Controls & Basic Mechanics — Batman: Arkham Asylum Guide

Mastering Batman's controls is paramount. Combat is fluid and relies on timing and counters. Exploration involves grappling, gliding, and using Detective Mode. Familiarize yourself with these core actions:

• Movement: WASD (PC), Left Stick (Console)
• Attack: Left Click (PC), X/Square (Console)
• Counter: Right Click (PC), Y/Triangle (Console) - Crucial for survival!
• Stun: Middle Mouse/F (PC), B/Circle (Console) - Opens enemies to attack.
• Grapple: Space (PC), A/X (Console) - Essential for vertical traversal.
• Detective Mode: Ctrl (PC), LB/L1 (Console) - Your most powerful tool for analysis.

Practice these in the early encounters to build muscle memory.
