Scarecrow, with the help of the mysterious Arkham Knight, plots to unite all of Gotham's criminals in an attempt to finally destroy Batman.

Set nine months after the events of Arkham City, the game's main storyline follows Batman as he confronts Scarecrow, who has launched an attack on Gotham City and caused a citywide evacuation. Written by Sefton Hill, Ian Ball and Martin Lancaster, Arkham Knight is inspired by the long-running comic book mythos. Based on the DC Comics superhero Batman, it is the successor to the 2013 video game Batman: Arkham Origins, a direct sequel to Batman: Arkham City (2011) and the fourth main installment in the Batman: Arkham series. When 3D Vision and PhysX come together, Batman: Arkham Asylum truly shows what a stunning experience PC gaming can be.Batman: Arkham Knight is a 2015 action-adventure game developed by Rocksteady Studios and published by Warner Bros.

Gliding through Arkham's exterior feels open and expansive. Characters and effects seem to leap out of the screen. 3D Vision brings to life special portions of the game such as Batman's detective mode.

Rocksteady also worked with Nvidia to make sure Batman: Arkham Asylum takes full advantage of 3D Vision. As Batman interacts with the world, the aging asylum creates a more immersive, believable world which really draws the player in." In the words of Sefton Hill, game director at Rocksteady Studios: "supporting Nvidia PhysX technology has allowed us to add that little bit extra to the PC version of the game. With SPH, volumetric smoke and fog realistically swirl around characters as they pass through, creating a more dynamic game experience. Due to the complexity of this algorithm, high quality SPH simulations can only be performed in real-time on a PhysX capable GPU. The PC version of the gram features realistic, volumetric fog using a physical simulation technique called smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH). Newspapers float and shuffle underneath your feet and cobwebs tear apart as you walk though them.

When PhysX is enabled in Batman: Arkham Asylum, litter collides and crashes around the environment while wall tiles crack and crumble on impact during battle. 3D Vision support was also added to provide a deeply immersive experience. Not content with simply porting over the console version, the team at Rocksteady added PhysX to the game for realistic destruction, fog, and cloth. The PC version of Batman: Arkham Asylum is truly a unique experience.
