Important: Last minute Minimum Requirements Update
In Arkham Knight, you are playing as Batman in his Prime. Many of the gadgets and the gameplay elements from the previous Arkham games return, but as the most dangerous man on the earth, youve picked up a few new things since your last outing.
The "Disruptor" rifle can be used to disable or detonate enemy weapons and drone turrets, booby-trap weapon crates to shock enemies who attempt to arm themselves, and tag vehicles for Batman to track.
Batman can use some gadgets while gliding, such as batarangs or the line-launcher. Gliding has also been upgraded allowing for faster, longer sustained flights, steeper dives and higher climbs. The grapnel gun can now be used to instantly switch directions during a glide, as well as being fired twice while in the air to chain grapnel moves together.
Changes to the combat system include the ability to combine attacks on prone enemies without interrupting the streak. Batman can counter enemy attacks and throw them into other enemies for increased damage. Arkham Knight introduces the "Fear Takedown", where Batman can subdue up to three enemies simultaneously as long as he remains undetected; time is slowed after each take down, allowing the player to target the next enemy. Hazardous items within the area such as power generators can be integrated into combat for environmental attacks. The Goddamn Batman is also capable of disarming enemies wielding items like baseball bats and using the acquired weapon on several foes before it breaks.
Arkham Knight introduces "Dual Play", in which players can seamlessly switch control of Batman to one of his allies: Robin, Nightwing, or Catwoman while in Free Flow Combat. Each successful, uninterrupted attack adds to the players' combat score, which carries over between each controlled character, and unlocks double-team takedowns on opponents at higher scores.
- The City is available to the player from the start. No boundaries.
- Alternate outfits/skins are available right from the start. It's all in-game now so the outfit choices will carry over into cut-scenes.
- No loading screens while entering areas.
- New Game Plus. Unlocked after completing the main story. You can go in and take all of your previous XP, gadgets, abilities and Riddler trophies that youve unlocked so far.
For the first time in the Arkham series, we finally have access to the Batmobile. Batman has his 1 rule. His car doesn't.
This German-engineered, 1-billion dollar bulletproof TANK be summoned to the player's location at will while on foot, or airborne. While in the car, Batman can eject for a glide boost. Like Batman, the Batmobile can be upgraded with new abilities.
Also, some Riddler Trophies also feature objectives requiring the car. The vehicle features the ability to perform jumps, speed boosts, rotate on the spot, smash through obstacles and fire missiles that can immobilize enemy vehicles. The Car can also be controlled and driven remotely.
