Story

Someone is orchestrating a plan to take over Gotham—manipulating its most dangerous criminals, corrupting the justice system, and pushing the city toward mass anarchy. No one knows who’s behind it. You play this story as The Batman, not Bruce Wayne. Violence is spiking, and people are disappearing. Street-level intel points to The Penguin, Black Mask, and Victor Zsasz making sudden, aggressive moves. Something bigger is at play. Strange graffiti, distorted laughter in radio chatter, and clown masks scattered around crime scenes suggest a familiar madness—but nothing conclusive. Main Objectives 1. Raid Penguin’s smuggling ring at the docks. 2. Stop Zsasz’s spree killings targeting police families. 3. Final Quest: Infiltrate a Black Mask fundraiser for corrupt mayoral candidate, Harvey Dent. Rewards from defeated enemies are clues or materials used to create gadgets with Lucius. Side Story Commissioner Gordon has been suspended for opposing a harsh anti-vigilante order—backed by officials secretly on a criminal payroll. Help him gather evidence, clear his name, and retain GCPD support before they’re turned against you. Reward: Police Beacon-summons a GCPD ally to join the party and fight with you. NPC Contacts • Lucius Fox: Provides gear upgrades through Wayne Enterprises. • Alfred Pennyworth: Alerts you of any intel. Helps analyze intel and connect clues. • Jim Gordon: Access to GCPD. After the Final Quest, you receive a cryptic message from The Joker-the mastermind.
