Best Batman Games, Ranked

DC's Batman once enjoyed a prolific video game presence, seemingly receiving a new title every other year. Rocksteady's Batman Arkham series, in particular, revolutionized superhero gaming, setting a high bar that continues to influence the genre.

Yet, the Dark Knight's video game appearances have dwindled in recent years. A dedicated Batman title hasn't launched since 2017's The Enemy Within, and there's no immediate indication of that changing. While fans eagerly anticipate future superhero game releases, those craving a Batman experience must currently delve into the back catalog to find the best titles.

This article has been updated with expanded information on the VR title and added galleries showcasing some of the best Batman games.
