Explosive Gel is a gadget (and, on occasion, weapon) used in Batman: Arkham Asylum and Batman: Arkham City. This gadget is used to break structures and can take down armed and unarmed thugs when used in collaboration with a structurally unsound wall. If a single spray of Explosive Gel is set off on a normal, structurally sound wall, the thug will only be knocked down and be made vulnerable to crouching take downs.

Gameplay
Batman: Arkham Asylum
Explosive Gel can be used to stun or take down thugs, confuse Bane-type bosses, and destroy weak walls. It was also utilized to knock down the Titan-infected Joker for good during the latter's takeover of Arkham Asylum. On weaker substances, such as paper, it does not need to be detonated; it burns the object instead, such as Dr Young's Titan forumla.
Explosive Gel upgrades include:
- Auto Proximity Detonation - Explodes when an enemy gets near.
- Multiple Frequency Detonator - Zoom in on a specific Gel patch to detonate only that specific patch.
Batman: Arkham City
Batman uses Explosive Gel to defeat Solomon Grundy. Although it is not as used as often as the gel is in Arkham Asylum, it is still used as a combat technique and can still be used to break open walls.
Trivia
- Batman tends to only spray the Gel in a crude bat shape, whereas Robin sprays it in a trade mark "R" symbol.
- On Arkham Island, Batman gets the explosive gel from the trunk of the Batmobile.
- In the final battle of Batman: Arkham Asylum, Batman finishes the the Titan-infected Joker by spraying his right Knuckles with Explosive Gel, detonating it as he connects with Titan Joker's Jaw.
