Batman Arkham Reboot: 10 Villains Who MUST Appear

7. KGBeast

Anatoli Knyazev, also known as KGBeast, recently proved himself one of Batman's most dangerous foes in the comics by shooting Dick Grayson in the head, nearly killing him and wiping all of his memories away. Batman was naturally furious over this and traveled deep into Siberian Russia to find him. He brutalized him and left him for dead in the snow, a move far more brutal than anything Batman usually does.

Including a villain who has been able to push Batman so close to breaking his moral code would be a great way to raise the stakes of the next game's story. Perhaps Knyazev could do something in the story of the game that sends Batman into a similar rage, pushing him farther than we've ever seen him go in the series? This would certainly be one of the series' most memorable scenes.

Knyazev also provides a very unique new kind of enemy for combat in the series, with his mechanical gun arm being a very lethal weapon. He is able to swap out parts of it, granting him access to a wide array of attacks. KGBeast could end up being one of the most distinct and difficult fights in the game, or even the whole series.
