@@immaculatebastard maybe, but that seems like an extraordinary leap, especially given the extreme backlash to Suicide Squad specifically in its comparisons to Arkham Knight. Why would they douse themselves in further gasoline whilst holding an active lighter in that way? It makes absolutely no sense.
RIP Kevin Conroy, he will always be the voice of Batman in my eyes. There was a reason why he was in so many of the DC animated and video game products. He was an iconic voice actor and when he was paired up with Mark Hamill's Joker we got some glorious content.
Arkham Knight pretty much surpassed that "Samaritan" tech demo that EPIC games made years before the PS4 and Xbox One came out in terms of visuals. Rocksteady squeezed every bit of graphical juice that UE3 had to offer.
This game came out in 2015?! That means this game is almost 10 years old! This game looks better than a good chunk of games coming out now. Truly insane.
I bet Arkham not only looks great but probably can run at some pretty high FPS as well! A lot of games around that time period absolutely slap graphically and are very well optimized! Some examples of gems of the past would be The Witcher 3 (2015 - now with next gen graphics upgrade as well), Starwars battlefront II (2017), Titanfall 2 (2016), Battlefield 1 (2016), Forza Horizon 4 (2018), and Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018).
I can still remember when the first review of Asylum came out - and it was so gushing that everyone thought that the reviewer was in the pocket of the publishers. And then the game came out and, well, the rest is history. It's the kind of game I wish I could forget everything I know about and have done, so that I could rediscover from scratch. I envy all of your viewers who will be discovering it for the first time!
@@darkscoutergamer6168 after it returnet it was cheap and sort of polished, gtx 1060 did the job I hope the suicide squad game is not as bad as it looks
I started to play this game but never finished it. Due to making space for other games, I think it's time to play it again. And great video as usual. Jack, keep up the great work, sir.
Jack, it's great to see you play Arkham Knight! All 4 games in the series are incredible Batman stories but Arkham Knight's gameplay was absolutely the best. I hope to see more videos from you playing this game and would love to see some predator challenges... I bet you'd be really good at them.
The new found love this game has gotten over the last year or so is so cool. I still jump into this game every now and then and still love it. A gem ahead of its time 🖤🦇
Next to Bioshock, the Arkham series is what go me back into single player games back in the early 2010's. There was something about that generation of single player games that I have yet to find that scratch that "itch". Such a great trilogy.
Fact. I've been replaying it with the new suit, but I wished they had added a performance mode for console, but other than that, this game still beats most games today.
i played this game a year ago, absoulute perfection. It even looks better than many new tgames with RTX and everythin. It´s just incredible how good it looks and well it plays
Despite being marred by a bad release on PC, it is one of the best games of all time. It is also still one of the best looking games ever made, and it looks worse on youtube than it does in game because youtube is terrible with the rain.
This is what I love about jack, he doesn't care what is popular right now, he just shows off what he enjoys playing and appreciates good games, even if they are relatively "old".
This game is genuinely one of the best games of all time, especially given the fact it came out in 2015 and still looks better than most games that have came out since...
I didn't think it would be possible to get better than Arkham City, but the addition of the batmobile was absolutely nuts. The Riddler trophies would keep me busy for hours. Few games have nailed the main/side quest dynamic as well as this one. The Easter eggs alone are enough to keep any Batman fanboy endlessly busy. They really did Batman right and this particular game was the pinnacle of the series.
Damn, hearing Kevin Conroy the first time in awhile is something special…Grew up to that voice coming out of my favorite Batman’s. Very comforting! RIP Kevin Conroy. Thanks Jack for reminding us about him.
