Ever been scrolling through the PS Store and something just jumps out at you? Not sure why, but the Batman: Arkham Collection did it for me. Maybe I’m just a sucker for sales. Or Batman. Who knows.
Okay, so — stay with me here — the whole Arkham Collection is, like, 90% off. How wild is that? Rocksteady, the brain behind these games, slapped a crazy discount on the bundle. Honestly, $5.99 for a series that usually costs around $60 feels like daylight robbery. It’s like getting each game for about $2. Two bucks! You can’t even get coffee for that price.
Anyway, you’ve got Batman: Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, and Arkham Knight all up for grabs. PS4 and PS5 players, y’all might wanna jump on this fast. Sale ends July 31 at exactly 2:59 a.m. ET — don’t look at me, I didn’t set the time.
Oh, right. The collection blurb basically says you’ll experience two of the last gen’s most celebrated titles, Arkham Asylum and City, now looking all spiffy with their visual updates. And don’t forget Arkham Knight, which wraps up the series with a bang. Gear up as Batman, with all his gadgets and gizmos — and let’s be real, who doesn’t want all that — facing Gotham’s baddest baddies.
Critically, these games were fire back in the day. Metacritic — the site I swear by till today, even if you don’t — rates Arkham City the highest at 94. Knight drags a bit with an 87, but hey, nothing’s perfect. Despite any flaws, this series left a permanent mark on the gaming world. Major trendsetter, this one. And now it’s just sitting there on sale… like it’s no big deal.
