The Batman Arkham franchise has grown to become an extensive series with a timeline that glides its way through 5 mainline games, a handful of spin-offs, a plethora of tie-in comic books, a novel, a VR experience, and a movie. But how does everything tie together?
#Batman #ArkhamCity #ArkhamAsylum #SuicideSquad
This video breaks down the franchise chronologically, charting the story of Bruce Wayne’s alter ego of Batman from his origins, through to his supposed demise, and the rise of the Suicide Squad.
With Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League set to expand the Batman Arkham franchise, what better time to dive back into the gaming saga of the Dark Knight.

This series is the Michael Jordan of licensed video games, no matter how many come after it this would forever be the best. GOATed trilogy

@themadtitan7603 Год назад

100% agreed. I'm still blown away everytime I think back how utterly amazing of a job Rocksteady did with that series. It's why I partly wish Gotham Knights was an Arkham game done in its style.

@drayman101 Год назад

I've been so hoping for this as well, they could make some really awesome stuff too, especially if they resolve the events of the Suicide Squad game with the Justice League making it out alive, and have an older Superman still kicking around for Terry to meet after taking up the Bat-mantle, since they've made little mentions in several of the Arkham games about the blue-clad boyscout. They could continue the narrative and eventually make a side-series of the JLU storylines with Terry's Batman making an appearance, there's just so many cool places they could expand their Arkham-verse to.

@AnonymousEnigma19 Год назад

Let's be honest Batman Arkham Knight inspired the creation of the Batman who laughs.

@hermos3602 Год назад

The concept of Batman becoming Joker has been thing in the comics long before the Arkham games existed. So no, Arkham Knight didn't inspire the creation of the Batman who Laughs. It might've helped reignite the idea, but it was never the sole inspiration.

@AnonymousEnigma19 Год назад

@@hermos3602 dude no, I think I know the comics of which you speak, or at least some of them, one where Batman becomes Joker through a dr. Jekyll and mr. Hyde scenario, and the other one is where the Joker is attached to the back of his head, not one of these matches the creation of the Batman who laughs more than the scenario in Batman Arkham Knight, unless you know some please 🤨 educate me.

@tristanskywalker1998 Год назад

The only weird thing to me was making Tim Drake Robin in A Matter of Family. It takes place right before Barbara was paralyzed, which itself happened an unknown amount of time before Arkham Asylum. It would've made way more sense for Jason Todd to be Robin in that DLC, with Tim Drake not being Robin until the time gap between Asylum and City, since it was implied in Asylum that Batman didn't currently have a sidekick during the events of that game.

@Strangeminds38 Год назад

@oldacc19 Same animations as Tim Drake, they could use the skin used in the flashback cutscenes.

@iluhvpiink Год назад

Barbara was paralyzed a few months before asylum, and Jason was kidnapped about a year and a half to two years before asylum, however it still doesn’t make sense since Tim is considered ‘new’ in Arkham city. I don’t think they really thought the dlc through lol

@tristanskywalker1998 Год назад

@heartwings The easiest way to fix that would've been to just push back when the DLC takes place. It was pretty heavily hinted at before Arkham Knight that Batman didn't currently have a Robin during the events of Arkham Asylum, and that Tim Drake had not been Robin for a very long time during Arkham City, which both got retconned by A Matter of Family.

@iluhvpiink Год назад

@@tristanskywalker1998 yeah honestly the timeline is really weird lol, I don’t think the devs really had planned on making that dlc when asylum came out so that’s probably why it’s so messed up

Wish Origins was part of the Return to Arkham collection. Hey, wouldn't Cold Cold Heart be before Blackgate 🤔, Harley Quinn's Revenge also got skipped 😯 Blackgate wasn't my favorite and I totally got defeated in Initiation, and it reached the point where they wouldn't let me continue and expected me to start over. I basically just do Batman Arkham Origins, Cold Cold Heart, Batgirl a Matter of Family, Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, Harley Quinn's Revenge, the Harley Quinn episode, Arkham Knight and the rest of the Arkham Episodes. The comics and animated movie sound like something to check out I was disappointed that Mass Effect's Kimberly Brooks got recast as Barbara Gordon in Arkham Knight, but still enjoyed the game

Arkham Knight final Joker fight should have been made to last indefinitely. I wanna beat him up him all day. It should have been programmed to only end once you put him in the door frame of the chamber for the beatdown. But before you do you should have been able to beat him up indefinitely. I don't remember if you could or not. Could you? And it probably shouldn't have been so easy. A lil more competitive. Like have do at least a little more work to get Joker in that position to where you can beat him up all day. Have Joker fire his lapel and pull out a knife or a crowbar or something. Have him try to stuff you in the chamber or throw you over the rail. Something.

Correction: Batman did not “watch joker succumb to his illness in ice cold”. He was going to save him but then joker attacked him from behind and the test tube holding the cure fell to the ground breaking into pieces. So joker died and before that Batman said “The crazy thing is that with everything he has done he would have saved him” Then he carried him outside the gates of Arkham city.

I won't lie, I'm not excited for Suicide Squad. I don't like that it's adding the Justice League to the Arkhamverse. My favourite thing about the Arkhamverse was that - seemingly - it was just Bruce alone. He's the only hero, he fights his own villains that are still over the top, yet not "aliens controlling the most powerful League in the world" over the top. I was fine with Superman, Wonder Woman, Flash, etc. just not existing in this world, and their inclusion - even though it won't ruin the original series itself - might almost ruin Kevin Conroy's last appearance as the caped crusader for me.

@itachisenjux2675 Год назад

Dude, what are you talking about? They reference superman and other superheroes several times throughout the games like I just finished playing Arkham knight again and I specifically remember hearing the random guys on the street talk about Superman just without saying his name I believe they referred to him as an alien or something so the other heroes always existed in the universe. It’s just Batman clearly, didn’t interact with them.
