If they made an Arkham game in between origins and asylum I think it would make more sense to have roger craig voicing batman. Plus having the map size be the whole of Gotham, Arkham city and the asylum.

R.I.P Kevin Conroy, truly and with every meaning of the word a Legend. Batman is Kevin and Kevin is Batman.

A batman beyond game would be a great way to evolve the Arkham series in all aspects, new characters, new city layout, u can bring old characters in new plots which would be good

Roger Craig Smith killed it as batman in origins, I’d love to see him back as well with Troy baker’s joker since mark just can’t do joker anymore without Kevin

Personally I would really love a Nightwing game set in the Arkham universe and with probably Deathstroke as the main villain. I would especially love that because I kind of hate that a lot of people assume that Deathstroke is a Batman villain or even a Green Arrow villain when in reality he is a Titans villain and more specifically Nightwing's are enemy with the same voice actors for the characters from the Arkham games. I think the idea that he was a Batman villain started with the cinematic trailer of Arkham Origins back in 2013. Another potential idea for a spin-off could be an Azrael game with completely different mechanics and settings and a story set around him confronting the order of Saint Dumas and maybe Michael finding out that he wasn't even the first Azrael and that way he could maybe confront Jean Paul Valley.

There's 2 things in life I love. 1. Massive gaping holes 2. Any video on YT regarding the Batman Arkham games Subbed!!!!

The thing is sadly this Rocksteady is not "the Rocksteady". I gave up on them a pretty long time ago

I really hope they do a Batman beyond follow up to the Arkham series. I think that’s the best choice as they have all the material to work with from all the Arkham games and I feel like they could do something really cool with neo-Gotham. There’s also some really cool bosses to use from the animated series like inque, shriek, spellbinder, blight, the royal flush gang, currare etc. They could also bring back Bruce as a mentor and other bat family character and villains too and show how they’ve changed. It’s probably unlikely they’ll do this but I think it would be an obvious direction for them to go in.

I always wish I could've recorded this and I'm not sure if this is like a common thing everyone has heard, but in Arkham Knight there's a thug voice line where they're talking about batman after he is unmasked, and he goes (paraphrasing i dont remember exact words) "idk I think that maybe he'll leave gotham for a while, but after some time I'm sure he'll return". Now a lot more was said but it was clearly a fan service line alluding to future arkham games that I swear to god is real and I'm so upset I didn't have any clipping software at the time.

I've come into the game extremely late with your Arkham videos cause I only discovered your channel a couple months ago, and I've binged a lot of the older videos from a few years ago. They're like chicken soup for my soul. I loved playing Origins, Asylum, and City a great deal years ago and played them all multiple times. Recently I was replaying City for the first time in years, but I got sidetracked with Final Fantasy 16. Anyway, watching your videos over the past couple months here and there have really given me a lot of great feels, and seeing a new Arkham video pop up today was instant excitement. Thank you for what you do.

Would you guys rather a sequel, or a prequel to the Arkham franchise?

It would be interesting if they made a the Flash game where you play as the flash and the villains are those who are evenly match like reverse flash.

I would Love a Miles Morales-Like Red Hood Game set after AK

They just need to make a new game... they have so much they could make a story abt!

Jay, just wanna throw it out there, i really hope you have more financial luck. I love watching your videos Batman Arkham related content and i recently got back into Batman as a whole. I been steering away due to how the hiatus of rocksteady is going on especially with gotham knights mixed bags. As for this topic, I'm still lost of words of what's going to happen to rocksteady's games. I was heartbroken that batman arkham beyond game is scrapped but that's something we really really needed. It's a huge shame.

As much as I enjoy the Batman Arkham series overall as it partly make me a Batman fans today I feel like it time for other superheroes games to rise up like what Insomniac doing with Spider Man for example that just my opinion on this

Wow I'm glad I found this channel. Really great video!

I want to have the Batman Robert Pattinson version suit in the Arkham games if they came back you know it's time. People have probably already modded that in there in one of the games though

I know exactly why Sefton Hill left. He seen the game industry change pretty drastically (from 2009-present) and when he seen the ideas laid out by the higher ups he bolted. I really do think its as simple as that. He didn't want a live-service and monetized gamed for the universe HE established. And as a pessimist (you can disagree with me irdc..) I truly dont think the arkham series that we once knew will ever come back.

