WHAT WE DID

For the Batman: Arkham Knight video game release, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment partnered with Storyland Studios to create a life-size, film-quality replica of the Batmobile.

HOW WE DID IT

Our team of artisans transformed the digital Batmobile from Batman: Arkham Knight from pixels into a real-world experience. We faithfully recreated this complex, armored automobile as a life-size, film-quality replica that not only held up to the scrutiny of fans and gamers, but became one of the most popular displays for over 52,000+ attendees at the 2015 E3 convention.

CONCLUSION

This recreation of the Batmobile was so well received that Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment displayed it in multiple locations to promote the game’s release. Thankfully, we had designed it with travel in mind, so they were able to ship it in sections, then reassemble it on site! Batman: Arkham Knight would go on to become the fastest-selling game of 2015, and critics have declared it the “best game of this console generation.”
