The Perfect Crime side quest in Batman: Arkham Knight presents players with one of the most chilling investigations in Gotham City. Tracking down Professor Pyg's victims requires careful observation, keen listening, and precise scanner analysis across the city's three main islands. Completing this case file not only reveals the dark narrative behind these murders but also leads Batman directly to a final showdown at the Pretty Doll Parlor.
Investigating the Early Victims on Bleake Island
Your investigation begins on Bleake Island, where classical opera music echoes near crime scenes. The first victim, Anthony Lund, is found stringed up on a rooftop near the Merchant Bridge. Scanning his body using Deep Tissue Scanner mode allows Batman to uncover hidden anomalies and identify the remains.
The second Bleake Island victim, Franklin Akers, is located on a rooftop in the Chinatown district. Analyzing the skin, muscle, and bone structures reveals clues about the serial killer's horrifying surgical methods. Each discovery brings Alfred and Batman closer to identifying the culprit responsible for these bizarre displays.
Locating the Bodies Across Miagani Island
Moving south to Miagani Island reveals two more victims tied to high structures. Robert Kincaid is discovered hanging on a wall near the Grand Avenue Station. Batman must adjust the scanner depth levels to inspect internal organs and medical markers that confirm the victim's identity.
Further west on Miagani Island, Debra Jane prepares players for the final stages of the investigation. Her body is located near the Gotham Herald building, surrounded by the same haunting music. Scanning her reveals distinct surgical alterations, proving that all the victims share a unified, tragic connection.
Uncovering the Final Clues on Founders Island
Founders Island contains the last two victims necessary to pinpoint Professor Pyg's lair. Ella Montgomery is strung up near the Ryker Heights district overlooking the waterfront. Detailed forensic analysis highlights unique physical traits that allow Batman to finalize her profile.
The last victim, Alison Wears, is found pinned to a wall near the Port Adams docks. Completing her scan correlates all collected data and unlocks the location of Professor Pyg's hideout.

Inside, players must face Professor Pyg and his mind-controlled Dollotrons in a challenging combat encounter. Defeating Pyg concludes the quest, locking him away in the GCPD lockup and restoring peace to Gotham's streets.
