Intro/Outro[]
INTRO: The Bat Plane is seen soaring through the night sky, jets ablaze. The hatch on the stomach of the plane opens and something shoots out of it. Batman lands in a crouch in the arena, before standing and glaring at his opponent.
OUTRO: Batman ties the defeated opponent to a lamp post, haning them upside down. "Tell them it was Batman," he says, before zipping off into the rainy night.
Gameplay[]
Batman is a gadget type character, and is recommended as a tutorial character for those who prefer gadget characters (Superman being the counter with Power characters).
- Batman is an up close and personal character. His move set allows him to go for quick and easy stun shots, which allow him to move in and attack with lengthy, high damage combos.
- Batman's biggest weakness is his lack of range. His move set is more of a close quarters type of fighting style, and going up against characters like Green Arrow or Deathstroke (ranged charcters), can prove to be difficult.
- Batman has an average walk speed as well as relatively fast dash which covers some distance, he also has the ability to glide in air and has a number of options for what to do out of this.
- From a glide, he can either dive kick down for an offensive follow up or glide back to protect him from potential danger, he can also glide forward for a cross up attack.
- By performing the enhanced version of his horizontal batclaw attack, he can cancel it mid way before he follows up with a kick to stun and get close to his opponent and follow up with new combo possibilities.
Throw[]
Forward Throw: Batman grabs the character by the head, slams an explosive Batarang into the side of their head and kicks them forward.
Reverse Throw: Batman grabs the character by the head, slams an explosive Batarang into the side of their head and then kicks them to the other side of the arena.
Character Trait[]
Sonic Batarangs: Batman's character trait is the ability to use three sonic Batarangs amidst the battle. This is a very good trait for a character like Batman, who isn't a very ranged character. If Batman's having trouble moving in, he can activate his Batarangs. The Batarangs work like this: they don't actually have to hit the opponent, though this does damage. The Batarangs emit blue sonic waves that are visible on the screen and last for 5 seconds. If these waves hit the opponent (they start to emit as soon as they hit the ground, or the opponent), he or she will be stunned instantly. They will stand there in a dizzying state, unable to move. This is Batman's opportunity to move in and unleash with a flurry of combos. It is also a great defensive trick as it can stop an oncoming opponent who has the upper hand in battle.
Super Move[]
The Dark Knight Returns: Batman grapples towards his opponent, slamming into their chest and sending them across the arena. He flicks three Batarang's into their chest, and as they explode he calls in an air strike from the Batwing. As the last Batarang explodes, he uppercuts the opponent in the jaw, elbows them in the stomach, and flips back as the opponent is hit with a massive concussion bomb. His super move does 33.35 damage and is 9 hits.
Ending[]
Prior to the battle against Superman and his World Monarchy, Batman returned to Gotham City...only to find it in a wrose state than he had left it. Screams and cries filled the night as fire raged across the gothic spires of the once great chapels. The citie's residents, inspired by Batman's recent triumphs over the tyranic rule of the metahumans, had revolted against the city's government. As Gotham burned, Batman watched as a black flag with his symbol on it waved in the moonlight...
Explained: Batman returns to Gotham City after his battle against the World Monarchy to find his city in dissaray. The people have revolted against the police and the government, and risen a flag in honor of their idol: Batman.
