Batman: Arkham Knight Reviews - 10 Early Critical Reactions You Need To See

2. It's The Ultimate Batman Story

"It takes every slice of meaningful media ever constructed around the man, and collates it into one of the single most important Batman stories ever told..." - Steve Farrelly, AusGamers.com "Arkham Knight is easily the most engaging story in the series €“ a tale that caters just as much to people seeking a high-octane, rock €˜em sock €˜em superhero war as it does those cerebral storyphiles looking for a jaw-dropping narrative." - Andrew Reiner, GameInformer.com

With some critics calling Arkham Knight's story " the benchmark for any other superhero game to come and it is absolutely a work of narrative art" it seems that Rocksteady has once again delved into the Dark Knight's massive 75-year history and mined a veritable corker of a story. Theories for Arkham Knight's identity have ranged from clones and resurrected sidekicks to cybernetic assassins, but whatever the case may be - it's safe to say that Rocksteady have delivered a Batman tale for the ages with enough surprises to keep players guessing all the way through. And while the identity of the game's titular villain may be the centerpiece, the best Batman stories have always come from diving under the cowl and dissecting the man's psyche - something that Rocksteady has reportedly done in grand fashion.
