Batman: Arkham Trilogy on Switch pays tribute to Kevin Conroy

Co-chairman and co-CEO of DC Studios James Gunn has said Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League won't be the last we see of the Arkham Universe.

The Ace Attorney series is a relatively new one for us on Planet PlayStation (can we bring that back?), with the original three games launching on PS4 in 2019 — long after they first arrived on western shores. We're now fully acquainted with the Phoenix Wright trilogy, but what happened next? While there have been a fair few spin-offs and side stories, a second trio of main titles introduced new characters and plot lines. Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy brings those to PS4 in another collection, and after going hands on, it seems we're in for more of the same batty, and brilliant, legal drama nonsense.

Batman: Arkham Knight owners can now cosplay as Robert Pattinson’s caped crusader from The Batman, with a free skin available for all versions of the game. If you’re having a bit of déjà vu right now, it’s because that Batman costume was released (and then retracted) in the Epic Games Store release of Arkham Knight way back in October, and was also made available in the Nintendo Switch collection that just came out.

Baldur's Gate 3 director Swen Vincke has shared his Game Awards acceptance speech in full, after he was cut short at the ceremony last week.

For a lot of people, including myself, Kevin Conroy was the Batman. A lot of you might've known him from the Arkham Trilogy—I myself was first introduced to him via Justice League: Unlimited. He was the voice of Batman for over three decades before he died after a short battle with cancer in November last year, age 66. As spotted by Eurogamer, a tribute has been added to the Batman: Arkham Trilogy, though it's only presently confirmed to be on the Nintendo Switch version. Gamingbible editor Ewan Moore posted a screenshot of the tribute on Twitter, which reads: «In memory of Kevin Conroy.»

Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy collects another trifecta of Capcom's over-the-top legal capers, with a court date of 25th January 2024 on PS4. We got a glimpse of the trials that await in a new trailer detailing some of the extras on offer, and pre-orders are available now.

Batman: Arkham Knight is being updated next month with the suit worn by Robert Pattinson in last year's film The Batman. Arriving on 15th December 2023, the suit will actually be available first in the new Nintendo Switch version of Batman: Arkham Trilogy, but will then be offered as a free download to PS4 players and PS5 owners using backwards compatibility.

Batman has a long video game history, dating back to his debut on the Amstrad in 1986. However, the Caped Crusader's games started to take off in 2009 with Arkham Asylum. The subsequent Arkham series consists of possibly the best superhero games out there.

For better or worse, the Nintendo Switch version of the includes many changes from the games' original versions. The series actually consists of four primary games released between 2009 and 2015:,,, and. The Switch collection includes three of the above, leaving out the prequel .

The Switch version of Batman: Arkham Knight is an “unmitigated disaster”, according to a new technical analysis by Digital Foundry.

Last week, the Batman: Arkham trilogy zipped onto the Nintendo Switch at long last, bringing Kevin Conroy's turn as the iconic Dark Knight to the world of handheld. There is one extra addition to the game, with, with Warner Bros. Games adding a tribute in his memory to the end credits. following his passing in November 2022.

December is here, and that means some of you might be going for video games that are “on your wishlist” or possibly thinking about getting games that you weren’t sure about before but want to take a chance on since there are no big releases across the main systems for this month. There was one release that kicked off December, though, and that’s the Batman Arkham Trilogy for Nintendo Switch. The port of the beloved Rocksteady games had gamers curious, if nothing else, when it was announced. But when you see the comparisons to other systems, it seems the Switch port has once again come up short.
