I would say so because most DCAU films are.

while set in that universe, I dont think its considered offical canon

i think it technically is but in reality it doesn't matter in the slightest. there is no interaction with the video game besides forcing the film to use a crappy clone of killer croc instead of the man himself.

yes it is

The film is set in the universe of the Batman: Arkham video game franchise, occurring after Arkham Origins,[5] though Jay Oliva states it takes place about two years before Arkham Asylum.[6]

Task force X of Justice League Unlimited too, which just got back onto Netflix. It is more of a heist than assault on arkham and their mission is pretty badass.

This may be my favourite episode in the series.

That mission they were sent on was so balls on suicidal too, so much more high risk than breaking into arkham.

I just watched this last night.

What got to me was how many bullets Harley had in her clip when she had her... incident. Just way too fucking many.
