IGN UK writes: "Batman: Arkham Asylum redefines superhero games in the same way The Dark Knight set the bar for comic book movies. A bold statement indeed, but one that's justly deserved. Developer Rocksteady has breathed life into the Caped Crusader's universe with aplomb, tackling Gotham and its villainous underbelly with the same fresh - yet faithful - approach Chris Nolan did when rebooting the movie franchise. The result is not only one of the best comic book games ever made, but it's also one of the best games you're likely to play this year."

Discover the best Batman Arkham games ranked from Asylum to Knight, including Origins, VR and more, with a focus on combat, story, and world design.
