Superhero characters have always been a fan favorite among the comic book nerds. But the alter ego of millionaire Bruce Wayne has fans all over the world, you don’t have to be a comic book nerd to love Batman. DC found a larger audience pool outside the comic book world during 1960s serial Batman and ever since the character has its fan everywhere. Even in the gaming community, Batman is a fan favorite character. While some gamers were extremely happy and welcoming to the Batman games, some started gaming because of the character.
The protector of Gotham city has featured in over 60 games, console and computer combined. But just like any other long series, the series has its ups and downs. Not every game was a successful title with a promising game-play and storyline. There are some games that will be played even after 20 years and some that will be buried under trash. With so many available good and bad games around its hard to decide which games you want to play and which games you would like to avoid. So here I am finding you the best 5 Batman games of all time.
#5 Batman: Arkham Origin
Batman: Arkham Origin was the third game of the Arkham franchise. The game portrays a younger Batman fighting his way up through the criminal world to become the Dark Knight. Arkham origin offers you an expanded version of Gotham city. Arkham Origin also introduces an original prequel storyline set years before the events of Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City.
The game has a very strong and well-described storyline. For any Batman fan, the storyline is a very important thing in the Batman games. Batman games are just not another “Tekken” where we throw punches and beat up the opponents, Batman games portray the life and adventure of Batman.
The game features a messed up Christmas eve where 8 of the deadliest assassins and villains are trying to kill Batman. Players play as an early-career Batman as the Dark Knight fights with the deadly villains.
The enhanced detective mode is one of the best things in the game. Think like Batman, all new case-file system that allows players to investigate and analyze impossible to solve crimes. Players can reconstruct the crime scene digitally and study detailed simulation about the crime. The game has more unique gadgets for players to utilize.

There is 2 more games that I would like to mention as they surely make it to the list because of their own uniqueness. and consider them both as a bonus because they don't belong to any of the Batman series. The first one is not a Batman game, yes you heard me right yet it is qualified to be one of the best Batman games – #4 on our list -DC Universe Online (2011). It is not a Batman solo game but DC Universe online deserves a mention because only here you have the ability to create your own version of Batman. If you want to have the ability to run like Flash or sore through the air like Superman, you can. The #1 game on the list will be Batman: Arkham VR (2016). I mean what is better than playing a Batman game? Playing a Batman game in the virtual reality. Arkham VR really offers you to become the Dark Knight as you can interact with the environment, although most of the content of the game is taken from past Arkham games it is amazing to be the Batman regardless of the situation.
