Chapter 9: The Die is Cast

Protect Oracle

The Batmobile was destroyed in the tunnels, but fortunately Lucius has made a spare. Call the new ride to have it dropped off nearby.

Destroy the Rattler Tank Drones

Test its abilities on the 24 drones that surround Batman and Oracle, including Twin Rattlers, Mambas, and Diamondbacks.

Take Oracle to the GCPD

Once the area is safe, put Oracle in the back of your vehicle and drive to GCPD, where she sets up at one of the station’s computers. In an attempt to connect to the Clock Tower, they discover Scarecrow’s men destroying the serverroom.

Stop Scarecrow’s Militia from Destroying Oracle’s Servers

Drive to the Clock Tower and grapple to a high vantage point, overlooking the north. Two snipers survey the area and must be taken care of first. Glide Kick each one before turning your focus to the predator zone in and out of the Clock Tower.

Eight soldiers, a medic, and a minigunner patrol the zone. Save the big guy for last while eliminating the others with Silent or Fear Multi-Takedowns. Target the medic first so he doesn’t bring a previous victim back into the fold. Once taken care of, climb to the top floor of the Clock Tower and interact with the control consoles to reconnect the servers.

Meet with Oracle at GCPD to analyze the Data for Leads About Where Scarecrow has Taken Gordon

Return to GCPD and talk to Oracle, who is still working in the far corner office. As she reports on what she has found, the militia assault the GCPD.

Stop the Assault on GCPD

Militia drones and soldiers surround GCPD. Batman must rid the area of the enemy before Scarecrow razes it to the ground. Exit the building as two APCs drop off 14 soldiers and three medics. Target the medics early in the fight and perform a Batmobile Assisted Takedown whenever available. After eliminating the first threat, Cash informs Batman the shutter doors will not open due to the power outage.

Investigate Power Generator to Restore Power to GCPD

Power must be restored with an external generator, but first Batman must find a way there. Take control of the Batmobile and fire the Power Winch at the fan, left of the GCPD entrance. Pull it down and grapple inside. Climb into the venting and follow it through the cover at the other end. Step into the lift ahead and grapple into another vent. Follow the dark path until you reach the rooftop, where Batman gets a better view of the militia assault. Run to the west and drop down to the generator, which rests on the lower roof. Unfortunately, it has been destroyed.

Access GCPD Parking Garage to Power Up Backup Generators

Backup generators are located in the underground parking garage below. Approach the north end of the roof and use the Remote Hacking Device to blind the Dragon Drone that guards the entrance. Quickly drop down and crouch under the shutter. The generator is just ahead, but another group of militia soldiers must be dealt with first—15 hostiles, including Stun Sticks, a shield, and a brute. Finish them off before firing the Remote Electrical Charge at the three generators.

Stop the Assault on GCPD

Vulnerability in the militia network allows Oracle to hack into the drones, which means she will be fighting alongside Batman. Hop into the Batmobile and drive outside to take on sixty drones. Diamondbacks, Rattlers, Twin Rattlers, Dragons, Mambas, and Pythons all join the vehicle battle. It can get pretty overwhelming in front of GCPD. A back alley on the west side takes you around back with fewer drones to deal with. However, you must eliminate them all.

Stay on the move to avoid being surrounded. An EMP Blast works well when it happens. Use Vulcan fire on the Dragon Drones and incoming missiles, while destroying the ground drones with the Heavy Cannon. The Vulcan Gun can also be used on the Rattler’s weak spot just below the cannon. This is a pretty nasty fight. Be sure to take advantage of all the Batmobile abilities, Missile Barrage, CPU Virus, and EMP, and destroy them all. Once the militia tanks have been taken care of, infantry are dropped on the GCPD roof in an attempt to bypass the security.

Stop Militia from Disabling the GCPD Security Systems

Grapple to the highest part of the GCPD roof on the right to face the enemies, including eight soldiers, a medic, and a brute. Before the soldiers notice Batman, perform a Fear Multi-Takedown on the nearby hostiles. The Remote Electrical Charge can be used to disable Stun Fist Brutes.

With the initial group out of the way, a second squad is dropped on the roof, which includes four soldiers, two medics, and two brutes. Target the medics early on and eliminate the group. Using the Oracle Assisted Takedowns on the brutes is ideal.

Investigate Gordon’s Appearance at Panessa Studios

After the fight, Oracle informs Batman that Gordon’s voice was used to access Panessa Studios. Glide over to that location and enter via the V.I.P elevator. The perpetrators are gone, but the vigilante is filled in on the happenings.

Surrender to Scarecrow to Save Robin and Gordon

A message from Crane informs Batman to show up at a storage depot in Kingston, alone. This is it, the endgame. Exit the building and drive to Miagani Island. Hop off the left side of the bridge and enter the storage facility. Inside, Scarecrow has a message for Batman. Approach the monitors to hear him out. Move over to the table and give up the utility belt and gadgets. Approach the truck on the right and step inside to surrender to the villain.

The truck begins to move through the city. After a short time, the vehicle is knocked over. As Batman emerges from the rear, he finds himself in Crime Alley, behind the Monarch Theatre. Climb onto the dumpster and hop over the fence and attempt to open the theater door. Pay your respects to the man and woman who lie on the ground. The vigilante’s past demons are getting the better of him. They climb over the fence and begin to attack. With no utility belt and gadgets, use counters and strikes to knock them out. Takedowns can be performed when available. When prompted, rapidly tap the Strike button to finish them off.

When you regain control, jump into the Batmobile and take out the soldiers that surround the room. Hop out and enter the door on the right. Follow the corridor around its twists and turns, taking down any enemies that stand in the way.

Activate the flashlight after the lights go out and make your way down the hallway. Destroy the chairs that block the path to the left and continue onward. When the room appears to trap you inside, wait a short while and another door appears. Obliterate the statues that show up and when light appears through a weakened wall, destroy the plaster. Follow the walkway to the other end and throw the switch labeled Exit. When the foe comes at Batman, counter and strike him until you can finish him off with an Environment Takedown. An ending cinematic follows.

With Scarecrow finally apprehended and the story complete, New Story + becomes available. Also, finish eight Most Wanted missions to unlock a new ending. Complete all of these activities to get the full ending.
