For many it didn’t sound possible, but having played through about half of Batman: Arkham Shadow I can confidently say that developer Camouflaj has smashed even the lofty expectations they set for themselves out of the park. This title isn’t just on track to be the best Meta Quest or best VR game of 2024, it could simply be the best game of 2024.
Camouflaj could have made things easy for themselves. Instead, they lit up the Bat Signal, stared down the barrel of the internet, and boldly claimed they – in partnership with Meta – would be bringing a full-on, all-new, AAA-worthy entry in the wildly popular Arkhamverse series to VR, and it would run on the standalone Meta Quest 3. No PC or console is required.