Hmm I was really upset Arkham knight was the end. I wished there were at least 3 more installations, maybe a game where Bruce has to protect Gotham from the league of assassins. The second game could be all of Batman rogues have escaped and he has to capture them. The last one could be Bruce has to return because his family, can't handle this new threat the KG Beast only one can survive maybe Azrael could help Batman as a co-op game. Maybe after the game Azrael does become Gotham's guardian

Keep going bro and keep pushing I know you say you’ve been working really hard but keep pushing! You got this Jay.

I think a prequel to Arkham Asylum might be one of the best options. Get the story leading up to Joker's arrest in the GCPD building, maybe mix in some side stories from Gordan's perspective or even the Joker.

they should make a batman beyond game

You really got me thinking about the future of the Arkham series great video bro 👍

This video was recommended to me from another Batman related video. Then again I'm already a sub

My stance on this is that they should continue the arkhamverse where they have batman work alongside Robin (Grayson) and Batgirl (Gordon) in origins at the early moments in his career. Plus I like Rodger Craig Smith as the voice of a younger dark knight (in origins) that is still learning in his early career. And having him face against his other rogues like Poison ivy, Harley Quinn, the beginning of riddler and two-face, facing against Prometheus (the anti-batman), and maybe throw in original characters like red claw from the animated series.

“i’m a fan of massive gaping holes” WOAHHHHHH😂😂

I think a prequel to the Suicide Squad game could work. Just have it be a tie in where the Justice League form off the heels of the Arkham Knight incident and then have the ending set up Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League.

about Sefton hill, everyone knows how he's really passionate about wat he does especially when it comes to the arkham games considering he really fought wb to prevent them from censoring things in knight that would ruin the story. seeing him leave on this controversial game and even before it releases says something 🧐

Awesome video man, I love Arkham and your channel realy helps keep it alive for me, and your other videos on degenerate plays are awesome too

Love watching your videos dude - i pray for another Arkham game thats single player focused but I just don’t see it. Keep on going man i hear the struggle youtube need to fix up.

RIP Kevin. But roger Craig smith should come back for voice actor in the next Arkham game. Madly underrated Batman. You can hear his anger

Favorite to least favorite: 1. Asylum 2. City 3. Origins 4. Knight (I HATED the Batmobile bits)

Roger's voice as Batman in Origins was great. The Arkham series needs to continue.

Maybe A New Series After Origins With Roger Craig Smith And Troy Baker It Can Be An Alternate Continuity Like A Different Timeline

"Im a fan of massive gaping holes" Me: "AYOOO"

In my opinion IF we ever get an arkham game it wont be the same quality and love they put in the Arkham series many people that worked ieith rocksteady left,and making a game with the new standards will be hard

I absolutely hate that everyone is turning to roger craig smith to be the next batman. I hate to be that guy but troy baker is the obvious next choice for batman. He was batman in lego batman 2, 3 and supervillans, all the lego batman movies (other than THE one with will arnet) batman and superman battle of the super sons, and so many more. Whipe roger was batman in batman unlimited and he is amazing in games like dying light and resident evil to me he is just the young batman and we need troy baker.

Great video man, keep up the amazing content, hopefully Rocksteady has a comeback💯

0:22 "im a fan of massive gaping holes💀"

Heres what they do. They make an origins 2 with roger craig smith maybe going a year or two after origins, then u see how that does and depending on the you could thing about making a post batman game without batman like the rumored Damien game

They could easily make a game based on Assault On Arkham but in Batman’s perspective. They could also combine all of the maps together as one, Arkham City, the other part of Gotham (from Origins) and also Gotham city as a whole (as in Arkham Knight)

Should do a Batman beyond storyline, whole new world right there

I wish they would’ve done that Arkham Beyond game with Damian under the cowl😭 the concept art looked so fire

Were can i see what is on a switch cartdrige? Is there a good website?

