Let's clarify here. None of the events in this game are real. This is a dream. That transmission from the beginning with the numbers translates to WAKE UP BRUCE. Penguin shouts "wake up idiot" but he says idiot as in singular one person, so he would be referring to Bruce. The jokers presence in the game is a big giveaway of the dream because this take solace after Arkham city so joker is dead. That and the surreal ending. This is a prequel to Arkham Knight but ever since City, Bruce has had infected joker blood in him. This is a dream where he sees what might become of him if the infection persists. This would explain why he didn't want Nightwing or Robin anywhere near his conflict with Scarecrow and the Arkham Knight and why he had Robin working on a cure so much.
FanelliFilms Forgive my ignorance, as I'm only vaguely familiar with the series. But in City, doesn't Batman take the cure freeze made him? So why is he having dreams about what'll happen if the infection persists when he's already taken the antidote? I'm a little confused.
FanelliFilms that really makes sense. Thanks for that, I'm currently playing Arkham Knight and I wondered why Robin and Nightwing weren't fighting in the game. That really helps me understand the game better. Cheers, Mustard Orb.
I might be in the minority but I think this game does a really good job of explaining why Batman distanced himself from everyone in knight - it's his fear of harming them.
I agree but I feel like rhey could have incorporated the hallucinations of Dick and Tims deaths in the game somewhat instead of just Joker appearing none stop.
Could you imagine how he felt after he woke up or saw nightwing and robin after he found out in the dream he caused their deaths? It must’ve haunted him
i love how when nightwing dies batmans like "oh no you died thats such a shame" but in the comics batman would literally be crying on the floor and fuckin havin suicidal thoughts lol.
Here's how you can tell it's a dream: 1) Listen closely when Batman first begins examining Nightwing's "corpse", and you'll hear an alarm clock in the background (it's faint, but it's there). 2) Joker's dialogue in the morgue from that tape recorder (as a reference to Arkham Knight in which Joker would constanly taunt Batman from things like an answering machine).
Ya u are totally right. It happened before Arkham knight that is why he said to Robin and nightwing to stay away while catching scarecrow and Arkham knight and wanted Robin to work on the cure
Feel like i'm watching a +1 hour game cutscene and waiting it to be start. This walkthrough is so flawless and smooth. As expected along with your other videos as well. The only channel that plays with charm and never failed to make me satisfied. Well done!
Not really, in the comics and cartoons (Batman Animated Series and Brave & The Bold), it's Joe Chill who killed Thomas & Martha Wayne (or if you're using the Flashpoint skin - Joe Chill kills Bruce making Thomas become Batman and Martha go insane and become Joker), but they changed it in the 1989 film to Joker (as Jack Napier) who killed the Waynes minus Bruce before echoing the very familiar quote - "Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?". It's only changed slightly in Arkham City when you come across the bouquet of red roses with a note from Hugo Strange saying "This is where it began, and where it shall end! H.Strange" with the unlockable clip from Hugo Strange mocking Bruce on his parents deaths and gloating how Protocol Ten would be successful and how he would round up everyone he knew and kill them in front of Bruce.
Nolan North Also Voiced Deadpool, Rocket Raccoon In Disney Infinity, And PENGUIN!?!? Nolan Must Be Marvel's Mark Hamill Since He Voiced Other Marvel Characters And Characters Outside Of Marvel Property, Just Like When Mark Voiced Woverine In Woverine's Revenge 2.
I like how Batman's hands are covered in cuts and bruises. It shows how much physical strain and pain he's putting himself through, but he doesn't mind that at all.
Well he also says Master Todd instead of Master Jason; he only really seems to refer to Bruce by his first name, and with everyone else it's usually their last name.
Gotta give them props for ending on such a dour note, even if it's just a dream. Figured they'd do some cool cliché like Batman on a building looking at Gotham
The big problem with VR is motion sickness. It wouldn't be that difficult to just convert one of the existing Batman games into VR, with the same camera perspective only adding head tracking. But then most certainly 80% of all players will puke in the first 10 minutes and never play it again. You just couldn't do the same Third/First Person movement in a VR game like in a "normal" game. With Batman VR they made the best out of this situation creating an amazing experience everybody could play.
