The Dark Knight once enjoyed a seemingly endless stream of video game adaptations, with a new title appearing almost annually. Rocksteady's acclaimed Arkham series, in particular, revolutionized superhero gaming, setting a high bar that continues to influence the genre.

Though comic book fans have a wealth of upcoming superhero games to anticipate, those seeking to don the cowl will need to explore the back catalog to discover the best Batman games.
