You can also access the challenges from the Batcave now- which is kind of like a hub. Of course, concept art, themes and character models are all valuable objects to unlock and everything seems to go towards 100%. There is a lot of content here and the new training challenges make up a small part of the mode, but they are surprisingly enjoyable and help you grasp the mechanics of the game if you're a newbie. The ranked challenges are fairly similar to their former counterparts, as are the campaign and custom challenges. Like the rest of the game, WB Montreal have stuck to the basics, but added their own spin on parts.

The challenge mode also returns and it's slightly expanded. This time they aren't much more than breakable/collectible objects, but the radio towers are perplexing, well thought out challenges that always end in you getting the reward of a fast travel point. Along with the side quests, there are also riddles returning. They usually end in a nice battle and incorporate plenty of cool investigation scenarios and combat sequences. The side missions return and they're better than ever, with each mission following a certain villain. Another win for the game is its amount of content. In fact, I'd say that this could be the best plot in the whole series- it certainly works and the climax is excellent. After Joker appears the whole plot just straightens out and everything seems to become so clear. His introduction is fairly ridiculous, but it is an excellent twist and one that works. Then a sudden smile spread across the screen as the Joker popped up. I was overwhelmed by the constant villain reveals and was prepared to write the game's story off. A young Riddler is messing around, Penguin is up to his old tricks, Deathstroke is keen for the money and Mad Hatter is even mucking around. After the effective beginning, we're off to Gotham City. Killer Croc, Bane, Deathstroke, Deadshot, Firefly, Lady Shiva, Electrocutioner and a female Copperhead are up to the task and the Bat is bracing for an epic night. Gang boss Black Mask has become tired of the hero and has set a 50 million dollar bounty on the Bat's head that eight assassins plan to acquire. The idea is that it's two years into Batman's career on a Christmas night. However, this won't be obvious to you when you first boot up. The strongest part of the game is its narrative. It's a chance that is definitely successful. Arkham Origins is a chance for WB Montreal to show us what they've got and it's also a chance to jump back into the Arkham universe and embrace the old mechanics before Knight swings around. They gave us a brilliant superhero game in the form of Arkham Asylum and then improved upon it in every way with City- which is widely considered to be the greatest licensed game of all time. Rocksteady have done this to please fans while they work on the series-ender Arkham Knight and at first, I wasn't sure if this would work. When you hand off your franchise to another studio, it's a hard move to make.

L 3 BATMAN ARKHAM CITY IMAGE SERIES
play it, for any Batman or gaming fan, its as good as the others if not better, with better boss fights, a bit more buggy and nothing else added to move the series forward. The things they have done well, they have improved on boss fights made them more interesting the story is better than the previous titles, however im finding it more of an effort to finish it rather than last years Arkham City, maybe because we have moved forward in terms of games, and so does the Arkham franchise as well. My opinion is they could have made this an epic game, by making more of an effort with the city, civilians and its surroundings, they could have added the Batmobile that would have been a nice feature and maybe mixed it up a little given you more choices. notice a few minor bugs when playing also was slightly less responsive when it comes to countering than last years Arkham City. My opinion is they could have made this an epic game, by making more of an Huge Batman Fan the game is good, but nothing amazing, we have done it all before and they have not innovated the series, same old formula which works fine, but its getting abit old now.