Forget everybody else I have my VR wings and I wanna fly .... I would love a real immersive Batman experience ... This game is almost a bland as a tell tale game
So pretty much this is a sequel to Arkham city, where batman discovers that he has Joker still in his blood. So he has hallucinations involving him killing Robin and Nightwing?
Of course it is, but I think if the idea is about how batman discovered he had the Joker disease and had these thoughts of killing Robin and Nightwing than they should've been a little more clear
@@Mr.Drew70 because why would it be some random inmate in batman's hallucination? Obviously the joker is taunting batman, so why not make him think he is hearing jason's screams.
Holy Crap. This is amazing. I never even saw the twist ending coming. That entire game was so well thought out. It ties in well with Arkham City and Arkham Knight, and it's honestly one of the best Arkham games in the series. Well done Rocksteady!

For what it was; I think that was really solid product by Rocksteady. While, the whole 'return to the asylum' thing is getting tired, I imagine in a (ideal) VR setting, this would send shivers down my spine. Considering where Bats is mentally in Arkham Knight, and this is literally a game where you get in Bats's head; having a prequel where Bruce finds out he's the 5th Joker is really neat. Goes along way in helping relate to Bruces decisions to be the way to his allies in AK too. The factors that led to not having the usual VA's return, and the lack of VA in general (outside Mark Hamill... did he record this during AK production?) is a shame, but understandable considering this is more experiment territory than triple A title. Time and Time again Rocksteady have shown they are masters of the headscrew stuff in game... and VR games I imagine they reach a whole new level. I'm really glad they made this project. That said this is still a VR game, and as is I'm not too interested in picking it up personally. It does however show start to show off off to people like me what VR can do. And Story wise I consider it a great addition to the Arkham Universe. 'Grats Rocksteady.
Hey, pretty awesome that you went back years later to add those little 'chapters' to show the different parts of the game. No one would have complained if you didn't but it's appriciated.
I would have to say that this is one, messed-up video game from the Batman: Arkham series. Even though this is 'virtual reality', which I'm still not entirely caught on.
yeah I agree, the feeling of immersion is definitely awesome but this game is a joke, every time I see footage of new VR games I just have flashbacks to shit like the virtual boy and what not. VR is still in its infancy, even after 20 years.
The ending is so surreal. It leaves more questions than Arkham Knight's ending did. A nightmare is the only thing that makes sense, but there's no clear indication that's what it is. I can't believe THIS is the last Arkham game we'll ever get from them.
Still making Arkham Games they are. Glad to see the series still going on and staying true which I like seeing. Batman will always be a top true series in the world.
@@Eniyi04 I wouldn't say that, I think everybody knew that Batman wasn't the same during the events of Harley Quinns Revenge, plus it would have shown that the cure that Freeze made didn't work properly and that Bruce and Tim found out that there were three (technically four since Bruce knows he's still infected with Joker's blood) patients infected with Venom Joker blood.
Am I the only one who realised that this entire mission is based on that hidden wall in one of the challenges in the Wayne Manor in Batman Arkham Knight?
Great video! Loved how you explored the optional little things, too, since some were interesting Easter Eggs (I like details like that.). It's obvious you'd played this game at least once before so the play-through was really smooth. I always get annoyed when playthrough-ers are doing it for the first time and get confused or take forever on simple puzzles.
No the video was sent to him before the events of Arkham Asylum it's nothing new to him. In Asylum Joker even says that Batman could "use a new sidekick".
Batman: Computer, update jokers file everytime he commits a new crime Me watches the file after jokers death Me: How the f*ck is he not in the electric chair!?
