Batman: Arkham Shadow Review - A Triumphant Return
Batman: Arkham Shadow Review - A Triumphant Return
Batman: Arkham Shadow is a triumphant return for the Dark Knight, expertly adapting the series for VR on Quest 3. Our full review.
From the first moment you see your pointy ears casting a shadow onto the ground in front of you, Camouflaj invites you to say "I'm Batman." 2016's Arkham VR from Rocksteady was disappointingly brief, and it left me wanting a full-length game for a long time. Following Camouflaj's work on Iron Man VR, it's immediately clear that Arkham Shadow understands the assignment.
What follows is a compelling tale that's thoroughly gripped me as a Batman fan, and we find Gotham City besieged by the mysterious Rat King, whose followers threaten to execute them in a "Day of Wrath." While it's set before Asylum, Shadow can be played without prior knowledge of the series, though long-term fans may be pleased to find a few references to Origins throughout.
How about review from a non biased outlet that didn't get a review code, early previews and invites to exclusive events for this?
Considering how niche VR is: is there such a thing?
Eurogamer has a review-in-progress up that seems similarly glowing with praise.
