For many years now, comic book and gaming fans alike have been awaiting a good Batman video game. There have been more than a few attempts at translating the dark justice from Batman comic book titles over to a video game platform.
While many of these past attempts have shown promise, none of them ever really seemed to deliver. Either the story left something to de desired, or the user interface was flawed. For some reason, it seemed that every time a Batman game neared release, hopes of finally becoming The Dark Knight on a gaming platform soared, only to be dashed because of flaws with the final product.
Those hopes may have finally been realized with the new release of Batman: Arkham Asylum by Rocksteady Games.

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.
