Customer Ratings & Reviews

I wanted another superhero game to scratch the itch after beating Spiderman so I decided to pick up Arkham Knight after skipping it on release. Unfortunately, Batman isn't as enjoyable to play as he used to be. Combat and traversal are clunky compared to Spiderman, and the tank combat in the Batmobile is never fun. If you feel the need to play as Batman again, I would recommend just going back to Arkham City.

Having played the other games in the Arkham series, I was seriously looking forward to this game and came away pretty satisfied. The game was visually stunning and the combat and world traversal was better than ever. I really liked the new Team Play mechanic that lets you fight alongside characters such as Robin and Catwoman. Riding around in the new Batmobile was an awesome experience, but proved to be a mixed blessing. I felt that the developers tried to shoehorn the Batmobile combat into too much of the game. Many of the main missions and side missions revolve around shooting tanks with your Batmobile weapons. While the first few are good, it starts getting old towards the end of the game. The overuse of the Batmobile was probably my biggest issue with this game. Although not my favorite game in the series (that honor goes to Arkham City) it's definitely still worth playing.

Played this game after finishing Spiderman so I couldnt give it a fair shake because Spiderman was so great

Arkham Knight was fun however, I felt that the Batmobile was too shoe horned into this game. The graphics and story were great. It's worth a play through however, I would try to rent it if possible.

I honestly do not know how they continue to one up themselves with each Batman game. I read other reviews make mention of repetition but all games that are sequels tend to do this in game play, but the story line is always captivating, and I will be honest at first the Batmobile was very difficult to maneuver and I was not satisfied with how it was what I thought was difficult. After a couple days play the Batmobile is one of the favorite parts of the game to me now.

This game is so good I bought it twice :) After I finished the game I loaned it out and it was accidentally broken. Even though I was done with everything I picked up a second copy when Best Buy had a super sale on it. It's a perfect game though, even at full price. If you're at all familiar with the Arkham series, this is it. It's the culmination of all the great things the series was about. Great mechanics, stunning visuals, wonderful story. Get the game.

I didn't like this game. It was really boring and not something I would recommend for adults.

Unfortunately my 8 year old son was not able to get into this game.

Game was amazing, beat main story and side quests at 100% with only a few trophies left to possibly get and I only want more! I will be buying the season pass as the story was very entertaining, graphics are amazing and puzzles are so hard. Some puzzles had me stuck for hours trying to figure it out only to walk away from it a day or two then come back and figure it out finally. A+++ game!

Much better than the previous Batman game (Origins) and on par with City and Asylum. The main story is great and the side missions are fun and challenging. Loved playing as Catwoman and our characters too. Only slight downside was that although fun to drive the bat-mobile, and fly in and out of it, some of the bat-mobile based missions were a little frustrating

Brought it for the double game and wasn't pleased. Wasted $!

Complicated review, even completely discounting the DLC rip-off and the PC fiasco, because I hated the Batmobile so much. Only considering the PS4 game, it was a good but frustrating game. The graphics, voice acting, Batman combat, variety of things to do and open world were all great! BUT THE BATMOBILE WAS HORRIBLE. I REALLY WISH IT WAS IN THE GAME AND *REALLY* WISH IT WASN'T FORCED IN BOTH THE RIDDLER AND MAIN QUESTS. It was needed in like 30-40% of the game, which sucked. I really hated nearly everything about it and the it took a 9.5 to a 6, sadly.

When this game first came out my only complaint was the bare bones challenge mode. Since then, a lot of free updates has fixed the challenge mode, such as adding a character select option, letting you play as some of Rocksteady's best characters like Harley Quinn and Red Hood on almost any stage. But the campaign itself is arguably the best in the Arkham franchise. For me personally, I'd rate it higher than Asylum and Origins but tied with Arkham City. Gotham looks breathtaking, the graphics are some of the best anywhere, the combat has been fine tuned to perfection, the story has some amazing moments, and you finally get to drive the batmobile! Some may argue the batmobile is overused but I always found it to be great fun, especially during the puzzle solving bits. Last thing to note, with all the costume/batmobile DLC this game is now a Batman fans dream. Want to drive the 1989 Tim Burton batmobile in the Michael Keaton outfit? This game has you covered. Want to drive Nolan's Tumblr as Christian Bale's Batman? Check. Want to drive Snyder's batmobile as Ben Afflecks Batman? You got it. You're not gonna find that level of fanservice anywhere else!