Yeah, you've had me thinking of this lately too. Just because they killed off the character doesn't rule out another prequel. If they hadn't made Origins, Batman's death would have more permanence. But now there's this very long period between Origins and Asylum that has yet to be covered. They can try to ignore Origins and all that, but it's there and it was great, and sets a precedence that says the show is never done. Nor should it be. Besides, much as I love Gotham Knights, one thing the game has made very clear is that Gotham isn't Gotham without Batman. Leave the Joker out if you must, that's fine. He's just one of a very big rogue's gallery. Even if they never get into true origins (which they really haven't, you know) There is just so much to be told still. As for me, I'm kind of sick of DC insisting on Batman being retired, dead or missing all over the place. Bring him back, I say! I would even be willing to play in the Bat tank, if need be (although I really didn't care for those tank battles, let's be clear on that). Doyle wasn't allowed to let Sherlock stay dead, and Batman should follow suit.

I find it hard to think that WB/D do not want to, at one point, develop the Arkham Universe with Batman at the forefront. Considering how popular the Arkham games were. I do completely agree however that big media companies only look at the bottom line and make snap decisions. So despite having all versions of the Arkhamverse already, I’ll buy the Switch version regardless despite being annoyed that a couple of the games are digital only - mainly because I feel that this how we get more Arkhamverse in the future. By the way, I found this channel only about 2 months ago and I’m hooked. Thanks for getting so granular about something I love. Keep it up bud! Doing great work

I personally they could at least make a few more Arkham games. 1 or 2 games set after Knight. Something like a Batman Beyond game. And 1 or 2 games set after Origins

I would still like to see the Damian Wayne Batman game Revived and Reworked as well(Which I am going to make my Version of Damian's Batsuit) as a Remaster of Arkham Origins and a Sequel

If we do get a arkham game i think it would not do as well as the first 4 since Kevin Conroy passed away and it will take time getting used to the new voice actor

I think that’s a great point with Gotham knights not being what the Arkham fans wanted. I think even if it’s an ok game people still want an Arkham Batman stealth takedown gadget using game. The whole switch thing is stupid for sure. I’ll buy the cartridge just because at the end of the day it’s still 3 games 20 dollars each compared to 2 30 dollar games. I have hopes on the quality but honestly looking at games with hype around them like Metroid prime and tears of the kingdom I’ll try to be realistic about it

yeah i love massive gaping holes as well jay. just letting you know that you're not alone......

I am personally still livid that Suicide Squad as a games as a service was ever even entertained, especially in hindsight with the passing of Kevin. Which, sure, in complete fairness, nobody saw coming. But the thought that his last ever performance as a character that meant so much to so many people could one day be shut down and lost forever because WB/Rocksteady decided they didn't wanna support the game anymore is...harrowing, frankly

You was my first video on my Home Screen

We need your idea of the origins sequel

I think they could do a lot with that series still specifically with Batman. Either prequel or sequel to knight would work imo. The games truly stand the test of time and are honestly better than some games today even! I would love for origins to get a remaster but I would also like a whole new game in general. I personally would love to see a Batman game where his main villain is court of owls. There’s also tons of villains that were alluded to in previous games that were never brought to light. In regards to Conroy, he truly embodied that character and nailed it but I’m sure Kevin would want the legacy of the Batman to live on!

commenting to support the vid

I feel like a post apocalyptic batman beyond/dark knight returns with Sam witwer as Damian Wayne/ Terry mcguiness would be really good. The main villian could be a reincarnation of the joker and you could have superman in it as this fallen god. You could have the girl robin as a sidekick and as for supporting characters you could have old versions of characters like tim drake as police commissioner or killer croc as an old beast. Also add in some new villains not from the comics. The open world could be dilapidated and futuristic with horror elements. No batmobile.

The arkham series is over. The developers have confirmed multiple times. The only way that theres going to be any mention of arkham batman is if they release more games in the same universe, otherwise there is no games coming out.

I'm currently replaying each of the Arkham games for the first time in several years...even going the Origins Blackgate game. I'm enjoying them a lot and I was thinking how cool it would be to have a new, full single-player Rock Steady batman game - without the freaking batmobile...at least much, much less of it, anyway. Maybe have Hush, Clayface, and one or both versions of the Ventriloquist. Sadly, not likely to happen

Imagine if they kept making Arkham games and we got Insomniac's Spider-Man 2 quality

I want to see a game about the sidekicks after the events of Arkham Knight and what they were doing maybe individual games for them, I mainly want to see Red Hood

I would have really wanted to Project Sabbath.