For anyone watching this back and going "Wtf is this supposed to be for??" I'll help you. TLDR; This takes place between the ending of City and beginning of Knight, as Batman is infected with the Joker's blood as shown in the Batcave. All this game is, is asking the question, "What would've Batman done had the Joker's blood completely took over?" This game is only a dream, but it supports why Batman is so reluctant to keep Nightwing and Robin so distant in Arkham Knight. Its fear of what'd happen to them.
I like the way robin yells batman when he's jumpscared, it's kinda like a child doing something by mistake and yelling for his father for help. that made it feel so real imo
30 minutes in and it's been nothing but toying around with in Wayne Manor and the Batcave. I don't mind that you get to explore these places, and I actually like how the person playing is looking in to all this stuff. I'm just amazed that this is just about half of what the game has to offer. I just looked up it's price, $19.99. At least it's not $60.
I played this game when I was 12 and VR was still new. I'm 20 now and it was nice to watch this game again again after 8 years. Still one of my favorite games ever. Lots of good memories!
40:15 You know... with a good TEN YEARS under Batman's belt by now, I don't think I buy a single criminal in Gotham looking at anything Batman pulls out and exclaiming "What the hell is that!?"
From my understanding, this is simply a dream, right? Though, we can still place it into the order of events such as this. Honestly cannot remember DLC names right now. Initiation Origins Mr. Freeze Story DLC Blackwater Multiplayer Batgirl DLC (It really is canon and I can explain how. It is said to be non canon because everyone went with some other person's statement.) Asylum City with Catwoman DLC Harley Quinn's Revenge VR Harley Quinn DLC Knight (Season DLC) Redhood, Nightwing, Robin, Catwoman DLC
Someone said here that 25 april, some year, was first Joker appearing in comics. Also it's Joe Chill or actually Joker cell in Asylum, + almost whole plot of the Arkham VR was wrote on wall in Wayne Manor AK challenge.
It would probably be due to limited market rather then the lower price. First, it's Playstation only (for now), so there goes all the PC and Xbox customers. After that, there's the fact that only PSVR customers will potentially buy the game. Keep in mind that these guys have to pay $300 for the system, plus $400 for the headset. In the end, there's a very small number of customers that will pay for this right now.
I'm 3 years late but it's all good lol Great Video. I played this for the 1st time last night. It was Dope but Scary as hell at the same time Lol! I subscribed
2:17 Joe Chill in this version is absolutely sadistic. Makes me relieved that he got gunned down by other criminals after they found out that he created Batman.
17:36 alright guys, new secret to solve! It sounds similar to the radio broadcasts back in Arkham City, but this one has negative numbers. I've tried to solve it, but the closest I've gotten was something along the lines of "wake up" for the first part, but that's it, and it doesn't match with any of the ciphers. If you guys can help, it'd be appreciated.
toufos1 Yeah, they already did something like that with "Johnny Charisma Live". Like I said, the closest I've gotten was the first part as "Wake Up", but it doesn't match any of the known ciphers.
I've already seen this solution posted some other place. It was "WAKE UP BRUCE", which makes sense considering this whole adventure is Bruce's dream/hallucination. Since you took the time to decypher it and both answers match, Imma stick with it. Congrats btw
Pretty sure the devs weren't clear whether this was semi-canon (as a dream between City and Knight) or completely non-canon as a What-If they made for the VR.
I just played this yesterday and I felt it had a lot of potential. I was disappointed in how incredibly short it was. They could really do a lot with this that they just didn't do.
Lord Bluimus Well, it basically talks about the clues Batman was saying in this game, like "He knew his killer," and "what did the Penguin know?" And stuff like that. There's a video on this channel that shows it.

that's what the arkham games biggest problem, the characters lack of empathy, Batman in many cases doesn't show his feelings when he should....
I think it's just Batman, because Robin's outburst in his cell is was an amazing moment, despite the iffy Tim and Barbra relation
He did show that with Alfred in origins when Bane nearly killed Alfred but other then that it's about it when showing feelings.

This and Arkham Asylum have the darkest atmospheres in the Arkham games.
You're not including Arkham Knight, or maybe Origins?
