Story Trailer Released for BATMAN: ARKHAM SHADOW VR Game
WB Games and Rocksteady have released a new trailer for the upcoming VR game Batman: Arkham Shadow, and it offers some new footage and details on the story, which involves the chaos in Gotham City brought on by the villain the Rat King.
The story is set between the events of Batman: Arkham Origins and Batman: Arkham Asylum, and it takes place during the Fourth of July, where Gotham City is besieged by the mysterious Rat King and his cultish devotees.
Public officials have been abducted, including Commissioner Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent. The Rats have pledged to execute them in one week’s time for “crimes committed against the people of Gotham City.”
Arkham Shadow will feature the origins of iconic characters like The Scarecrow, Harley Quinn, and more, as Batman grapples with the contradiction at the core of his identity—the use of force in pursuit of peace.
The game is currently in development for the Meta Quest 3, with a Fall 2024 release. It looks like fun!