“Usually I’m a fan of gaping holes” -Degenerate jay 2023

Id be alright if Roger takes over the mantle, if they keep the Batman games in that Origins era. It's more about doing service to the character, you want to know the character is getting taken care of and is going to thrive. It's not just about the voice actor it's about the company as well. It really sucks to see the last portrayal of a defining actor be in a terrible experience. Leads me to believe that the studio doesn't care about the character and so that character no longer exists, that character died with it's voice actor.

"I'm a fan of massive gaping holes" Bro know what he was doing☠

The Arkham Trilogy... with Origins... is just perfect as is. To me, it's the definitive Batman story. I don't want another game. I can't wait for the Switch rendition though. I 100%ed Asylum, City and Origins back in the day (and technically Knight as well), but I never got to play the Knight Story DLC. I was temporarily unexpectedly homeless when my the job I was working for was liquidated overnight and I had to sell everything.

I honestly would be ok with someone else taking up the cowl, maybe having a place to honor Kevin conroy in the game, but I worry they don’t care anymore

I actually think that Arkham doesn't need a continuation. Despite all Knight flaws it was good ending to the series. Continuing it after so many years is feeling like digging a corpse out of the ground

We are still waiting "Man: the game"

Rino Romano from The Batman 2004 animated series would be a great arkham batman! R.I.P. Kevin Conroy 🤟🏽

RIP kevin

Well I guess we’ll have to see how well both the Arkham trilogy and SS sell. Me personally though I would love to see another Arkham game set after Origins since there’s a large gap there.

They should make a arkham game based on 1989s batman

I’d like to see a prequel kinda year one with a younger sounding voice actor, idk hard to replace Kevin

The only reason I think they are making most games digital is because of the “release half game fix later” practice. Like saints row ,cyberpunk. Many other examples yes they can do it with physical as well, but the devs cannot fully control your physical game. If you don’t want to update then don’t , go offline. Digital your forced to use a internet connection just to play it not to mention the consoles online membership which is getting more expensive.

It would be amazing to have a prequel. They could make a new Arkham game set between Arkham origins and asylum. Having Gotham City look massive and add villians that we haven’t seen yet in the Arkham verse. They should have the Batmobile but not make it into a tank

I personally would love for rocksteady to add more season of imfamy side missions. Have bane, Prometheus, black mask, Mr Zasaz, and Scarface! If they don't want to add them in season of imfamy. Then use them for dlc side stories and have different members of the bat family to deal with them. Adding batwoman would be real cool.

A Deathstroke game would be sick! I saw in origins you can play Deathstroke in the combat simulator, so a Deathstroke game setting place after Arkham knight would be sick!

I think it should continue

If they made a Batman Beyond video game you can easily recast Kevin by having a different actor give a more aged approach to Bruce Wayne.

After Gotham knights, you already kno ain’t nobody gonna care about this suicide squad game

To me in a time where the Spiderman games are some of the hugest releases for PlayStation now is the perfect time for a new arkham entry. If wb is smart they would see the trend of classic game full remakes at the minute (resident evil, dead space, etc) and remake arkham origins from the ground up maybe even make a few plothole tweaks to help fix the arkham timeline that the original messed up, see how it performs and then if it performs really well then use it as the launching off the for a sequel. Imagine a arkham origins sequel let’s call it arkham begins where the whole entirety of Gotham is playable including Wayne manor ,arkham asylum etc. you have loads of villains that people have always been teased in arkham such as ventriloquist, Prometheus, killer moth, calendar man etc. Batmobile is playable but it’s pursuit mode only. Robin is fully integrated with dual play throughout the whole story and maybe they use the nemesis system I just think the reception for a game like that would be wild I then think in a third game you could go really wild and play with batman visiting other dc cities as a concept such as metropolis and and central city and then a fourth and final game doing batman beyond like we have a so much more for this franchise to give

The future state (a bit of a joke there if you follow Batman comics) of the Arkhamverse; great topic. It’s all but dead at this point, especially with Kevin Conroy gone. But I do see several paths forward for this continuity. Arkhamverse Beyond, Arkhamverse Rebirth, & Arkhamverse Chronicles. Beyond would focus on Terry McGinnis & Damian Wayne. Rebirth would build a new verse from Arkham Origins & Blackgate. And Chronicles could be about the greater Batfamily; both interring canon into the original timeline & creating new canon within other versions of the larger Arkham Multiverse.

