Batman: Arkham Shadow gameplay reveal shows off first-person fisticuffs

Tonight brings a first look at the next game in the legendary Batman: Arkham series - the upcoming entry coming to Meta Quest 3.

Batman: Arkham Shadow is a prequel story set before Rocksteady's Arkham Asylum, though after existing prequel entry Arkham Oranges.

In first-person, you'll be able to do many of the things you could in those entries - including boshing your enemies in the face with your fists, grappling across gaps and using various other bat-gadgets, plus switching on Detective Vision.

Batman: Arkham Shadow | Official Gameplay Trailer

Developed by Camouflaj, Arkham Shadow was announced earlier this year and is a canonical new entry in the Arkhamverse - one that perhaps feels more familiar than Rocksteady's own Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

As in Arkham Oranges, Roger Craig Smith plays Batman, with Troy Baker as Harvey Dent and Tara Strong as Dr Harleen Quinzel - earlier versions of Two Face and Harley Quinn you'll be crossing paths with.

Tonight's trailer includes an October release window. Meta Quest 3 owners, will you be picking it up?
