Part 3: Miagani Island Robbery

Learn how to complete the Smash and Grab AR challenge in Batman: Arkham Knight. Get tips on timing, enemy spawns, and Rival Points for this Chinatown bank heist.

Alright, let's talk about the "Smash and Grab" A.R. challenge map. This one throws you right into a bank heist in Chinatown. You'll be playing as Batman, and the goal is to stop Two-Face's Gang before they can finish their job. It's a predator challenge, so stealth is key, but there's a twist: you're up against the clock! This challenge unlocks after you finish the first part of the "Two-Faced Bandit" side mission. You can launch it right from story mode. ### Stars (Same Regardless of Character) Getting stars here is all about speed. You've got three tiers: * 3 Stars: Stop the bank heist in less than 1:15. * 2 Stars: Stop the bank heist in less than 2:00. * 1 Star: Stop the bank heist in less than 3:00. Be warned: if you fail to stop the heist within the 1-star time limit, the challenge ends instantly. So, speed is definitely your friend here. ### Rival Points To snag all 20 Rival Points (RP), you'll need to finish the challenge in under 15 seconds. For every 3 seconds you're under the 3-star time (1:15), you'll earn 1 RP. It's a tough goal, and this is one of those AR challenges where getting all the points without glitches can be tricky. ### What to Expect * Enemies: You're facing default enemies, specifically Two-Face's Gang. * Spawns: More enemies will keep spawning in, but don't worry too much about them all. The challenge actually ends once you take out 10 enemies. * Alarm: The alarm is always on, which is interesting because it means loud takedowns are almost as quiet as silent ones. This can give you a bit more flexibility. * Speed Focus: Unlike most predator challenges, this one really rewards you for being fast. It's one of the few in the series that does this, and it's the only one where every character gets the same medal requirements. Just like the side mission, there's that constant pressure from Two-Face's gang robbing the bank.
