Batman, a globally recognized superhero, returns in the immersive VR experience, Batman: Arkham Shadow. This Meta Quest 3 exclusive allows players to embody the Dark Knight, facing Gotham’s notorious villains in first-person combat. But what about PSVR2 and other platforms? Let’s explore the current situation.
PSVR2 Release Unlikely, For Now
Currently, Batman: Arkham Shadow is not slated for release on PSVR2 or any other VR platform beyond Meta Quest 3. Developer Camouflaj has confirmed the game’s exclusivity, although the possibility of a timed exclusive agreement remains. While no official announcements suggest a PSVR2 launch, Batman’s widespread popularity and the game’s unique VR gameplay could lead to a broader release in the future.
Meta Quest 3 and 3S Exclusive
The game is also unavailable on previous Meta Quest headsets. To experience Batman: Arkham Shadow, a Meta Quest 3 or Meta Quest 3S is required. However, a compelling incentive exists: anyone purchasing either headset between September 25, 2024, and April 30, 2025, receives the game for free. This presents a prime opportunity for those eager to don the cowl and patrol Gotham’s shadowy streets in virtual reality.
Embracing the Darkness on Meta Quest 3
For now, Batman: Arkham Shadow offers a compelling reason to dive into the world of Meta Quest 3. Stepping into the Dark Knight’s boots and experiencing the gritty reality of Gotham City in VR is a unique and enticing prospect for Batman fans. While a wider release remains a possibility, embracing the darkness currently resides solely within the Meta Quest 3 ecosystem.
