Action/Adventure/Open World

You start out the game as Catwoman. It's pretty awesome. (SPOILER)also dat ass

This doesn't last very long, though, because moments later it's time to be Bruce Wayne in a brutal opening that has poor Bats all tied up in a chair and facing good ol' Hugo Strange:

I manage to make an escape and beat up a whole bunch of thugs as well as The Penguin despite being tied up and handcuffed. I get my batsuit delivered to me and now it's time to seriously kick ass and chew bubblegum.

My next stop is finding Catwoman, beating up Two Face but deciding not to kill him (I'm sure that won't come back to haunt me at all ) and doing some detective work.

And then it's off to flirt with Harley Quinn

Before promptly taking everyone out in a church

And smashing two guys into the ground in one move.

It's pretty good!

THE VERDICT:

  • It's a lot like the first
  • Good for Batman nerds or basically anyone who wants to be Bats
  • You can punch guys out from behind walls and stuff
  • And glide around
  • And hookshot like Link
  • And you get a move where you can summon bats to attack people
  • It's pretty great
