Hello again guys. It has been a long time since i posted a post. This time i'm going to do something new. Besides of reviewing movies, i'm going to review some games on the blog. The first game i'm going to review for the blog is "Batman Arkham Knight". This game is the final trilogy of the Arkham series. I'm going to start the review, but before that, check out the gameplay trailer for the game right here :

Okay, let's start the review. The story is about Scarecrow who wants to terrorize Gotham with the virus and he's helped by some other villains like Two-Face, Penguin, Deathstroke and many more. In this game, there's a new villain who calls himself the Arkham Knight and he really hates Batman. The story seems easy to understand but as you play through the game, there are plot twists everywhere and i'm not going to spoil everything here.

I'm playing on the PS4, and the game looks amazing. From the environment to the enemies and NPC, they all look so detail and perfectly polished by Rocksteady. The next is the gameplay, for the one who played the Arkham series, the gameplay will be familiar with the fighting style and the gadgets. The difference is Rocksteady adding the "Fear Multi-Takedown" feature where you can directly takedown two enemies or more at once. Other than that, the flow of the game is more fast-paced than the previous Arkham games.

The other new feature in this game is, we can ride the Batmobile! I'm so excited when the Batmobile was announced in the game. I've been dreaming of cruising around Gotham with the Batmobile since the Arkham City and it really happens here! The unique feature of the Batmobile is it has a Battle Mode and it can fire machine guns and missiles as well. Using the Batmobile is exciting for the first time but it gets boring after i used it for a long time, but the Batmobile is a good additional to the game. 

There's so many things to do in Gotham. Besides the story, there's ton of side-missions to do, from rescuing the firefighters from the thugs, even to collecting Riddler's trophies scattered all around Gotham. And in those side-missions, there are some of them where we can play as Robin, Nightwing and Catwoman. Even when you already finishes the story, there's still so many things for you to do. So, don't sell it right away.

Overall, "Batman Arkham Knight"is well-made game and it treat the fans' disappointment on Batman: Arkham Knight. The graphics are amazing, fast-paced gameplay and the Batmobile feature makes it perfect.

Here are some screenshots (taken directly from the PS4) :
