On Halloween night Scarecrow releases a new fear toxin over Gotham City and the evacuation begins. With the civilians gone and only criminals left behind, Batman is left holding a city that has already been given up on. Batman: Arkham Knight is Rocksteady Studios' final chapter in the Arkham trilogy, and it is the largest and most hostile Gotham the studio has built.
The Epic Conclusion to Rocksteady's Arkham Trilogy
The hit-and-run skirmishes of Batman: Arkham Asylum escalated into the devastating conspiracy of Batman: Arkham City, and Arkham Knight brings all-out war to the streets. Scarecrow returns to unite Gotham's super criminals behind a single purpose, which is to destroy the Batman forever. Beside him stands the Arkham Knight, a completely new and original character in the Batman universe, commanding a militia that fights like an occupying army rather than a street gang. Harley Quinn, The Penguin, Two-Face and the Riddler each press their own claim on the wreckage while the night runs down.
Introducing the Batmobile
The legendary vehicle arrives with a completely new and original design, a distinct visual appearance and a full range of on-board high-tech gadgetry. It is fully drivable throughout the game world and transforms from high speed pursuit mode to military grade battle mode, so a rooftop glide can end in a street chase and a street chase can end in a firefight without a break in the action. The Batmobile sits at the heart of the game's design, augmenting Batman in every respect: navigation, forensics, combat and puzzle solving all bend around it, creating a genuine and seamless sense of the union of man and machine.
Explore the Entirety of Gotham City
For the first time you have the opportunity to explore all of Gotham City in a completely open and free-roaming world. It is more than five times the size of Batman: Arkham City, and it carries the same intimate, hand-crafted attention to detail the Arkham games are known for. Rain-slick streets, elevated rail lines and the skyline above them are all yours to tear through or soar across, and the city reacts as the night gets worse.
Be The Batman
You become The World's Greatest Detective like never before, with signature features such as FreeFlow Combat, stealth, forensics and navigation all enhanced for the finale. The new gadgets while gliding ability lets you deploy batarangs, the grapnel gun or the line launcher mid-flight, and the utility belt is upgraded again with new tools that widen your range of forensic investigation, stealth incursion and combat skills. Most Wanted side missions run alongside the core story, so you can immerse yourself in the chaos erupting across the streets, hunt down individual criminal masterminds, or drive straight at the narrative.
