One of the hardest combat achievements from the previous installments makes a return as “Perfect Freeflow 2.0” in Batman: Arkham City, and it is now even harder to unlock. With a lot of new moves and special attacks, you must master the game’s Freeflow Combat once again to clean up Gotham City.
How to unlock Perfect Freeflow 2.0 in Batman: Arkham City
You need to perform a total of 13 different moves without getting hit to unlock Perfect Freeflow 2.0. It can be done in any game mode (Story, New Game Plus, or Challenge Mode). If your combo is interrupted or you get hit, you need to start all over again.
Perfect Freeflow 2.0 moves list
Here are all the moves that you need to perform to unlock the Perfect Freeflow achievement. Make sure that you have unlocked all of these moves before attempting this challenge. It is not mandatory to follow a specific order and you can alter the order in any way that is convenient for you.

You, however, have the freedom to change the order or come up with your own sequence.
- Start by striking the first enemy with a basic attack. (1)
- Counter the attack from the next enemy. (2)

The best location for Freeflow combat
The best location with a lot of enemies and enough room is the Joker’s Carnival map if you have the relevant DLC. Otherwise, the challenge map: Survival of the Fittest Level 3 is just as good. Survival of Fittest Levels 1 and 2 do not have enough enemies but can be a good place to practice your moves before attempting to unlock the achievement in Level 3.
