Virtual Reality

From the first moment you see your pointy ears casting a shadow onto the ground in front of you, Camouflaj invites you to say "I'm Batman." 2016's Arkham VR from Rocksteady was disappointingly brief, and it left me wanting a full-length game for a long time. Following Camouflaj's work on Iron Man VR, it's immediately clear that Arkham Shadow understands the assignment.

What follows is a compelling tale that's thoroughly gripped me as a Batman fan, and we find Gotham City besieged by the mysterious Rat King, whose followers threaten to execute them in a "Day of Wrath." While it's set before Asylum, Shadow can be played without prior knowledge of the series, though long-term fans may be pleased to find a few references to Origins throughout.
