No escape from Arkham City…the sprawling mega-prison in the heart of Gotham City, home to its most violent thugs and infamous super villains. With the lives of the innocent at stake, only one man can save them and bring justice to the streets of Gotham City… Batman.
Developed by Rocksteady Studios, Batman: Arkham City builds upon the intense, atmospheric foundation of Batman: Arkham Asylum, sending players soaring into Arkham City, the new maximum security “home” for all of Gotham City’s thugs, gangsters and insane criminal masterminds. Set inside the heavily fortified walls of a sprawling district in the heart of Gotham City, this highly anticipated sequel introduces a brand‐new story that draws together a new all‐star cast of classic characters and murderous villains from the Batman universe, as well as a vast range of new and enhanced gameplay features to deliver the ultimate experience as the Dark Knight.

Better then most games
yhgsag | May 10, 2013 | See all yhgsag's reviews »Batman: Arkham City isn't perfect, but listing the little things I didn't like gets in the way of all the stuff I adored. The voice acting, the challenges, the amazing opening, the unbelievable ending and the feeling of being the Dark Knight -- these are the things that standout looking back. I've beaten this thing twice and still want to call in sick and chase Riddler Trophies.
Batman: Arkham City isn't just better than Batman: Arkham Asylum, it's better than most games on the market.

When you think it's over, theres still more!
TheDeathKiller | May 7, 2013 | See all TheDeathKiller's reviews »Loved Arkham Asylum so I knew I couldn't go wrong with this, everything is simply better than the first game, harder too. the bonus content is well worth the extra bit of cash.
The game can be a bit overwhelming at first but once you get in the flow and get used to beating the day lights out of all the cronies it becomes seriously fun, you can roam and explore as you wish to complete the Riddler's challenges or get familiar with the area or complete the side and story missions. sandbox with enough direction to keep you interested. Absolutely worth a buy.

WOO BATMAN!
lazygamer559 | May 5, 2013 | See all lazygamer559's reviews »Well this was my game of the year, after Arkham Asylum they had a lot of pressure to make a game as good, and they succeeded in making a better one.
Fantastic gameplay, punching people feels like your punching people. The combat is easy enough to pick up and can still be hard on game plus. Gamplay wise it's perfect I'd say.
This game looks really pretty if you can run it on very high or extreme. Only downside is that DirectX 11 lags for me no matter what I do.
It being a batman story meant that batman was going to "save the day". That asides though it was a very good, especially if you listen to the audio tape that you find for picking up Riddler's trpphies. It does a good job for making you feel more sorry for the villains rather then hate them.
Over all this is an amazing game, it's one of my favrote games of all time.

Great Game
DPiddy69 | April 30, 2013 | See all DPiddy69's reviews »I was really looking forward to this game after playing the hell out of Arkham Asylum. I was not disappointed. Not only did they bring back the constant cameo appearances from a variety of Batman villains, but they maintained the high standard of combat from the first game. The story is very rich and interactive and definitely worth a playthrough. New game plus also gives you another opportunity to play it, but with more challenges. The challenge maps are quite fun, as are the dlc. Excellent game.

Batman Fans, Buy This!
blacklightofday | April 27, 2013 | See all blacklightofday's reviews »Arkham City is a great open-world game with a lot to do in it. Whether you are trying to find out the mysteries of Arkham City in the main missions, speeding to answer the phones or someone dies, or just gliding around collecting riddler trophies, this game is going to keep you occupied for quite a while. And that's when not counting the different types of challenges, which also have leaderboards and the Harley's Revenge DLC, which add even more hours to what can be a very long adventure through the streets of Arkham. It can also be very short, but that would mena you are playing it wrong. Visuals are great, voice acting is top notch, and we get to see a lot of our favourite DC villains and heores (also some not-so-famous ones). Absolutely great game.