The amount of content in this game is pretty impressive. In addition to the main story, there are TONS of side missions that will keep you going for a long time. The Batmobilie is pretty awesome, but handles very poorly. The voice acting is phenomenal and the combat is as fluid and fun as always. Definitely worth a playthrough.

With the final game Batman Arkham Knight Rocksteady really did try to add something interesting with the Batmobile which has some mixed results. For me it really depended on what I was doing randomly driving through Gotham was loads of fun but some of the missions involving it are difficult for various reasons I won't get too heavily into (spoiler potential is low but won't risk it). The problem I had was getting it to move in the way I needed it when needing to follow behind an enemy for an attack being tracked didn't help either but those were far more rare. As a rule when using it in battle it is a pretty straight forward straight, back, side to side in avoiding attacks and firing attack type thing with some bonus weapons you choose to upgrade throughout the game (your given all of them in the story in the end). Everything else is mostly the same and what you've come to expect with beating up various Batman villians and a solid combat system and I'm hesitant to get too deep due to spoiler issues. The good More of the same from earlier games such as overall fluid combat Decent enough story and it brings a solid end to the Rocksteady triology Non Batmobile Most Wanted missions weren't too bad Just fun to play The negative Riddler anything just like previous games I found him to be a very tedious boring exercise Complete ending requires all Most Wanted missions to be 100% Shorter ending seems to have mixed information (some get it at 7 most wanted others need 10 I needed 10) Batmobile steering is a mixed bag sometimes I had no issues what so ever other times it was an absolute nightmare I would have given the game a 4 1/2 if the option was there but it isn't so I gave it a 4. It's just unusually good. By the end of it all I had done I believe all but two or three Most Wanted mission paths.

I'm a huge fan of the Arkham series. The first one to hit PS4 met every expectation and delivered! The story is incredible and gets you hooked right away. The side missions are just as interesting and extend the gameplay time a considerable amount. Great voice acting, story, graphics, and control.

I believe this was made buy a different company than the original and it definitely shows. This was huge disappointment and not worth the money even at a discounted price.

While this game is not quite as good as Arkham City in my opinion, and does include a bit too much of the batmobile, the story, gameplay, mission variety, and new additions make this an excellent game worthy of purchase and provides for a great conclusion to the Arkham game series.

I had a fun time playing this game and have played Arkham Asylum, City and Origins. The story is interesting, but could be better. It felt like you could see what was going to happen, but there are some twist here and there. The batmobile is the big addition to this game and is what fun to drive around and use. The end of the game heavy focuses on that and is a huge dividing factor between players if they like it or not. Most people seem to feel that it is used to much in the end and turns a game that was about combat, strategy, detective work into tank combat. The combat is pretty good, but gets stale after the 30 times of use. I want to be batman and not a tank combat game. Most boss fights are through tank combat and using the batmobile. Also the true end of the game is locked behind getting all Riddlor trophies, which there is about 250 of them. Save yourself some time and watch the ending on Youtube. You get a smaller ending, if you don't do all side missions and Riddlor stuff. Other than those negatives the game is really fun. The combat is good. The graphics are very good. Gotham feels alive with a lot of side missions to do, which most of them are fun. Allies are fun to work with in the game. The game takes about 11 hours to complete, but would take about 19 hours if you do everything except Riddlor stuff. You will need to do some side missions to upgrade batman. You get experience for doing side missions. If you like the other Batman games you will like this, but maybe not as much. Still a good game.

This game is absolutely fantastic. I've waited so long for this so come out. The game has truly lived up to the hype. This is a must have for any gamer!!!! Graphics and Gameplay are Perfection. The question is though whats next for Rocksteady??? I hope a Green Arrow Series
