I agree. It so rediculous that actually listening to the fans and superfans (I have put over 300 hours into Knight alone 🤦) would make them so much money 😣

​@@TheCrown1313This has nothing to do with WB. Meta is funding and publishing this game

They care about the 10 who own a VR headset

This is actually very good news and a very smart move.

Looks like it, they had the blueprint for success and burnt it😂

lol not if Meta is paying top dollar to make it exclusive.

​@@robertsears8323what do u mean

Absolutely

Because it needs to be a VR game. Playing as Batman on a flat screen is garbage VR is the only real way to play a Batman game.

@@robertsears8323 yeah but having a game be VR means most people can’t play it

@@robertsears8323 ...did you not play any of the other arkham games?

People need to stop shying away from VR, it’s a new and much better way to play games unless your a fat lazy gamer who needs constant access to cheesies lol

Most people aren't able to afford VR headsets myself included

WB is losing money and are trying to get as much profit as possible, I assume before the ship sinks. WB has cancelled Batman movies for tax write-offs. It's run by morons. DC movies were cash grabs with horrible writers and directors. Truly a sheit show.

As good as Arkham Knight was they put way to much focus on the batmobile

Only because fans have been asking for it since Asylum

@@craigl458 I'm sorry, but this is not the time for quibbling about the batmobile. We're facing the very real possibility that we may never get another Arkham game as they try to cram microtransaction garbage down our throats for the rest of eternity, and you're bitching about everything wrong with arguably the best video game of all time.

WB should just give the reins of the video game division to James Gunn...

It's being made by Camoflaj which is a first party Meta VR studio. So it's bound to be exclusive

Someone needs to polish Origins' MP and give it back to me.

Why do people want to pay full price again for an old game

@@McGeezle because the game was never ported to ps4 unlike the last of us which was needlessly remastered with nothing more than a graphical upgrade only a few years apart

Still got origins on the 360 and ps3 so I ain't complaining

@@Cyphyxia ah I forgot about console problems

I think lots of people will be getting them sooner or later. They have some deals with Microsoft/Lenovo/LG/ASUS ROG for additional hardware and software/usability. Plus a much cheaper version of quest 3 for like 300 bucks coming out. Not to mention it's highly likely we will see GTA announced on top of the already announced metro and alien games coming this year.

Meta Quest is funding and publishing this game.

I'm pretty sure Meta Quest is the least popular of all the VR currently being sold. Also there is a market for VR games, but non-VR games are much more popular.

@@jiblitin1520 the quest headsets are the most popular by a large margin. Quest 2 sold 20+ million beating all the current gen Xbox sales for the same time period. Quest 3 preorders were around a million and is very likely to be higher than quest 2. Quest is also the most popular pcvr headset despite it not been designed specifically for that.

The Suicide Squat already did that. The VR game is going to make the last 10% of the fans to give up on the series completely.

See, this would be the *ONLY* acceptable way to continue the Arkhamverse to me. Completely ignore the Suicide Squad game, and just have things continue some time after Bruce's death in Knight. It respects Kevin's role and memory (along with the Bruce version of the Batman character), while still being able to continue the property in a good and interesting way. Plus, it'd be cool if Will came back to voice Terry too.

I don’t believe you can get the amazing dlc anymore tho. :’(

@@danielmcneill3521 there is the season pass edition (can’t remember what it’s called) on there in the 40$ range that includes the DLC last time I checked

I have it on disc.

it was on steam

I have it on disc with all DLC and Season Pass content

Alien VR game due out this holiday season too!

@@samson143vr And I won't be playing it, since I can't afford VR gear and playing VR is making me sick, bu that's okay, at least it will be new, separate thing, not continuation of some beloved game or series.

@@samson143vr yeah so who cares most people don’t have access to VR so it doesn’t matter that the game is even coming out

While I agree it had a good run most gamers just wanted fun Batman stories. I know it would be tough trying to replace Batman with Conroy gone. But there is 1 person who voiced Batman in the Arkham series who would be accepted as he voiced him when Conroy was alive, Roger Craig Smith. I think they can make a new Batman story just don't have it connected to Arkham as it honours Conroy but makes sure us gamers get Batman games. But keep the combat style

I think the anger stems because we got suicide squad instead of an actual batman game and it's been way too long since knights. If they would have announced a regular batman game plus the VR game no one would be talking about it.

