Summary

Batman: Arkham Knight brings the award-winning Arkham trilogy from Rocksteady Studios to its epic conclusion. Developed exclusively for New-Gen platforms, Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady's uniquely designed version of the Batmobile. The highly anticipated addition of this legendary vehicle, combined with the acclaimed gameplay of the Arkham series, offers gamers the ultimate and complete Batman experience as they tear through the streets and soar across the skyline of the entirety of Gotham City. In this explosive finale, Batman faces the ultimate threat against the city that he is sworn to protect, as Scarecrow returns to unite the super criminals of Gotham and destroy the Batman forever.

I'm beginning to think that Bruce Wayne and Batman are the same person

Amazing looking and feeling game, poor story execution and overused Batmobile brings it down

"Batman: Arkham Knight" is one of the best executed games off all time and is a great finish for the trilogy itself.
Starting off with the graphics, Arkham Knight seems to be something the modern AAA game industry is not able to achieve anymore and manages to look better than most newer games. instead of having modern lighting technology e.c., Batman Arkham is heavily flooded with particles, post fx and volumetric effects such as mist to make the game feel a lot more in motion and mysterious.
The art style of Batman Arkham also is at its peak with this game, profiting from the good graphics and also getting rid of the cartoon-themed UI, that the older games had, by using sci-fi, that fit the futuristic theme of Batmans equipment.
Combined with a overwhelmingly good composition every cutscene becomes a masterpiece of its own. Some sequences throughout the game are from a first person perspective and really interestingly used, as they mostly come in emotional scenes.
The Story is yet another reason, why Batman Arkham Knight should be considered of the greatest game of all time. It begins with a great entrance with great setup and a lot space for the implementation of villains. As the story goes on, Batman is pushed further and further against a wall and makes many decision that can be really understandable for the player or rather confusing. The Story ends with a satisfaying conclusion for everything and is a great finish for the trilogy.
In the open world of Arkham Knight, you also get to experience a lot of well-written side content, that includes many famous criminals from the Batman franchise, but also has its own interesting stories and challenges.
The Gameplay of Batman Arkham knight could win awards alone. This game has easily the best thought-out gameplay i have ever seen in a video game.
The introduction of a car is not just a cool gimmick in this game. It becomes a multifunctional tool and you have to use it all the time in the most insane and strange ways possible. For example, you can either drive through the city, fight with it, run over thugs, remotely control it, use it as a jump pad, climb with it, do some tricks, disarm bombs, use it as a portable sentry turret, escort people, hover over the ground for better movement, balance on top of buildings and use it as a shield. In summary, the car is pretty useful. And that is very important.
Because the game constantly switches from driving, to flying, to fighting, to stealthing, to solving puzzles fluidly and uses all of them, always, in every way possible without confusing you or making you you feel something is be out of place.
These are some of the things you can do as the Batman, but game does not only let you play the Batman. In fact, the game often lets you control other characters, which is another unusual move by the game as it lets you even control even control characters that fight against batman and tend ro commit crimes, which sometimes forces the player to basically fight himself.
I can recommend this game everyone who wants to have some cool action and a lot of fun, though i recommend playing the first games, so you can understand the story, which is worth the time spending.
