Batman: Arkham City, the 2011 sequel, allow the player explore all of what Gotham city itself has to offer introducing more classic villains including Mr. Freeze, Two-Face and The Penguin. Rocksteady followed up its previous two games in 2015 with Batman: Arkham Knight, which has a transformable Batmobile you can drive through the open world.

The robust and intense combat sequences are a prominent feature in three games, whereas the stealth and puzzle mechanics offer a diverse gameplay experience. For those who have not yet indulged in these games and are admirers of the Dark Knight, they are certainly worth exploring. However, it is pertinent to mention that these games may be available at a reduced price on alternative platforms, at least for the foreseeable future.

Regardless, the Batman: Arkham Trilogy, whether one is a novice or a returning player, may serve as a means of passing time until the release of Rocksteady’s forthcoming game, Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League. Due to a negative response to an extensive gameplay preview, Rocksteady and WB Games have postponed the aforementioned title from May to February of the following year. The original release date for Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League was slated for 2022.