I've played this game 3 times. And I still watchiend this video. Arkham Batman is THE Batman for me, and the whole series has a special place in my heart.
This IS and will be forever my favorite series. The only game series I wished never stopped. AA, AC, AO and AK all 200% still wanted more. Sad WB and Rocksteady went the other way.........
have been replaying the entire series in canon order (it is so damn good) and am so happy to get back to Arkham Knight. It feels so rare to play through a series and see how much better every iteration becomes.
Good on you for looking to the future and preparing your business/channel for the eventual changes that will be coming - can't imagine there's many doing much more than reactively producing content for the "current YT meta" - once again you prove how much you care about what you're doing and I love you for it :)
Yo I’ve been playing Arkham Knight for the past two weeks I’ve had the urge and I’m still loving it. Granted I’m on PS5 and my PC version is 2K. I just hope one day consoles get an upgrade some day 60 FPS that’s all I want for this game. Also I miss Kevin Conroy so much. He’s the GOAT. ❤
I love Arkham Knight ... so it pains me to say this as a DC baby...but Marvel Spiderman 1 (not 2) took the fighting mechanics to another level. I hope we get a new open world batman game soon. Bruce deserves a 10\10 game.
Watched the whole video in 4k on my tv, thinking I wasn't missing out. When you mentioned 8k again at the end, I flipped the switch and holy hell! MASSIVE difference. had to buy it again just now, excited to play through and finish it this time
This was top development the golden era of old engines, more than 5 years or experience with the same tools to exploit every bit of it. We are now on a new era of procedural of everything and AI characters and art, imagine what we can get five years from now.
I really enjoyed this style of video, informative and engaging and a great overview of a truly fantastic game! Hopefully more like this in 8k in the future.
The beginning of the game when Batman begins calling his Batmobile does his landing still gives me goosebumps of nostalgia R.I.P Kevin Conroy my favorite Batman ❤️ you will be forever missed
Maybe my favourite part of this game is how un-Ubisoft the side missions are. Usually a slowly revealing map with markers on every street ruins the experience. Not here though.
Jack that video looked beautiful! I knocked the res down to 1440 (my native) and the rain effects when you fly and whip around killing people just make it looks so muddy and blurry compared to the 8K. The only problem I had was the first time I loaded it was playing at like 10fps, quick refresh and it was fine. Looking forward to what else you do in 8K.
@@jackfrags I thought it was my computer not being able to handle it for a second but happily turning on hardware acceleration closed the browser and it was fine and then tried it again with it off and it stayed fine so guess it just needed the reload.
So glad people still appreciating this game, truly a masterpiece of a trilogy. Arkham origins just as fun but people don’t acknowledge it much! Thanks for the review so cool in 8k
i remember how i bought this game when rocksteady said that they'll give us all arkham games as an apology and i never regret my decision my favorite games of all time
This game.. SW Battlefront 2015, Battlefield 3, crysis, etc etc. All these games were ahead of their time. But nowadays we get games with graphics that look worse than the games mentioned above.. while we have way better and stronger tech.
It was so good to revisit this game, very impressive even today. Thanks for watching!
More Lethal company
was really fun to watch even today many years after it first came out
you should make more arkham knight videos
Prob one of my all time favourite games as a Batman fan 👍🏼
So recorded in 8k, exported in 4k and uploaded in 4k?
Game is BEAST
RIP KC ❤
I could've sworn this was a sponsored video but Jack must just really love this game.
For some reason it sounded like an E3 presentation, but in a good way.
100% this has to be sponsored. The voice over, the editing, making sure to mention about the new suit. It is what it is. Nothing necessarily wrong with that just hate it when jack makes a video you can obviously see through the reasoning for making the video.
Haha, who would be sponsoring it? Game launched a long time ago.

