Summary

Game Description

Explore Arkham Asylum as Batman in an over-the-shoulder perspective and encounter iconic villains such as the Joker, Harley Quinn, Killer Croc, Penguin, Riddler, Scarecrow, Poison Ivy, Mr. Freeze, and others in this action adventure game. Arkham Asylum is built on the Unreal 3 Engine, so expect the gritty atmosphere of Arkham Asylum to be as twisted as the environments of BioShock. Use gadgets from Batman's arsenal to investigate a routine prison transfer gone awry and stop the villains from running loose in Gotham City.
