The game is a side-scrolling beat-em-up much like Final Fight. It features incredible graphics, advanced motion characters, multi-engine backgrounds and an advanced combo system.
The gameplay is similar to Final Fight, Captain Commando, Cadillacs And Dinosaurs, and Batman.
A few of the weapons that can be used throughout the game are the Bat-a-rang, Batrope, Gas Gun, and the Metal Cutter. When a platform is higher than your character can jump, fire the Batrope upwards.
