Batman reaches out, yearningly, for a can of Dr Pepper in Arkham Knight.

Look, I’m not going to lie to you, this is very stupid. So stupid that it might be very important? No. But ithasproduced some truly spectacular screenshots, and I’ll be good and goddamned if I don’t gin up some excuse to show them to you.

I’m talking, of course, aboutThe Dr Pepper, a mod for Batman: Arkham Knight that replaces the Dark Knight’s Freeze Blast gadget with a, uh, can of Dr Pepper. Yes.

Batman, nose bleeding, wields a can of Dr Pepper in Arkham Knight.

“THAT is exactly how our wonderful Dark Knight stays hydrated,” rants MrBinks “he brings thirst to a stop in the name of vengeance with this beautiful drink… He sees a thirsty thug and a can of ice cold refreshing Dr Pepper is flying at their face at a solid 112 MPH (FASTER THAN ANY BASEBALL PLAYER EVER) directly towards their mouth.” I believe this person may need help. I hope, selfishly, they never get it.

Batman lurks in the rafters wielding a can of Dr Pepper.

A bit like theFallout 4 modthat did nothing but kill you before the end of the intro to preserve “realism,” The Dr Pepper belongs to that category of user creations whose impact far outweighs the scale of their ambition. I admit, it cracked me up, and seeing Bats pose with cans of the soft drink feels like stumbling across relics of some ’90s ad campaign that never made it to air.

If, in the year of our Lord 2024, you’re interested in modding a can of Dr Pepper into Batman: Arkham Knight, then first of all good for you. You can do it using theTFC Installer. Just point that tool at your Arkham Knight directory and then point it at the mod folder. Then stay hydrated.