Yep, it is part of my Christmas tradition to watch Batman TAS;S1E2:Christmas with the Joker
In your ears, surely. 😉
So who could replace him or should his voice portrayed by AI be used from now on??
Being a UE3 game and looking this good is actually insane when you think about it
wasn’t battlefield 3 UE3?
@@dqena no, frostbite
highly detailed textures (not even high resolution) and lighting... Good lighting really works wonders for this game.
this blew my mind

Time fly by fast, 8 years... Played this game on launch. Feels like 3 years ago
Good times, I loved this game so much. Atmosphere is so thick you can cut it with a knife
dude, same…time flies…
Wasn't it really buggy at launch on PC?
@@Xilent1 not everyone plays on PC
2015 was when I bought PS4 and this was one of the first games I played on it. Damn...where did that time go indeed
This game came out in 2015?! That means this game is almost 10 years old! This game looks better than a good chunk of games coming out now. Truly insane.

Just shows you how gaming been declining for years.
@@theofficialkiller9657 unfortunately no. The game runs very badly on pc.
Good graphics are timeless.
The game has not aged a day ❤
Still boring.
Such amazing character / level design, story, animation, script and voice acting. Couldn’t have been done better imo.
@@thelittledetailscr7231huh? lol
Love this game fr 💙
Aged like fine wine imo. I don't remember it looking thís good, but back then ofc I played with much lower graphics detail.
One of the best graphical games of all time. INSANE.
Game runs so smoothly and looks better than most games released even now, if u put a reshade on this game will look even better
Even the way the rain is flung into the air as Batman's cape expands hits different

Amazing what developers can do when they’re passionate and care about the product they’re making.. this has blown me away truly amazing!
you werent there on premier tho, it was a disaster, the game was removed from steam for months
@@Adr1an511 yeah that pc port at first was bad but glad to see today it’s sorta better to a extent 💙
@@darkscoutergamer6168 after it returnet it was cheap and sort of polished, gtx 1060 did the job

Man the 8K slide show with turning circle is incredible
I can really appreciate every frame of this game
How did they achieve this and what did they achieve it on?
@@darrendyson8347 You mean the "8K"? DLDSR set to 4x on a 4K monitor, and of course, a 4090.
I started to play this game but never finished it. Due to making space for other games, I think it's time to play it again. And great video as usual. Jack, keep up the great work, sir.
Had this game sitting in my steam libary for years, this video has finally comvinced me to try it out
the game is insane and also looks and plays as good if not better than current modern titles which is really impressive.
Same here!
Do it!
Jack, it's great to see you play Arkham Knight! All 4 games in the series are incredible Batman stories but Arkham Knight's gameplay was absolutely the best. I hope to see more videos from you playing this game and would love to see some predator challenges... I bet you'd be really good at them.
We need an arkham origins remaster using the same setup as Knight.
I remember playing this everyday, after work, till sunrise. What a game
Damn bro you work overnight
i was mind blown when i saw arkham knight's graphics as a kid, still looks amazing today.
The new found love this game has gotten over the last year or so is so cool. I still jump into this game every now and then and still love it. A gem ahead of its time 🖤🦇
Weak story and too much batmobile imo but everything else about this game was awesome.
GOAT game. Never unistalled this gem. I still play it every now and them. It's probably the solo game with the longest shelf-life I ever had.
This game is the testament to how good art style can make a game immortal.
My favourite gaming trilogy ever! I still play all the arkham games over and over again.
This game is an absolute gem. Polished is an understatement, it's a masterpiece.
Watching this video on my old phone: “yes totally I see the amazing quality”
one of the greatest video games ive played a good experience
Next to Bioshock, the Arkham series is what go me back into single player games back in the early 2010's. There was something about that generation of single player games that I have yet to find that scratch that "itch". Such a great trilogy.
Playing it in 1080p was amazing, it's just a phenomenal game
Fact. I've been replaying it with the new suit, but I wished they had added a performance mode for console, but other than that, this game still beats most games today.
It's biggest issue is the overuse of the Batmobile. If it didn't do that it would have been one of the best games ever.
i played this game a year ago, absoulute perfection. It even looks better than many new tgames with RTX and everythin. It´s just incredible how good it looks and well it plays
Despite being marred by a bad release on PC, it is one of the best games of all time. It is also still one of the best looking games ever made, and it looks worse on youtube than it does in game because youtube is terrible with the rain.
This is what I love about jack, he doesn't care what is popular right now, he just shows off what he enjoys playing and appreciates good games, even if they are relatively "old".
I have never noticed that the water drops react at 0:09 and gets thrown out whenever you launch yourself into gliding. Cool detail.
This Batman game is the greatest out of all of the Batman games of the past. It was truly ahead of it’s time.
i see what you mean by more evergreen content! this was an awesome video! loved the impromptu tutorial like commentary Jack! :)
The calming commentary and clean gameplay are so satisfying 👍. Keep it up ❤.
This was at the PEAK of gaming industry.
This game is genuinely one of the best games of all time, especially given the fact it came out in 2015 and still looks better than most games that have came out since...
I’m replaying this game now, really the whole series. I platinum the first 2 and already half way done on this one.
I didn't think it would be possible to get better than Arkham City, but the addition of the batmobile was absolutely nuts. The Riddler trophies would keep me busy for hours. Few games have nailed the main/side quest dynamic as well as this one. The Easter eggs alone are enough to keep any Batman fanboy endlessly busy. They really did Batman right and this particular game was the pinnacle of the series.
This really was a great game after they finally finished it a few years after its initial launch. Its a great and beautiful game for sure.
If they did a "remake" of this like tlou I wouldn't think twice in buying it lol
Ain’t no way Jack’s playing an Arkham game😍
Damn, hearing Kevin Conroy the first time in awhile is something special…Grew up to that voice coming out of my favorite Batman’s. Very comforting!

