Use a Potion: 10 / 10

Batman: Arkham Shadow is simply superb, with it capturing the action, the storytelling, and the world design of the Arkham series perfectly. With its innovative and exciting combat, immersive moments that make you really feel like you are Batman, and the engaging narrative that pulls you into the life of both the Caped Crusader and Bruce Wayne, it truly stands out as one of the best Batman titles that has ever released. And you know what? I think it might be the best VR game that has ever released too.

Gaming Nexus: 8 / 10 by Eric Hauter

At times, Arkham Shadow is the coolest VR game ever made. But a bevy of game-stopping bugs and some of the sharpest difficulty spikes I've ever encountered keep this bat from immediately soaring. An incredible - and incredibly gorgeous - VR translation of core Arkham mechanics, but still too rough around the edges for such a prestige franchise. Give it a couple of weeks and it will be a nigh-perfect experience, but it's a shame it's releasing in this condition.
