Can I play Arkham Knight without playing Origins?

If you play Knight first, you will not follow the story properly and it may not make much sense. You can skip Origins and do just fine, but Origins has some pretty good boss fights. Originally posted by mhenry_101381: Story wise, it's Arkham Origins, Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, Arkham Knight.

Should you skip Batman Arkham origins?

Origins isn't technically part of the trilogy (wasn't made by rocksteady), and as a prequel, it isn't necessary to play at all. If you've played city and asylum, you can play knight first and origins second. The two are pretty unrelated, so it doesn't matter which you play first.
