[@JoJoDOOM95]

you can say underworld is canon by saying he got killed

[@WarpingFist]

but I don’t want to be dead, I want to rule Gotham.

[@HOTD108_]

​@@WarpingFist Too bad. You don't get to choose whether or not you're killed off. The game is easily acceptable as canon.

[@henrygambles3652]

@@WarpingFist from what I understand the canonical explanation is that crime boss actually retired, yeah it’s underwhelming but it’s what is used to explain why he never appears again!

Can't believe they brought back professor milo and he looks exactly like the animated version

[@dumbage]

i’ve been trying to play that one, if i get an old a android and download an apk can i play it?

[@Dagoodtree]

I remember playing Arkham underworld back in the day, it was the best time of my life

[@WarpingFist]

I played it because I wanted to find a game similar to ‘Galaxy Life’ I liked it but not as peak.

[@Robert-fr9wl]

PLEASE GOD THERE HAS TO BE WAY TO REPLAY ARKHAM UNDERWORLD!!😢

[@Slickmin115]

Also Arkham city lockdown has a cameo from kano from MK.

[@captainredducky2151]

The Arkham Origins mobile game was actually my introduction to the Arkham series, glad to see the games getting some attention

[@WarpingFist]

When you can’t play real thing so you gotta play the mobile games. My condolences.

[@LIVEREGAL]

@@WarpingFistlmfao bro u know that it took place 9 years after asylum that’s what it said

[@hattoripool1533]

I always found it a missed opportunity how the Mobile games, tie in comics and Assault on Arkham movies aren’t canon. It could have added so much more to the Arkham Universe, so much more then what the games have showed

[@WarpingFist]

I guess it’s just difficult to manage the continuity of the universe.

[@cydia1720]

the movie is canon they confirmed it

[@BaneStopMotion]

@@cydia1720it’s not because of suicide squad and also bane is in Arkham asylum before asylum happens which doesn’t make sense

[@averagebat761]

The comics always conflict with the games

[@JoeChard]

The comics are secondary canon so some of it is canon but anything that conflicts with the games you kind of just have to ignore

[@PizzaMan879]

I wish Arkham Underworld was still active and supported. There was so much potential that it sadly will never get to achieve. 😔

[@WarpingFist]

Yeah, shame that not a lot of people played it.

[@PizzaMan879]

@@WarpingFist They truly did miss out since it was a pretty cool game. It’s certainly a better Arkhamverse villain experience than Sucko Squad: Kill the Arkhamverse.🤮

PLEAZE GOD SOMEONE ANYONE! WE MUST BRING BACK ARKHAM UNDERWORLD

[@henrygambles3652]

Glad to see someone else remembers Lockdown I thought it was a Fever dream!

[@pintel1234]

@@henrygambles3652 ah right I forgot about those Easter eggs

[@negligible_reality]

Rather than seeing these games as entirely "not canon" and "never happening", I prefer to see them as being canon but not in the MAIN Arkhamverse timeline. These games can totally take place in a parallel timeline in the Arkhamverse where things played out very similarly to the main universe, but still slightly differently. There really is no reason that this can't be the case imo.

[@TuPapiRicoSuave]

Yup, We Can Just Blame Barry Allen Messing With The Speed Force as The Reason For The Parallel Universes

[@mr.jwashere7549]

Kinda like that Suicide Squad game no one remembers😁

[@VEZOK54]

I remember that Assault on Arkham was canon to Arkham Underworld since Deadshot appears and mentions how Batman stopped him from killing Waller after the ending of Assault on Arkham.

[@yesilikemyowncomment1959]

If Arkham Underworld wasn’t shut down. My life would be so much better and I refuse to believe anything different

[@djncrbjbghjfbjfvh6555]

I played these games, seeing them again feels weird cause I don’t know how old they were in hindsight.

[@brownbronco6465]

I like to think Lockdown was for people like me. Broke and didnt have a console

[@leafyishereisdumbnameakath4259]

The guy who voices arkham scarecrow sounds exactly like arkham mad hatter

[@spinozilla2421]

miss arkham underworld had so much poteinal, was even one of top player in my current lvl or status with the game rank system or whatever it did. i loved using croc as my main super villian with harley being a second pick. there was a Star war force arena which was also cool. besides that i say biggest lost was jurassic park buildier as i actualy did 100% that game having all the dino and creatures maxxed

[@M64bros]

Lesson learned and I'm pretty sure this goes for all of us, If you love the game so much back in the day and if you want to keep it forever, make sure it stays on that device and keep your device active for a long time. These games are so damn cool though, It's a real big frustrating shame they had to go! 😞

[@pintel1234]

too bad my tablet broke I miss playing the Arkham origins mobile game

[@M64bros]

[@expendableindigo9639]

Not even that can save you, on the newer Apple devices they will disable you from playing any apps which aren’t currently on the app store.

[@aaronhall9077]

It's a shame that so many delisted games like Arkham Underworld are now unplayable entirely. The only way would be via custom servers, I never understood why these companies can't just make many of these games offline functional, it makes no sense.

[@TheAtomsmith]

They gotta bring back Arkham Underworld smh

[@WarpingFist]

I was actually invested in the storyline lol. I need to know what Batman thinks of us.

[@BlueSpams]

I’m glad the Arkham series has been having this huge resurgence in popularity recently. Sure it’s partially due to the not so great recent game. But at least it’s helping us appreciate the series more

[@Nuclear_Idiot]

absolute banger of an intro

[@hahahahaehhehehehehe]

FINALLY! THESE GAMES GET SOME RECOGNITION! Origin's mobile is honestly PEAK!

[@expendableindigo9639]

Surprised you didn’t cover the NetherRealm Origins game. There’s also another glaring error that knocks Arkham City Lockdown out of the canon: the City Stories themselves that you can unlock in the main console game. They tell you how the villains last got arrested, including Joker on a boat, and Two-Face’s arrest, so the basic premise is undermined that way.

[@BBK113]

I remember playing the origins mobile game as a kid and I loved it so much, annoyed it got taken off the app stores tho

[@jagermanjensen1]

Huh, I feel like Arkham underworld is definitely in my memories somewhere
