Batman: Arkham Knight Premium Edition has dropped to an unbelievable low of just $0.01 on Newegg. The deal quickly caught the attention of fans, who are now eager to find out whether it is a pricing error or a legitimate offer.
Batman: Arkham Knight Sees Unbelievable $0.01 Price Drop
Unusual $0.01 Pricing for Premium Edition Grabs Community Attention
Batman: Arkham Knight Premium Edition is currently on sale for just $0.01 from $39.99 on online retail site Newegg. Fans are weighing in on the bizarre and historic price drop, debating whether it is simply a pricing error or a legitimate sale.
The sale gained attention after user @Wario64 shared it on X (formerly Twitter), where the post has amassed nearly 1 million views. On the store page, only the Steam version of the game is discounted, and it is available as an online game code. What’s even more surprising is that the Premium Edition is priced lower than both the Season Pass and the Standard Edition, which are each listed at $19.99.
Batman: Arkham fans flooded the comments section of the videogame influencer’s post, with some jokingly replying with "Hold!" meme GIFs from Braveheart, suggesting that they still wanted the price to drop even further.
As of writing, Batman: Arkham Knight Premium Edition is now sold out, with no word on whether Newegg plans to restock it. Fans who were a few hours late to the sale expressed disappointment, with many posting reactions in the same comments section.
Discount Legitimacy Remains Uncertain
The legitimacy of Batman: Arkham Knight Premium Edition’s dramatic price drop remains under debate, as reports from users continue to conflict. Some buyers claim their purchases were later cancelled or their orders revoked shortly after checkout, raising doubts about the deal’s stability.
However, others report successfully receiving their Steam keys after purchasing the heavily discounted 99% offer, suggesting that at least part of the promotion was valid. In one notable instance, a user even shared an extra key in the comment section of @Wario64, highlighting how some buyers did receive legitimate copies amid the confusion.
Batman: Arkham Titles on Sale
Fans who missed out on this record-low sale can still wait for upcoming seasonal discounts across digital storefronts such as Steam, the PlayStation Store, and the Xbox Store. Batman: Arkham Knight, along with other titles in the series such as Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City, are often bundled together and frequently included in these sales, with discounts of up to 90% off. While these deals may not match the extreme price drop seen on Newegg, they still offer strong value for some of the most influential video games ever made.
Batman: Arkham Knight Premium Edition’s Premium Edition is the game at its most definitive, as it includes all of the DLC packs, ranging from single-player story expansions such as Batgirl’s "A Matter of Family" to bite-sized missions featuring playable characters like the Red Hood, Harley Quinn, and Catwoman. The 99% discount makes this one of the best-value deals in Arkham history.
It has been almost 11 years since Rocksteady released the third mainline entry in the Batman: Arkham Knight series. The game was originally intended as the conclusion to Batman’s crime-fighting days in Gotham, putting him up against a rogue’s gallery determined to take him down, including the mysterious Arkham Knight, whose identity fans are already aware of.
While the Newegg price drop is completely unrelated to any new entry in the series, fans continue to hope that Rocksteady will eventually acknowledge the game’s outdated performance on consoles, which remains locked at 30FPS. Many are still wishing for a potential remaster or a 60FPS update in the future.
