More about Batman™: Arkham Origins
The press gave it 74; the people who bought it give it 90 percent. A 16-point gap in the buyer's favour.
This site sampled 800 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 7 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written July 2025 to October 2026. That is fewer refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 1,424 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 1,193 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 71 percent of the 2,244 reviews written there were positive, against 90 percent overall, and those are 5 percent of everything written about it. It sells extras on top of the sticker price (time-limited); the score docks it lightly for that.
The main story runs 12.5 hours. Doing everything runs 41, 3.3 times as long.

What drives the score
Grades: S best, D weakest
S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work
What players say
getting the proximity detonator locked me out of finishing a certain challenge, how do you design garbage this bad lmao

Decent story but riddled with bugs and clunky combat. Also, as with the other Arkham games the amount of collectables is a joke.
I want whatever the people who say to skip this one are smoking. This is the best superhero game I've ever played. Batman in this game is the tuffest mf alive. He is so cold. The way he carries himself, the voice. He was an absolute menace. The boss fights are amazing, the story is great, and the cutscenes go HAARD. I genuinely don't understand how people can tell you to skip this one. This game is ABSOLUTE CINEMA.
