Batman: Arkham Knight “Big Head Mode” is Our New Favourite Thing (Photo Gallery)

As if the weight on Batman’s shoulders wasn’t heavy enough, Rocksteady studios has patched a new cheat code into Batman: Arkham Knight that gives the Dark Knight (and everyone else in Gotham) massively over-sized heads and hands.

Obviously, we couldn’t help jumping back into the game, punching in the cheat code, and capturing a handful of screenshots of what is easily the darkest Batman game completely transformed into the cutest thing we’ve ever seen.

Unfortunately, the head on the bat signal stays normal sized.

“We can fix this is we just put our heads together…”

“Bruce, I’ve got new informa- good lord what happened to your head?!”

So chibi.

They don’t call him Batman for nothing!

“I immediately regret this decision.”

“And what did we learn?”

“Alfred…I, I don’t fit…”

Batman’s enemies are growing.

But so are his allies.

Red XL Hood.

As if his smile couldn’t get any bigger

The Flying Grayson

All in a night’s work.

To activate Big Head Mode yourself, hold down both right and left triggers (R2 & L2 for PS4 users) while simultaneously rotating the left analog stick clockwise and the right analog stick counter clockwise. To revert your game to normal, simply input the cheat code a second time or exit out and back into the game.

Big Head Mode isn’t the only update Bat-fans will be receiving this month: the Tumbler Batmobile from the 2008 film The Dark Knight can now be downloaded along with two race tracks inspired by the film, and next Tuesday players can take control of Nightwing to apprehend the Penguin in an all new Arkham Episode set after the events of the main game.
