10 Most Underrated Moments From The Batman: Arkham Video Games

5.The Ra's Al Ghul Sequence - Arkham City

One of the more interesting parts of Arkham City for someone not entirely versed in the Batman universe is undoubtedly Ra’s Al Ghul. It is a step away from the gritty, grounded sense of realism the series has. Saying that, there is Scarecrow. And a giant crocodile man. And a giant hulking zombie kept captive by a tiny penguin man. And a man living inside a cryogenic suit.

Maybe not as grounded as I thought.

But even then, the Ra’s Al Ghul sequence delves into the mystic side of the Batman universe drawing on the Lazarus Pits. The entire sequence is mind-blowing. From the trials in a dusty, desert ridden wasteland to a boss fight the jumps back and forth between real-life and fighting a twisted amalgamation of sand in the form of Ra’s, the sequence is brilliant.

Not to mention the fight is surprisingly hard and immensely satisfying when you finally best the head of the league of shadows, the immortal man trying to make Batman break his one rule. But of course, he doesn’t - he just lets Ra’s get impaled at the end of the game.

Classic Batman…
