The reason Batman: Arkham Asylum was so much better than previous superhero games is that other developers have treated them as “more of a kid’s property,” says Rocksteady’s Dax Ginn – whereas they are taking Arkham City just as seriously as the crew on Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight films.

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.
Rocksteady has hired a new game director that not only is an Assassin's Creed franchise veteran but even worked on the Batman Arkham games.
I wonder if ex Ubisoft employees put “worked on Assassins Creed” on their resume or not, as it would give an automatic red flag to avoid hiring them.
Unlike what we may personally think, most AC games have received generally favorable critical acclaim and managed enough commercial success to warrant an uncomfortable amount of sequels. 😂
A series which has sold over 200 million copies should be on your resume contrary to popular belief people doing the hire want to know if you have had success before
Plenty of gamers enjoyed Valhalla, Odyssey, Ezio's trilogy and the Origins. High critical acclaim and high sellers to boot. Get off your high horse.
The vast majority of the industry follow the Assassin's Creed template for open world games. The issue is fanboys wanna act blind to the fact that all the issues they have with AC are present in all the open world games made in the last decade. While also not having touched an AC game in that long.
It could be great! He worked as Design Director on Arkham: Origins & Game Director on Assassin’s Creed Mirage, Valhalla and Origins.
I think this is a great sign that Rocksteady is shifting back to a Single Player experience after Suicide Squad.That's reason enough for me to celebrate.
it'll be all fine and dandy until until the crime fighting due same gender relationships kick in lol
take out cat woman from batman AC and i will be able to talk you more seriously
actually I believe them... I only know a few good superhero games..
Please Rocksteady, make a serious spiderman game :)
Now, if only movie adaptations of video games were taken seriously...
True.
I long for a serious Spider-Man game. I mean I know Spider-Man loves wise cracking but his games could be a lot more serious.
Rocksteady proved that superhero games can be great,not just some cheap jumping around and fighting to boredom as it was before arkham asylum.