Arkham asylum was my favourite game because of the atmosphere
Arkham Knight had pretty dark atmosphere too. Much darker than Arkham VR.
Arkham Asylum was pretty much the scariest since it’s based off a real creepy mental asylum

That's my question as well.

stop it, get some help.

Gogeta3366 Yes at the end jokers cell was 425. Joker was created April 25th..
Wow! With such a long list of crimes you'd think The Joker would try running for President... Oh Wait...
Um...never mind.
Ben Riley ha
Ben Riley The Joker would win because he is not a rapist.
True... but he is a Cannibal
MrNikkistyles Jonny Frost and The Killing Joke say otherwise...
Joker isn't a cannibal, or are you talking about killer croc?
“He’s mine. mine mine mine”
10 Seconds later... “shoots
“Never could stand a tattletale”
"Cannibalism"
wait what
its the joker so dont be too surprised
Your pfp fits with the comment lol
Was this the best thing to watch at 4:00 in the morning?
No
Is it terrifying?
Definitely
Why am I still watching?
Because I can't stop
Same boat buddy
I don't know what people were expecting, but this is vr. it hasn't been around that long. baby steps, guys
Virtual Reality has been around since the early '90s
yeah but real-time rendering and gaming of this quality hasn't
@@ExplorerDS6789 not like this
So who wins in the end? Batman? Joker?
Killer Croc. That's who.
Yeah, he got dinner.
In fact no one wins it a dream
What about me..POMPEY!!
George Baynard is that an erb reference
SuperHeroes201 Yep yep
Great video! Loved how you explored the optional little things, too, since some were interesting Easter Eggs (I like details like that.). It's obvious you'd played this game at least once before so the play-through was really smooth. I always get annoyed when playthrough-ers are doing it for the first time and get confused or take forever on simple puzzles.
Anime Girl Amy
Agreed
Man that “ inner demon “ playing while you going down in the batcave is just beautiful!
The last part feels like an horror game.
So Dick and Tim are dead? Was it just an hallucination?
It was a Joker blood induced hallucination every single bit, including talking to Alfred.
ShinobiNintendo The entire game is a hallucination.
this is set in between city and knight. this is when batman found out that he was infected with joker's blood.
Doesn't take place during Arkham Knight since he found the video where Joker murders Jason Todd? Or is it part of the hallucination too?
No the video was sent to him before the events of Arkham Asylum it's nothing new to him. In Asylum Joker even says that Batman could "use a new sidekick".
Batman: Computer, update jokers file everytime he commits a new crime
Me watches the file after jokers death
Me: How the f*ck is he not in the electric chair!?
Nightwings killer was Ozymandias
No it was Osmosis Jones
Desean Ashby ... Did you just tell Clowncake "no"
Clowncake ...No, don't kill me.
Desean Ashby Look in your closet
Clowncake .......or maybe it was Harambe.
"if he is in trouble, every second may count"
*proceeds to look at giant penny*
That's a long list of crimes you got there, Jack.
For anyone watching this back and going "Wtf is this supposed to be for??" I'll help you.
TLDR; This takes place between the ending of City and beginning of Knight, as Batman is infected with the Joker's blood as shown in the Batcave.
All this game is, is asking the question, "What would've Batman done had the Joker's blood completely took over?"
This game is only a dream, but it supports why Batman is so reluctant to keep Nightwing and Robin so distant in Arkham Knight. Its fear of what'd happen to them.
I like the way robin yells batman when he's jumpscared, it's kinda like a child doing something by mistake and yelling for his father for help. that made it feel so real imo
Funnest game I've ever played! Everyone needs to give VR a try. The experience is amazing!
U think it worths 20$?
I'm thinking of buying it
wow that was a beautiful prequel to arkham knight. Really honored the series as well loved it.
Ive seen Bruce's parents die so many times.....the fuck. lol
But you never stood there. They had to do it again, for VR.
DFKnightmare h
30 minutes in and it's been nothing but toying around with in Wayne Manor and the Batcave. I don't mind that you get to explore these places, and I actually like how the person playing is looking in to all this stuff. I'm just amazed that this is just about half of what the game has to offer.
