Probably the best of the Arkham series due to how much effort Rocksteady put into about 80% of everything they can offer: the stakes get higher both in the plot and with in-game challenges as the game progresses, the side content is nothing to scoff at both in terms of volume and quality, and it looks just as good as if it came out today.

The inclusion of the Batmobile is probably its weakest point, ironically. Despite it being plastered on the promotional material and being the big new mechanic of the game, its uses are laughably sparse to the point you can play through most of the game and only use it when absolutely needed. Plus, this is the game where they put so much time into optional content that it comes across as a giant middle finger to completionists. I weep for whoever tries to 100% this series; Riddler Trophies probably haunt their nightmares.
