If you&#8217;re wanting to go through the story chronologically, this will put your starting point at 2013&#8217;s Batman: Arkham Origins. However, because Origins was released years after the first game, it could potentially spoil the older games for you. If you want to experience the series by release date, you&#8217;d want to start with Batman: Arkham Asylum.<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"commerce-deal\" data-slug=\"batman-games-in-order\" data-type=\"grid\"><\/section>\n<h2 id=\"chronological-order\">Batman Arkham Games in Chronological Order<\/h2>\n<p>Below we\u2019ve outlined two ways to approach the Batman: Arkham games: chronologically by release date or chronologically by narrative. The choice is yours, and both possible paths are outlined below, beginning with the narrative chronology. <\/p>\n<p>With series newcomers in mind, these brief plot synopses contain only mild spoilers such as broad plot points and character introductions.<\/p>\n<h2>1.

Set on Christmas Eve in a snow-covered Gotham, Origins stars a less-experienced Batman who finds himself with a $50 million bounty on his head, drawing the attention of Gotham\u2019s finest criminals: the Joker, Black Mask, The Penguin, Mad Hatter, Bane, Deadshot, Firefly, and Killer Croc, among others. The ending hints at the reopening of Arkham Asylum, setting up the future events of Rocksteady\u2019s game of the same name.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Origins stars Roger Craig Smith as Batman and Troy Baker as the Joker, subbing in for Arkham\u2019s regular superstar duo of Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill. While the Arkhamverse was established by Rocksteady Studios, Origins was developed by WB Montreal, the studio behind Gotham Knights. <\/p>\n<p>A mobile version of Arkham Origins was also released. While it plays much differently than its console counterpart \u2014 it\u2019s a brawler developed by Mortal Kombat studio NeatherRealm \u2014 it hits the same narrative beats.<\/p>\n<aside>\n<p><strong>Available on:<\/strong> PS3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PC | <strong>IGN\u2019s<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/v\/\"><u>Batman: Arkham Origins Wiki<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<h2>2.

It\u2019s essentially a free-to-play Gotham gang recruiter, in which you build a criminal hideout, recruit henchmen, and do battle. Kevin Conroy reprises his role as Batman following the mainline Arkham trilogy.<\/p>\n<p>Arkham Underworld is set sometime before Arkham Asylum, though it possesses little importance to the overall Arkhamverse narrative \u2014 which is fortunate considering it\u2019s <strong>no longer available to download<\/strong> (Arkham Underworld was shut down in 2017, only a year after it was released).<\/p>\n<h2>Bonus: Batman: Assault on Arkham<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2022\/10\/14\/assault-on-arkham-1665776368423.jpeg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2022\/10\/14\/assault-on-arkham-1665776368423.jpeg\" class=\"article-image-full-size\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/2014\/08\/12\/batman-assault-on-arkham-review\"><u>Batman: Assault on Arkham<\/u><\/a> is an animated film set in the Arkhamverse, roughly two years before Arkham Asylum.
