Batman: Arkham Shadow gameplay trailer swoops into view at Gamescom
radiotimes.comA brand new trailer for the upcoming Batman: Arkham Shadow has dropped at Gamescom.
It's the first gameplay trailer for the Meta Quest 3 title, and fans of the caped crusader will be delighted to know that the Arkham franchise isn't done yet.
We now know a lot more about this awesome VR Batman game, and it has a release window which isn't far away at all.
Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League left a bitter taste in many a mouth earlier this year, but the Arkham universe remains cherished among gamers.
Beginning with 2009's Arkham Asylum, the franchise is loved by fans and critics alike for its dark narratives, innovative gameplay, and awesome voice acting (especially from Mark Hamill and the late, great Kevin Conroy).
The second in the series, Arkham City, is regarded as one of the best games of all time, and the franchise has left the bar pretty high when it comes to superhero gaming adaptations.
The first VR game in the series was 2016's Batman: Arkham VR, released initially for the PlayStation VR.
As we have seen with tonight's announcement, the technology has progressed considerably since then. In the gameplay trailer, we see both combat and detective work in action.
Check it out below:
Batman: Arkham Shadow is being developed exclusively for the Meta Quest 3 Camouflaj and Oculus Studios, in partnership with Warner Bros Interactive Entertainment and DC.
The developers have the following to say: «Batman: Arkham Shadow will push Meta Quest 3 to its limits, giving players an up-close look at Gotham City and delivering an Arkham experience that will resonate with longtime fans.
»We’re very excited about this one, and can’t wait to get it in your hands come October."