I just looked up it's price, $19.99. At least it's not $60.
3:08 Godspeed Master Bruce
Green Goblin: Thats my line!
It looks like killer croc left his stage. let's administer a friendly shock to bring him back to the stage.
John Slender *intense PTSD*
I played this game when I was 12 and VR was still new. I'm 20 now and it was nice to watch this game again again after 8 years. Still one of my favorite games ever. Lots of good memories!
30:52
I was watching this on my PS4 so I thought I got a PlayStation trophy 🏆 XD
40:15 You know... with a good TEN YEARS under Batman's belt by now, I don't think I buy a single criminal in Gotham looking at anything Batman pulls out and exclaiming "What the hell is that!?"
"So, Bruce, are you sure you don't want to grieve over the death of the man equivalent to your first-born son?"
"Nah, I'm good."
Wait what would have happened if you broke the mirror with a punch or a header at the end of the game? Is that an alternative? Could you do that?
No, walls and most of the objects are intangible.
***** Thank you ^_^
ItookyourJello show your face batmanarckhamvideos
ItookyourJello hip
you I was thinking the same exact thing
From my understanding, this is simply a dream, right? Though, we can still place it into the order of events such as this. Honestly cannot remember DLC names right now.
Initiation
Origins
Mr. Freeze Story DLC
Blackwater
Multiplayer
Batgirl DLC (It really is canon and I can explain how. It is said to be non canon because everyone went with some other person's statement.)
Asylum
City with Catwoman DLC
Harley Quinn's Revenge
VR
Harley Quinn DLC
Knight (Season DLC)
Redhood, Nightwing, Robin, Catwoman DLC
typos....phones these days
Blackwater? What in God's name is that?
@@mannyrodriguez3933 I think he meant blackgate, the arkham origins game
@@d4-lt359 oh ok thank you my Good man for correcting me.
Batgirl is canon, as it's before the Arkham trilogy
26:12 so thats why i got food poisoning from that meat loaf
BAV does everything perfectly, down to the last detail
I think this is what the secret wall in the Wayne Manor challenge map was about!
Yep, I figuret it all out before VR release, and here we go - this easter egg is related to VR's plot.
What does the number 425 mean, though? It shows up again in Cash's coffee mug and in Joker's cell number.
Someone said here that 25 april, some year, was first Joker appearing in comics.
Also it's Joe Chill or actually Joker cell in Asylum, + almost whole plot of the Arkham VR was wrote on wall in Wayne Manor AK challenge.
Kacper Nowak Guess that shows short the game really is!
GI Jack due 6
They didn't even get Nolan North as Penguin or Martin Jarvis as Alfred?
Probably because this isn't a full 60 buck game, not worth it, for such a small role.
H C i still feel like Nolan should have been in it. Nolan is in pretty much EVERYTHING when it comes to video games.
It would probably be due to limited market rather then the lower price. First, it's Playstation only (for now), so there goes all the PC and Xbox customers. After that, there's the fact that only PSVR customers will potentially buy the game. Keep in mind that these guys have to pay $300 for the system, plus $400 for the headset. In the end, there's a very small number of customers that will pay for this right now.
Indeed. VR is about as mass market as the Neo-Geo was.
Ryan Brown This is turning out just like Virtual Boy
And i am not happy about that.
I'm 3 years late but it's all good lol Great Video. I played this for the 1st time last night. It was Dope but Scary as hell at the same time Lol! I subscribed
2:17 Joe Chill in this version is absolutely sadistic.
Makes me relieved that he got gunned down by other criminals after they found out that he created Batman.
17:36 alright guys, new secret to solve! It sounds similar to the radio broadcasts back in Arkham City, but this one has negative numbers. I've tried to solve it, but the closest I've gotten was something along the lines of "wake up" for the first part, but that's it, and it doesn't match with any of the ciphers. If you guys can help, it'd be appreciated.