This is peak video game graphics nothing out rn can touch this which is crazy considering how old this game is
3:00
have been replaying the entire series in canon order (it is so damn good) and am so happy to get back to Arkham Knight. It feels so rare to play through a series and see how much better every iteration becomes.
It’s crazy how we got this masterpiece in 2015 and now we get gollum and Kong type beats nowadays
The fact that just for the game the designed an even sicker batmobile that is actually great design all round.
Patterson's suit looks so damn good in this game. I like using this suit and the tumbler in the end game. It just feels right.
One of the best games ever made
watched the whole thing like i havnt played this 9 times lmao. great vid

I absolutely love that Fear mode they have created, it puts Batman to an absolute tee! 😎👊
Maybe one day in the future I'll return to this video to watch it on my 8k screen if I ever got one.
Well ahead of it’s time. I replayed this only 6 months ago, and enjoyed it just as much as when it came out.
I love when this guy a game tester detail everything 😊
Just now playing this; so far, it's amazing.
Absolute masterpiece. If anything, I wish it featured more bosses, I think thats its weakest point, but perfection doesn't exist right?

I was just talking about this game today with my bud as we were playing Gotham Knights. Looking forward to you playing some oldie but goodies.
I don’t recall the Robert Paterson Batman having shoulder pads like a women 90’s pantsuit.
Maybe my favourite part of this game is how un-Ubisoft the side missions are.

You should do this with mad max. I would love to see that game MAXED out
Love this content form, excited for more...keep it up lad 👍👍
I got this game free on PSN but never played it. Guess I’ve been napping on it. Looks incredible. Great vid jack :)
Batman arkham knight will always be one of those games... You know, like Need For Speed 2015, a game, that still looks so astonishing to this day.
Man I have played through this game at least 3 times and let me tell you this game hasn`t dissapointed me once. I love this game
So glad people still appreciating this game, truly a masterpiece of a trilogy. Arkham origins just as fun but people don’t acknowledge it much! Thanks for the review so cool in 8k
batman series is the few games that graphically still give new games a run for their money
I still go back and play this. One of my favorite games and I need to play it back now that I have a 4k setup
Should've done this in his actual suit nit the Pattinson one, as the texture on the actual one is better and has more details
The graphic style has really held up well. Ive always loved the art design of this game
Bioshock 2 Remastered 8k w/ Ray tracing! This game with RTX is INSANE. Such a beautiful game with some modern features.
I could play batman games like this forever. Can't even imagine if they make another one this year or on next Gen.
havent used my ps4 in a while but might fire it up give these games another playthrough
Nice seeing you show some different types of games Jack.
There NEED to be a 60fps patch for the PS5, asap!!!
i remember how i bought this game when rocksteady said that they'll give us all arkham games as an apology and i never regret my decision my favorite games of all time
the game is so good that i actually prefer when the scenes in the story plays in the engine instead of a cinematic
So weird seeing people play Arkham Knight at 8K when at release almost nobody could play it on PC even at 1080p
It was perfectly fine in 1080p just a lot of GPUs from this time had only 2GB of VRAM, but even then some 2gb models were fine...
This game.. SW Battlefront 2015, Battlefield 3, crysis, etc etc. All these games were ahead of their time.
But nowadays we get games with graphics that look worse than the games mentioned above.. while we have way better and stronger tech.
FINALLY, A 4K VIDEO!!!!!!!!!! please upload more in 4k at a higher bitrate.
Such a good game series. Seeing it again makes me want to break out the old consoles. Have you done any VR stuff Jack?
