In Batman: Arkham Asylum, Robin does not physically appear as a character within the game's main narrative. Batman operates alone throughout the events inside Arkham Island.

The Identity of Robin in the Arkhamverse

While Robin is not present in Batman: Arkham Asylum, the Robin of the Arkhamverse during this period is Timothy Drake.

  • Timothy Drake is known as the third Robin.
  • He serves as a devoted partner and sidekick to Batman, particularly during the absence of Dick Grayson, the original Robin.
  • Although he isn't in Arkham Asylum, Timothy Drake is a playable character in the subsequent game, Batman: Arkham City, showcasing his active role in the wider Arkham series.

Robin's Role in the Broader Arkham Series

In the larger context of the Arkham game series, Robin (Timothy Drake) plays a crucial supporting role, often assisting Batman from afar or joining him directly in later installments. His absence in Arkham Asylum emphasizes Batman's isolated struggle against the villains who have taken over the facility, making the experience intensely personal and challenging for the Dark Knight.