GI Jack joker still live.....I think... that's the best I got so far
toufos1 How'd you get it?
I didn't solve it...I just got some letters and the rest is speculation..it makes sense but I don't think thats the answer.
toufos1 Yeah, they already did something like that with "Johnny Charisma Live". Like I said, the closest I've gotten was the first part as "Wake Up", but it doesn't match any of the known ciphers.
I've already seen this solution posted some other place. It was "WAKE UP BRUCE", which makes sense considering this whole adventure is Bruce's dream/hallucination. Since you took the time to decypher it and both answers match, Imma stick with it. Congrats btw
Is it just me, or are Selina's lips freaking HUGE judging by the size of the lipstick smears on her postcards?
....had to be said.
Missed it, where is it?
Leo in the beginning, when you're looking around the room at stuff. All the postcards being picked up are marked SK, for Selina Kyle.
***** shorter.
piratesrule o
Fucked up......
But awesome.
So Batman's still infected?....where is this game, chronologically?
Ah, so Joker's dead, but he's infected.Got it.
It's a dream that I have between City and Knight.
Bat Man No it's not, Bruce. It was a nightmare you had between City and Knight.
Batman ExactlWAIT A MINUTE. You just said it was after Knight! WHAT THE FUCK?!?!
Addison Bortion Smh that's a different person.
I am VERY positive that this is a dream
It is a dream as night-wing is still alive in Arkham Knight, this is between City and Knight.
Pretty sure the devs weren't clear whether this was semi-canon (as a dream between City and Knight) or completely non-canon as a What-If they made for the VR.
You can tell by Penguin saying to Batman, "Wake up you idiot!" Penguin was not refering to HIS men. He was refering to batman, or Bruce. 40:35
I just played this yesterday and I felt it had a lot of potential. I was disappointed in how incredibly short it was. They could really do a lot with this that they just didn't do.
The fact that you can hear jasons scream in the asylum is horrifying
Btw are you gonna do return to Arkham when it comes out??
when does it come out?
Jordan Taylor Tuesday
ow
hey Joel
hows ellie?
Joel Miller I may be a kid, but I just got the shit kicked out of me and got nearly CHOKED TO FUCKING D E A T H. And I'm still kicking, babeeee.
And just today. For something
THAT I D I D N T D O
Like, holy shit man.
when's the arkham knight easter Eggs video coming out?
Dylan Gouldthorpe Your profile pic goes well with your comment.
sgtfrozty i know but i really do what to see a video cause I actually want to see how much there are
Dylan Gouldthorpe I haven't been waiting on Easter eggs but it has been over a year since AK came out, I can't believe they haven't got to it yet.
I saw a lot of Easter eggs
Dylan Gouldthorpe it's been out
jokers voice at 26:21 reminds me of his voice in the animated series because marks voice as the joker at the time was sorta more high pitched
Jason’s screams. God, so haunting.
That new Penguin voice actor is so bland.
Gex i thought i was the only one who noticed
billy mayotte Nope
Gex Eh, he's not terrible. But still, I prefer Nolan North.
#nolannorthislife
Sebastian Detoro Funny way to spell "Shrek" ya got there.
When ever there's a new Batman game, this guy will be the bomb at it.
GUYS! Go back to Wayne Manor in Arkham Knight! The Easter egg was about this!
Lord Bluimus In one of the challenge maps it is.
Lord Bluimus It was the Easter egg. It was foreshadowing this.
Lord Bluimus In Wayne Manor, there's a piano next to a wall. You can play it, and when you do a secret wall opens, and it gives clues about VR's plot
Lord Bluimus Well, it basically talks about the clues Batman was saying in this game, like "He knew his killer," and "what did the Penguin know?" And stuff like that. There's a video on this channel that shows it.
8:15 Nice job using the Arkham theme on the piano.
The fact that the lullaby was EVEN in the main theme when you descend into the Batcave is beyond insane to me 😱
Yea I’m confused I didn’t have to play that in order to proceed 🤔. Just touched the keys and bam
