Batman: Arkham Knight walkthrough and guide

Our complete walkthrough for Batman: Arkham Knight, along with collectible and gameplay guides to help you get the most out of the game.

Six years after it all began in the claustrophobic confines of Arkham Asylum, Rocksteady sees out its Batman storyline with Arkham Knight - an expansive, rich open world adventure that sees the story out with the finest flourish. The Batmobile's along for the ride for the first time, and so is the kind of shininess we associate with the new generation of consoles, but more importantly Batman's back in all his bruising, brutal glory.

Our guide for the game begins with a complete walkthrough for the main story. It goes without saying that there'll be absolutely shedloads of spoilers sprinkled amongst this guide, so we've broken it down into as many discrete chunks as possible, so you can dip in and get only what you want from it.

We'll also be fleshing out this guide with plenty of other useful bits of information over the coming days as well, from completing specific challenges, to tracking down hard-to-reach collectible items as you explore the world.

Batman: Arkham Knight walkthrough

Once you've tapped a few buttons and said a fiery goodbye to an old foe, the game's faintly interactive opening cut-scene begins. As soon as you're back on your feet, make your way toward the cheeky blighter smoking a cigarette in the far booth by the window. Interact with him, then ready yourself for one hell of an opening to Batman's latest adventure.


Most Wanted: City of Fear

Primary Objective: Stop Scarecrow from detonating the Fear Toxin bomb

Meet Commissioner Gordon by the Bat-Signal on the GCPD rooftop

Eventually, you'll be reacquainted with the dark knight himself, high atop a radio tower overlooking Gotham City. Your first task is to locate Commissioner Gordon, currently waiting on a rooftop near the Bat Signal in the distance. Leap off the building and glide toward your destination, using the waypoint marker to guide you to your rendezvous point.

If you begin to lose momentum on your travels, don't forget that you can dive to the earth and pull back up to glide higher and faster. Of course, you've full access to your trusty Grapnel Boost too, enabling you to latch onto distant objects and zip through the air at ludicrous speeds.

Once you reach your destination, Gordon will fill you in on the current Scarecrow situation, pointing you in the direction of your next lead.

Rescue the missing police office

With the frankly overwhelming expanse of Gotham spread before you, it's time to start your hunt for Unit 247. Locate the waypoint marker then hop down off your perch, gliding toward your new goal. On your arrival, follow the prompts and begin picking off the swarm of goons surrounding the police officer using a selection of strikes and counters. Once the last enemy has been felled, interact with Unit 247 to proceed.

Next, follow the on-screen prompt to even the odds in just about the flashiest way imaginable. When you're safely ensconced in the Batmobile, hit accelerate and start your journey through the streets, taking time to familiarise yourself with the car's controls.

Interrogate the driver of the military vehicle for information on Scarecrow

Once you're up to (eye watering) speed, track down the armoured truck by following the moving waypoint marker through the city. You can also use the convenient guide arrows on the ground to navigate the streets more efficiently. Roar along the rain-slicked roads until you've caught up with the military vehicle.

Once you're close enough to your target, the Batmobile's weapons targeting system automatically begins locking on. Fire a missile when prompted to dish out some considerable damage, then adjust your position, ready to lock on again. When you've got the truck in your sights a second time, launch another strike. Repeat the process until the van comes to a dramatic stop.

Finally, exit the Batmobile, locate the driver lying on the ground near his decimated van, then begin the interrogation.

Investigate the Scarecrow's safe house

Once the vial of Scarecrow's toxin is yours, summon the Batmobile again and hop inside. Follow the waypoint marker until you reach your destination, then disembark.

Scarecrow's safe house lies in the penthouse atop the nearby Tanaga Dojo building. Grapple your way up the side until you reach its ornate peak. Climb to the very top and locate the ceiling window leading down into the building. Glide kick your way in, then take care of the thugs below.

Say hello to Poison Ivy then, back out in the rain, prepare to bring down the gathering militia with a bit of high tech ingenuity. Follow the on-screen prompts to bring up your quick menu and activate the Batmobile Remote.

Destroy the incoming drone tanks

Six unmanned tanks are marauding through Gotham's streets towards your position and you'll need to deal with them quickly. Activate Battle Mode as instructed, then make use of the Batmobile's onboard Vulcan Gun and 60mm Cannon. Familiarise yourself with the mode's controls then, once the tanks make their presence known, start picking them off one by one.

