My favorite game of the Arkham trilogy. Combat and predator sequences remain just as fun as in previous games, and even sport some minor improvements. The addition of the Batmobile was a welcome one, and in general it feels great to use. There is something magical about remote-piloting the Batmobile to sneak up on an unsuspecting gun emplacement or group of enemies blocking your path.

The biggest standout in this iteration is the story. I considered the story in the previous games adequate - it kept things moving, introduced fun characters and set up the action sequences. However, the story in this game is significantly more interesting - it gripped me from beginning to end and really delivered on its emotion moments. The twists were satisfying and exciting, and the storytelling and writing are top-notch. I felt like the ending didn't deliver as full a resolution as I had hoped, but it was still worth the ride.

Overall a great capstone for the series, very much worth playing.
