Struggling with the Mental Blocked Batmobile race in Batman: Arkham Knight? Get expert tips and strategies to beat the clock and earn those stars!

Alright, so you've finished the 'Mental Blocked' Riddler Race at least once, which means you've already conquered the course. Now, it's time to go back and nail those tricky times for the 3-star ranking. This is the final, and arguably toughest, lap of the race, so you'll need to be sharp.

Stats / Weaknesses:

  • Challenge: Mental Blocked (Batmobile Race)
  • Requirement: Complete in 0:42 for 3 Stars.
  • Other Times: 0:48 for 2 Stars, 1:00 for 1 Star.
Walkthrough
  1. 1
    The Tunnel with No Floor: Early in the race, you'll hit a tunnel where the floor just vanishes. Don't panic! You need to immediately use the walls to drive upwards until you find solid ground again.
  2. 2
    Riddler Access Code: This is crucial. You'll constantly need to switch between activating the red and green platforms, panels, and walls using the Riddler Access Code. Pay close attention to which color you need to trigger to create a path forward.
  3. 3
    Cornering and Speed: On the long, straight sections, make sure you're holding down the Afterburner to gain maximum speed. When you hit corners, initiate a drift. This helps you take the turn more effectively and, surprisingly, it actually slows down the timer slightly, shaving off precious seconds by the end.
Tips
  • Mastering the drift is key. It's not just about turning; it's about shaving off time. Practice it until it feels natural.
  • Keep an eye on the timer, but don't let it stress you out. Focus on hitting your lines and using your boosts effectively.
  • The Riddler Access Code switching needs to be second nature. If you hesitate, you'll lose valuable seconds or hit a dead end.
  • The wall-driving section in the tunnel is where many players struggle. Get a good angle on the wall and commit to driving up it.