As you do, you'll notice thin blue lines emanating from your opponents' gun turrets - these denote the drone's targeting system. Stray into a line and it turns red; stay there too long and the tank will successfully lock on to your position and fire.

Given that the Batmobile's armour only offers a limited amount of protection, you should aim to keep moving during the fight to prevent your enemies from successfully locking on.

Once you've obliterated all six drones, head toward the waypoint marker and park your vehicle on top of the glowing square on the ground. To complete the sequence, deactivate Battle Mode so that Batman and Poison Ivy can safely climb onboard.

Run Battle Mode weapon energy system diagnostics

Back in the driving seat, follow the waypoint marker until you reach the glowing green icon ahead. Come to a halt close by and begin the Weapon Energy Diagnostics training challenge.


Training Mission: Weapon Energy Diagnostics

Here, your task is to charge your secondary weapon's energy gauge by destroying the enemy targets. Once the gauge is full, you're able to activate the Batmobile's Missile Barrage ability.

For the first part of your training, all targets are completely stationary. Activate Battle Mode and use your primary and secondary weapons to take them out one by one until your Missile Barrage Level 1 is ready. To bring the objective to a close, launch your Missile Barrage at a nearby vehicle.

Next, you need to reach Missile Barrage Level 2, enabling you to target up to four vehicles at once. As before, take down the still-stationary targets until both Missile Barrage gauges are full. Finally, follow the on-screen prompts to destroy four vehicles simultaneously.

The third part of the challenge is designed to illustrate how your Missile Barrage gauge depletes whenever you take damage. This time around, your targets are much more spritely - avoid their incoming attacks and return fire of your own. When your Missile Barrage is charged, deploy it to successfully destroy four active targets and end the mission, earning you your first upgrade point.

Destroy the squadron of drone tanks occupying the Panessa Studios

With training over, it's time to put your new-found firing skills to good use, taking out the deadly drone tanks swarming the Panessa Studios a short distance away. Slam the accelerator and head in the direction of the waypoint marker. The route ahead is full of sharp turns, so now is as good a time as any to practice your power-sliding skills.

When you reach your destination, activate Battle Mode and begin laying waste to the horde of drone tanks rampaging around the area. Remember to keep an eye out for the enemy's lock-on attacks and strafe to avoid them. Don't forget, too, that you can bring down multiple targets at once as soon as your Missile Barrage is charged.

Take Ivy to the GCPD Lockup

With the streets a little safer, you're ready to drop Ivy off with the good old Gotham City Police Department. Follow the waypoint marker back through the city and drive through the gate once you arrive at your destination. On the other side, follow the tunnel down to the parking lot and disembark to proceed.

Once Ivy is safely locked away, take a few moments to explore the police station (and its impressive Evidence Archive) and listen in to the various conversations going on around you. When you're ready to continue, approach Commissioner Gordon at the Maximum Security desk to get a status update on Gotham's Scarecrow problem.

As soon as the cut-scene is over, you'll gain access to the mission select screen. Bring it up to examine the missions currently available to you: The Line of Duty (requiring you to track down the missing members of the Station 17 fire crew), The Perfect Crime, Riddler's Revenge and City of Fear. Note that selecting a mission sets the relevant waypoint for you to follow back outside.

Before continuing on with the main story, it's worth tackling the first part of Riddler's Revenge mission. Set a waypoint marker as instructed, then, once out of the menu, pass between the security gates and make your way through the door into the cells.

You can speak to Jack Ryder in the interview room to the left if you wish, adding his bio info to your Wayne Tech menu. Speaking of which, consider taking a moment to familiarise yourself with the menu screen if you haven't already - it contains your map, the Batcomputer character bio and Gotham City Stories screen, as well as the Wayne Tech upgrade tree, enabling you to spend upgrade points on improving your abilities, gadgets, weapons, Batsuit and Batmobile.

Once you're ready to proceed, work your way along the corridor past the holding cells and out into the parking lot. Hop into the Batmobile (prompting Lucius Fox to bring the frankly ludicrous afterburner function online), then prepare to hunt down the Riddler at his last known location.
