Batman enters Arkham City the new home for the most outrageous criminals and psychotic criminals run amok. The city has become a prison with each section of the prison transformed to bear the signature of the villains controlling it. For example, The Joker lies within a Carnival, The Penguin nests in a museum and Two-Face in a courtroom. This is a well crafted game making it into a bigger open world facing many leads through a mystery plot that goes through great character moments until the unforgettable conclusion.
Arkham City does an incredible job showing off the cape crusader’s ability to switch between combatant, predator and detective. The new glide mechanic now has a dive bomb move that extends his flight speed and distance, improving the navigation of the city much easier and helps insist with combat and the grappling hook. The combat hasn’t completely changed by has been improved allowing Batman to attack different enemies in new ways, such as stun, longer assaults and enemy down attacks. Batman’s countering system makes him more diverse countering many enemies at the same time, starting with a kick to the face, to a punch to the head and then smashing to heads together. Thus, making Batman a far more agile and punishable combatant.
Aside from the main story the side missions offer more variety across the city that is mapped out to specific villains. For example, finding Mr. Freezes wife or following the murders of Deadshot. The side content does help players to extend their time on exploring the Arkham City experience. Also in this game the player can explore the city as Catwoman, her story intertwines with Batman’s, yet it is a little part of it, but still enjoyable. She has her own moves to attack or interact with the city using her claws or whip. Plus, I like that Rocksteady gave her, her own story/side missions and challenges to allow the player to spend time using Catwomen and not just making her an add-in.
In conclusion, the game is astonishing as it stands tall towards its predecessor bringing out the greatest of Batman’s moments. The city is very detailed with dark areas and architecture that shows off the villainous environments. The famous Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill never disappoint making the characters classic interactions come to life. The combat is very fluid making Batman’s maneuverability in the open world very impressive. Batman Arkham City is defiantly one of the best video games that Rocksteady Studios has released.
