    With TWO new Batman-related games coming soon, what better time than to take a trip through the ENTIRE Batman Arkham Story, including supplementary materials like comics, movies, and books. Take a trip back through Bruce Wayne's life as vigilante Batman, from his unfortunate origins, to his untimely end.
    Sorry about "Assault on Arkham" in advance. I, like Batman, had to fight my own supervillain creating this video: Content ID.

      It's in the Arkhamverse, but deadshot in these games is from a different Earth. Earth-2 is where he is from. And I'm not 100% but I belive even tho basically every thing lines up with the Arkham games I think suicide squad is also a different Earth as well. In the game, they call it elseworlds. Think in season 1 when it drops next month it will have joker in it that looks nothing g like the ones in past games because he is from another Earth as well

    I love the Arkhamverse, I always see it as a realistic take on the Animated Series between the voices, the designs, architecture etc. Most the portrayals of the characters (Joker, Riddler, Freeze, Hugo Strange, Scarecrow, Croc etc) are my favorite interpretations of the villains! I loved the Bane we got in Origins however they dumbed him down for the rest of the series

      @Amritansh Mishra I guess we just got lucky. Games allow for things like having the *perfect* cast of characters, by that i mean you can literally copy paste a comic book to a game, a live action would have a lot of things that make things harder to produce. Also about the lucky part, Rocksteady and Insomniac were truly a one of a kind (or two in this case) to have made superhero games, you can see the heart that went into both games giving a faithful adaptation. Believe me when i say most superhero games don't give a good representation of the characters, take The Avengers game, Amazing spiderman 2 game or other Batman, Supes and Aquaman games.

      Tbf, I think that in the Arkham games the Robins aren’t as young as they are in things like comics and the Animated shows. They’re more like late teens to young adults, hence why it makes sense that she and Tim Drake might be the same age, since Tim maybe 5 years younger than her or less. Which would have him be recruited when he was like seventeen.

      ​@@nobodyinterestingyou Definitely not part of this universe, but I get what you're saying. All round, they could've done an after story.
      Hell, there was a cancelled game with Damien in a Batman Beyond style suit against aged villains from this timeline. Would've been better than what we've gotten since.. M
