Best Batman Games, Ranked

The Dark Knight once reigned supreme in the video game world, with a seemingly endless stream of new titles. Rocksteady's Batman Arkham series, in particular, revolutionized superhero gaming, setting a high bar that continues to influence the genre today.

But lately, Batman's video game presence has dwindled. A true standalone Batman game hasn't been released since 2017's The Enemy Within, and there's no word on when that might change. While comic book fans have plenty of new superhero games to anticipate, those craving a Batman experience will have to delve into the back catalog to find the best titles.

He featured prominently in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, though it's not strictly a Batman-centric game. More importantly, the Arkhamverse expanded with a new VR entry. This review has been updated to reflect this release, with a more detailed section added. We've also included additional images showcasing some of the best Batman games.
