“This time around, you are Batman,” reads an official description of the game.

“Land bone-crushing punches. Glide into hapless enemies. Retreat to the shadows. Camouflaj has reimagined the core Arkham experience for VR, drawing particular inspiration from Batman: Arkham Asylum and its intricate and interconnected level design. You’ll need to master all of Batman’s abilities in order to save Gotham City.

“Set between the events of Batman: Arkham Origins and Batman: Arkham Asylum, you’ll step into the shoes of a relatively young—and increasingly confident—Bruce Wayne as he takes on the Rat King, a dangerous new criminal with a cultish following.”

Batman: Arkham Shadow was announced in May, when it was confirmed to be a Meta Quest 3 exclusive.

It’s the second VR game to feature the Batman: Arkham name, after Batman: Arkham VR, which was released alongside the original PlayStation VR headset.
