Batman: Arkham trilogy officially returns in surprise new release

Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League paled in comparison to the Batman: Arkham trilogy.

I’m hardly being revolutionary when I say that Rocksteady totally missed the mark, although I do suspect that it was likely Warner Bros. that championed the development of a live-service game from the studio.

Thankfully, as confirmed by the shoddy ending of Suicide Squad, the Arkham trilogy’s iteration of Batman is still alive, offering a glimmer of hope.

That hope was then intensified last week when Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier reported that Rocksteady was now working on a new single-player Batman game.

Fair to say, it’s going to be a number of years before something publicly manifests, I’d imagine, but I do have something that may bring a smile to your face in the meantime.

For fans on PC, you can now enjoy the entirety of the Arkham trilogy with GeForce NOW cloud support, hurray.

On the lookout for something new to play? How about Avowed?

NVIDIA’s GeForce NOW is celebrating its fifth anniversary, and it’s doing so in style.

In partnership with Warner Bros. Games, the platform has now brought the acclaimed Batman: Arkham trilogy to the cloud.

That means that you can now experience Batman: Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition, Batman: Arkham City Game of the Year Edition, and Batman: Arkham Knight Premium without having to download the titles to your PC.

What’s even better though is that if you’re a NOW Ultimate member, you can enjoy the added benefit of experiencing these titles in 4K at 120fps, mamma mia.

It’s not all that’s arriving on the platform, with Sid Meier’s Civilization VII, Legacy: Steel & Sorcery, F1 Manager 2024, and Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered also receiving support, but it was Batman that drew you here.

Honestly, this sounds like a great way to replay the trilogy if that’s something you’ve been craving.

Of course, you can’t access this upgrade on console but let’s face it, the base games look fantastic anyway so it’s no major loss.