They would make bank if they released another DLC for Knight. Even after alnost a decade. Personally i wanna see something based around a completely silent/mysterious Nightmare Batman mixed with a Gotham by Gaslight mini story. Maybe having to do with an original character based around Spring Heeled Jack instead of Jack the Ripper (Because that was originally based off Joker)

Rocksteady is one of the most talented developers out there. I'd imagine that developing a live service game was something that Warner Brothers pushed rather than it being something Rocksteady actually wanted to do. Hate to see it, we all saw how this went with Bioware and EA. Still hoping that Suicide squad turns out well but even if it doesn't, i hope rocksteady will be given more creative freedom in future titles, seeing how Single Player games have seen a massive surge in popularity while live service games are flopping left and right.

Such hard questions.. Kevin was Batman, and Arkham Batman was as close to a live-action as we could have had. The “Batman ‘89” demo game should be made as well. Such a great concept that needs to be released for new fans and old alike. If anything, I’ve noticed a sabotage of DC properties and ip’s over the past years. Not sure how to help there.. Support the Arkham-verse!

I guess when it comes to revisiting/continuing things it comes down to quality. I'd rather not have something done than a really bad job done. If there's no expectations of quality in the product - an engaging game, a gripping storyline.. All other things are secondary. So I view it as 'if they did one, would you expect it to be as good' as the first line. If you don't have that expectation of quality, then no. I'd rather enjoy it and know it's always there, I can take out the games, I can take out the DVD's.. And enjoy it. Not have something come out that's really bad and takes away my appreciation. And that makes me wary a bit given the current state of WB/Discovery/etc. If there's a chance for a quality product? I'll preorder it just to help give support. If not? Would rather not have something be done that will be bad.

It can't be done again as Kevin is no longer with us

Would love to see Arkham Asylum & city remake from the ground up with ps5 graphics

as much as i would love to see something new from arkhamverse i don't wanna see live service games and i feel like even if it would be another batman game it would not be the same again

I agree with actual digital and solid copies because the only way i can play arkham orgins currently is through the playstation cloud play service, which demands high-quality internet which means everytime i want to play it i have to use my mobile data which i dislike because it just eats up my mobile data like candy

Batman Beyond is the only way to level up with a. Very vertical city structure. Unfortunately we lost Kevin conroy. I still feel like we should have had this game by now instead of suicide squad.

A Batman Beyond would be 🔥🔥

I would MUCH prefer origins sequels that keep it Gotham, vs squeezing JL in to that world in any major way.\m/ Give me an origins sequel before any other ideas. Origins sequels erase the Conroy issue (he didn't voice Batman in Origins), while giving fans more of what they are after. Every sequel could focus on 1 major villain, with appearances from others in side quests. Imagine every sequel REALLY focusing on 1 major bad guy. Would expand things greatly.

I also can’t decide if I want to buy suicide squad or not

What I’d want is a game with all the Arkham Knight mechanics but set in a different art style from the comics. Like a wacky 1950s Gotham City. Or the Dark Knight Returns 80s style Gotham. Or the 1800s from Gotham By the Gaslight.

I want a borderlands art style arkham knight sized animated series batman game where u can use the bat bike bat mobile and the bat jet similar too akrham knight where u have a huge list of missions vs tons of villains

You're so right about when people say "just let them move on to something else" when there is such a great structure already in the arkham series and everyone loves it. The potential is unreal and they just left it.

As a Fan of the Arkham Series and being that I've grown up most my life playing asylum and city and being an obsessed little kid with them like I was as well with fallout 3 New Vegas and 4, the assassin's Creed series, I genuinely want it to continue, but unlike fallout and assassin's Creed, I don't want Arkham to spiral downward and become stupid, I want it to stay true to the raw nostalgic power the originals had, that same sense and vibe, that beauty, hell, I'd be foaming at the mouth if they went back to cities and asylums game engine, just to really give the feels, and a classic Batman V joker story that reminisces the games we love
