The game that served as the end to Warner Bros. Games and Rocksteady Studios critically acclaimed Batman Arkham Trilogy of games was released at this time 8 years ago.
“Batman: Arkham Knight” was developed and released for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The game marks the end of the journey started by Bruce Wayne/ Batman following his experiences fighting The Joker and his rogues gallery during the events of Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, as he faces off a new threat in the form of the Scarecrow and the mysterious Arkham Knight and his army of soldiers and drones. Using a new high-tech Batsuit and a souped up Batmobile - Batman wages war to take back his city and beat his enemies while also battling personal demons inside him.
The game will once again see release for the Nintendo Switch as part of the recently announced Batman Arkham Trilogy coming this fall to the hybrid console.
With Michael Keaton back as Batman in theaters thanks to "The Flash", it's also time to celebrate yet another anniversary in the film that got him started as the Caped Crusader in the first place - Tim Burton's Batman!
Released in cinemas on June 23, 1989, "Batman" was literally a game changer in the superhero movie genre as much as it was bringing the character back to his darker roots. Featuring an all-star cast headlined by Jack Nicholson as The Joker, Keaton as Bruce Wayne/ Batman, and Kim Basinger as Vicky Vale, this film is a must watch and something that fans of The Dark Knight absolutely need to see. In fact it was because of this film and 1992's Batman Returns that made Michael Keaton such an iconic choice to play the DC Comics superhero, and his return in The Flash this year marks the first time in over thirty years he plays the character again - and he's still got it!
