DC's Batman once enjoyed a seemingly constant stream of new video games. The Dark Knight reigned supreme, and Rocksteady's contributions arguably launched a golden age for superhero games that continues to this day.
Lately, however, Batman's video game presence has dwindled. A true solo Batman adventure hasn't been released since 2017's The Enemy Within, with no announcements suggesting an imminent change. While comic book fans eagerly anticipate upcoming superhero titles, those yearning to don the cowl will need to explore the past to discover the best Batman games.
Updated December 23, 2024 by Mark Sammut: Despite a recent lull in new Batman games, 2024 proved surprisingly significant for the Caped Crusader. He appeared in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, though Rocksteady's offering isn't strictly a Batman game. The Arkhamverse, however, received a new VR installment. This entry has been updated to reflect that release. Additionally, image galleries have been added for several of the best Batman titles.
