Epic Games celebrates Batman’s anniversary

Epic Games celebrates Batman’s anniversary

Whether you're following us or not (we thank you if it's the case) you must already know that Steam's increasingly fierce competitor, namely Epic Games, offers games every week. And this week, it must be said that Epic Games has gone overboard, offering you not one, not two, but SIX games. Pretty nice, isn't it?

There is a good reason for this generosity. One of the most famous superheroes celebrates his 80th anniversary this year, and it's no other than Batman, aka Bruce Wayne. Although the hero is an eternal forty-something, the Batman character appeared for the first time in 1939 in Detective comics Nº. 27 and was created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger.

The historical point being made, let us come to the heart of the subject that interests us today. Epic Games offers us six Batman games divided into two packages. The first contains the LEGO Batman trilogy, with LEGO Batman: The videogame, LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes, and LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham. The other three games are from the Batman Arkham Collection which includes the Batman Arkham trilogy developed by Rocksteady studio, formed by Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman: Arkham City and Batman: Arkham Knight.

 

 

The Batman Arkham series has been very well received by the players, especially the first game, that managed to enter the Guinness World Records as "the highest-rated superhero game of all time by the specialized press". The three games of the Arkham series, are adventure action games with infiltration phases, and they are known for being quite dark games. This contrasts with the LEGO Batman games offered by Epic Games which, being LEGO games, have this humorous touch characteristic of the license.

 

 

All you need to do to claim these six Batman games is visiting the Epic Game Store before September 26th.
