they just focused all of their creative energy into crafting a remarkable story, riiiight? Wrong. Rocksteady repeatedly mentioned in interviews and trailers that the Arkham Knight would be an entirely new character made specifically for this series. They were partially correct, until you see AK without the mask. When this does occur, you don't even feel surprised because you could see who it was, coming from a mile away. The game hints at AK's identity multiple times from the very start, so much so that it just spoils the surprise when it comes to the reveal. In addition, many of the actions taken by certain characters seem very, well, out-of-character for them. I did enjoy the last hour or so of the game, where Rocksteady exhibits one of their infamous "breaking the fourth wall" antics. Also, the original ending is palatable compared to the other two that you unlock by completing side missions and such, despite not providing any closure. Overall, Arkham Knight is a massively disappointing conclusion to what could've been a fairly flawless trilogy by Rocksteady. While there are some cool moments, like a surprise guest throughout the story and the new Dual Play feature (seamlessly switching between Batman and another playable character), these don't even begin to make up for the rest of the faults that Rocksteady makes along this rather bumpy ride. 4/10.
