Knowing that Batman: Arkham Shadow is indeed another entry into Batmans most prolific and seminal video game adaptation gives it a lot of responsibility to shoulder. Anyone whos witnessed the controversial events of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is aware of Batmans death in the canon, suggesting no further present-day games could be made with the character as their lead unless other multiverse shenanigans are wrought. Batman: Arkham Shadow, on the other hand, is a Bat Signal in the night sky that gives hope to the Arkhamverse community for a continuation of the series in prequel installments.
