Each game revolves around the inmates of the infamous Arkham Asylum, the mental institution that holds (or [[CardboardPrison fails to hold]]) all of Batman's insane foes. ''Asylum'' has the Joker seizing control of Arkham Island and freeing all the other inmates, including the Bat-rogues. ''City'' takes place a year later, with Batman caught up in a plan to imprison Arkham's inmates in a walled-off area of Gotham City that includes pivotal locations in Batman's history, including [[DeathByOriginStory Crime Alley]] and [[CreateYourOwnVillain Ace Chemicals]]. ''Origins'' is a {{prequel}} detailing how Batman first met several of his enemies, including Joker, Bane, Deadshot, and the Riddler. ''Knight'' is the alleged finale of the series, in which Batman battles Scarecrow and an alliance of villains as they attempt to burn Gotham City to the ground.
The main games are third-person ActionAdventure with a WideOpenSandbox component, with a heavy emphasis on movement, combat against multiple foes simultaneously, and stealth-based type of gameplay. Batman has the ability to glide and use his GrapplingHookPistol to scale up and down most buildings and structures. Batman also has "detective mode", a special vision that highlights objects and people of interest. A [[RPGElements levelling system]] also allows the player to enhance Batman's various abilities over time, with points based highly on the player's performance in combat or stealth sections.
The games are famous for introducing the "Freeflow combat system" based around three main actions: Attack, Stun, and Counter. Similar gameplay styles have now been incorporated into many other games, most notably ''[[Videogame/MiddleEarthShadowOfMordor Shadow of Mordor]]'', ''VideoGame/SleepingDogs'', and ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolidV''.

** For enemies, some of the most effective tools in their arsenals aren't guns, mines, or anything high tech -- instead, knives and shields. Enemies wielding them have attacks that can't be countered or require a precise input to counter (which may be locked behind upgrades), Batman can't attack into them easily since knife-wielding enemies will dodge away and shields will block his normal strikes, and in ''Arkham Knight'' they can't be disabled with the disruptor prior to getting into a fight.

In spite of this, their unique styles, such as being able to use the Escrima Sticks around corners and the Wrist Dart potentially being a OneHitKO, add a completely new dimension to the predator challenges and open up a lot of new creative avenues if you get used to them.
