Batman Arkham City Review - Does It Still Hold Up?

lundi 11 mai 2026 • Durée 23:17

Batman Arkham City is one of the most beloved sequels in gaming history, but does Rocksteady's 2011 follow-up still hold up in 2026? In this episode, Lennon and David continue their Batman Arkham series with Arkham City to find out if the game that expanded Gotham into an open world super prison still delivers. They cover the layered story juggling Hugo Strange, the League of Assassins and the Joker, why the Batman and Joker dynamic remains the heart of the game despite the crowded rogues gallery, and whether Rocksteady threaded the needle with so many moving pieces. They also get into the expanded combat and gadgets, Catwoman as a playable character, the standout Mr. Freeze boss fight and its adaptive AI, the side content and how it handles iconic villains like Hush, Zsasz and Calendar Man without cluttering the main story, and whether the Joker's ending was the most shocking in gaming.

In this episode, Lennon and David kick off their Batman Arkham series with Arkham Asylum to find out if the game that defined the superhero genre still delivers. They cover the claustrophobic island setting, the free-flowing combat system and why almost no game has matched it since, the predator stealth sections, and why the Scarecrow sequences are still some of the most unsettling moments in gaming. They also get into Mark Hamill's Joker, Kevin Conroy's final legacy as Batman, Killer Croc's genuinely terrifying design, the Riddler trophies, Batman's questionable commitment to his no-killing rule, and the hidden Arkham City concept art Easter egg that the developers had to point players towards themselves.