I'm not mad that it's VR. I'm mad that it's a Meta exclusive.

@@jiblitin1520 to be fair that's fair haha. I have psvr 2 and since the first one was on psvr I assumed this one would be aswell. Especially since the team making it made psvr exclusive game previously, I didn't realise it was exclusive that sucks such ass haha. They best had 180 that decision or at least port it later down the lane, barely anyone's gonna play it if it's only on the meta 3

But you can play Alyx on a regular screen now, and I bet you'll be able to play this one too, eventually.

@@niveketihw1897 Oh awesome it's been ported or whatever they did to make it for regular Pcs? Nice 😃 yes you are absolutely right the devs of this batman game will port it to regular consoles. Maybe they are getting funded from (I forget what the VR headset company is called) to get a years VR exclusivity or something

The only reason this game exists is because of Meta. WB has very little to do with this

How dumb are you?

Exactly. That’s why companies make exclusives 🙂

This is a first party Meta title ala asgards wrath 2. It didn't cost WB development time nor money (the opposite actually I'm sure they were paid well for it.). It's also been in development for around four years. I'm pretty sure this will be a fully featured, full length Arkham game. Could be wrong of course I just find it unlikely considering they would have had an almost unlimited budget.

Id put money on him being so arrogant he wants his full name saying 😂

That's why companies don't give flying F about gamers. Actors don't matter in games like they do in movies.

I am genuinely sorry if I just misheard or misunderstood something but I swear PlayStation can play it?

Go play Gotham knights

For me it was the best in the series and I love all of them

The one's making Arkham Shadow is not Rocksteady

No game is worth $600

@@mh4lly941 no game costs 600 tho Same logic could be applied to someone being annoyed they cant play a nintendo game cuz they need to buy a switch and all theyve got is an xbox VR is just another platform to play games on and its a fun unique experience to Imagine this game comes out and its great and it teases an even better arkham game for all platforms Its a win win Just give it time If its a flop then we just have to make sure they dont make another one

Tax write-offs.

They'll get bailed out, too, if things go bad enough. Need to keep the propaganda wings open.

Prob because it didn't cost them anything and they would have been paid really well to use the IP

I don't know a single person that is having trouble meeting basic needs.

@@cppblank Good for you.

We still have Roger Craig Smith and Troy Baker and this game will be Arkham Origins sequel

I actually have interest in VR just can't currently afford it

PSVR 2 is dead. Sony stopped making them because they weren't selling.

​@@TheNotSureAnd PCVR is also almost dead, the only profitable VR platform is the standalone meta quest

It was best in the series

Meta paid a lot of money.

So buy Quest 3, it is actually the best and the most profitable VR headset on the market

@@BadHostile I don't think you are getting the point.

@@zombiejesus7445 I don't think you are getting the point. You may not be very familiar with the VR market, so let me explain. In VR, it's Meta Quest that's mainstream, especially Quest 2, which has sold over 20 million. Last year's holidays both Quest 2 and 3 outsell PSVR2 on Amazon by a 30:1 ratio. Sony no longer wants to invest any more money, so it has stopped production of PSVR2. And literally no one cares about PCVR. The only profitable platform is Quest standalone and practically all VR games go there. Batman will only come out on Quest 3 because Quest 2 is already 4 years old and Meta wants to push the standalone capabilities to their limits. However, this does not mean that Batman will only be available on the current Quest 3. This year, a cheaper version of Quest 3S/Lite will probably appear, which will displace Quest 2 from the market. Additionally, Meta has opened its Horizon OS operating system to other companies and gave the opportunity to produce their own VR headsets based on the Quest 3 specification. Soon we will see new headsets from ASUS ROG, Lenovo, LG and Xbox VR from Microsoft. They will all run on the same system as Quest 3 and use the same store. Batman: Arkham Shadow will also work on them. This Batman will not appear on PSVR2 and PCVR because the game is made by Meta and its goal is to promote its system and platform. It will not fund a game that runs on a competing platform.

One small victory for gamers, Sony backed off the psn required account on Hell Drivers 2. It's a start I suppose.

Why pass? VR is 10 t9imes better than crappy flat screen games.

@@robertsears8323 you need to remember not everyone has the money to pay for VR so don’t put people down for playing on what you consider to be crappy flat screens

You can play Alyx on a regular screen now.

@@csquire667 VR is so cheep no one as an excuse not to get it now.
