Harvey Dent: The only way to get by in this place is to get ourselves some respect. Two-Face: FEAR! THAT'S HOW WE GET RESPECT. SHOW THEM ALL HOW WE DO THINGS. Harvey Dent: We should be fair though. This is a place of justice after all. Two-Face: SCREW JUSTICE! KILL HER, AND THEY'LL ALL FEAR US!

~ Two-Face before Catwoman's mock trial and his first words in the series (if the Catwoman DLC is not purchased).

You aren't Bruce Wayne. Jim Gordon and I, we didn't strike a deal with Bruce Wayne. And it's sure as hell not Bruce Wayne waiting on the rooftops each night. This is who you are. See, we get it, "Bruce". It's not the face you're given. It's the face you choose.

~ Two-Face to Batman after his identity is revealed.
Harvey Dent, better known as Two-Face, is a supporting antagonist in the Batman: Arkham franchise.
He was voiced by Troy Baker, who also voiced the Arkham Knight and the Joker in the same series, and also voiced Joel Miller in The Last of Us video games series, Pagan Min in Far Cry 4, Higgs in Death Stranding, Delsin Rowe in inFamous: Second Son, and James in the HBO The Last of Us TV series.
Harvey Dent grew up in a very violent and abusive household with an abusive father who often beat him and his mother. The elder Dent used a coin to decide if he should beat them or not which led to Harvey developing a dual personality (later called Two-Face) that was obsessed with duality. Despite his horrendous conditions as a child, Harvey went to college where he studied law and befriended Bruce Wayne before graduating and becoming a lawyer. Over the years, he became known as the "White Knight" of Gotham City due to his hard crackdown on organised crime and violence.
Sometime shortly before the events on Christmas Eve, Harvey Dent ran for D.A. in Gotham City and won the elections on the day on Christmas Eve.
Batman: Arkham Origins[]
Although Harvey Dent does not appear in the game physically, in the GCPD building, there is a newspaper which states that Harvey has been elected D.A. of Gotham City, however, it is unlikely he has yet been established as Gotham's "White Knight" at this stage. In his base, Enigma has been investigating Batman's true identity and has listed that Harvey (as well as Bruce Wayne) are possible suspects for being Batman.
Pre-Arkham Asylum[]
Although Harvey continues his war against crime, at some point over the next ten years, his dual personality becomes stronger and eventually fully manifests after Carmine Falcone throws acid in the DA's face. The resulting fallout allows Falcone enough time to buy his way out of justice which finally drives Dent over the edge into becoming another of Batman's archenemies who he thinks sold him out. Soon after this though, Dent is captured by Batman and taken to Arkham Asylum where he designs a cell filled with duality based imagery.
Batman: Arkham Asylum[]
“
All units, all units, the Second National Bank was just robbed by Harvey Dent AKA Two-Face. Two officers down, the suspect is fleeing in their patrol car.
„
~ The GCPD Dispatch.
Two-Face manages to escape Arkham Asylum sometime before or during the Joker's takeover and plots to raid the Gotham City Second National Bank whilst Batman and the GCPD are dealing with the mad clown. During the night, he attacks the bank but ends up being confronted by two officers who he shoots and then escapes in their cop car. After the Joker's riot is defeated though, Batman hears of Two-Face's attack and goes to stop him in the Batwing which results in his recapture.
Escape from Arkham Asylum[]
After taking down some thugs in Gotham City, Batman discovers that various criminals and villains have escaped from Arkham Asylum. Quincy Sharp then states that it's the last straw and Arkham City will be built in order to ensure the imprisonment of the criminals. In the streets of Gotham, Batman defeats some of Two-Face's henchmen and then finally confronts Two-Face. Before attempting murder upon the masked vigilante, he flipped his coin and then pulled out two machine guns to fight Batman. Batman throws a Batarang at him, disarming Dent of his weapons. Eventually, Batman finally comes face to face with Two-Face and fought in hand-to-hand combat but Batman manages to successfully defeat him and have him captured. On the newspaper it shows Batman holding Two-Face by his neck.
Pre-Arkham City[]
During the Joker's takeover of Arkham Asylum, the Asylum was destroyed so it is shutdown and abandoned six months later in favour of a new prison named Arkham City. As a result, all of the criminals in Arkham Asylum and Blackgate Prison are transferred there which includes Two-Face and his gang. Now at war with the Joker and Penguin, Two-Face raids the Solomon Wayne Courthouse which he and his gang claim as thier base and place the Calendar Man in the basement cells. Inside this courthouse, Two-Face and his gang begin holding kangaroo courts where the gang "judge" those who cross them and determine whether to execute them based on a flip of the coin.
Arkham City[]
If the Catwoman pack is downloaded, Two-Face captures Catwoman at gunpoint before she could steal from him in the courthouse. In the main story, Batman hears from an intercepted radio signal from a TYGER guard that Two-Face has Catwoman held captive in the Solomon Wayne Courthouse. Batman fought Two-Face's henchmen to get in the courthouse. He sees Two-Face starting a kangaroo trial with Catwoman suspended above a vat of acid. Before starting the trial, he flips his coin in the air, landing on its good side. Batman takes out the gunman at the top before fighting his henchmen on the floor. After he defeats them, Two-Face shot Batman through the panel and tries to kill Catwoman. He flips his coin again, this time landing on the bad side. Before he could kill her, Catwoman breaks free, scratches the scarred half of his face, and knocks his gun away from him. Catwoman says "No gun Harv?" and Two-Face reveals another gun and replies "Two guns bitch!", but Batman uses his grappling hook to suspend him atop the vat of acid. If Batman talks to him, Two-Face vows that he will be back.
After Batman escapes the subway after leaving Wonder City, if he goes inside the museum, he will see Two-Face's henchmen taunting Penguin, hinting that he will take over his base of operations. Due to being in hiding somewhere in the prison, Two-Face survives Protocol Ten and remains an active threat unlike his rivals. In Catwoman's DLC pack, after the main story ends, she heads to her apartment to retrieve the stuff she has stolen from Hugo Strange, only to trigger a bomb set by Two-Face. She survives and attacks the henchmen checking up on her if she was dead. One of the henchmen reveals that Two-Face is in the museum so she heads there and fights off his henchmen. Catwoman enters the room that Two-Face is in, feeling confident that his gang will take over Arkham and Gotham after taking over Penguin's base and hearing about Joker's death. If a henchmen sees an unconscious body or if Two-Face sees Catwoman, he will go ballistic, walk to different places and shoot a bazooka-type firearm all over the place. After Catwoman has taken out enough henchmen and takes down Two-Face, she threatens to scratch him again unless he gives her stuff back. Two-Face replies that he only kept half and gave the rest away to a select henchmen. Catwoman knocks him out and hunts down the henchmen to get the rest of her stuff back.
Two-Face is later arrested with all other surviving inmates in Arkham City when the GCPD storm the prison and shut it down. However, Hugo Strange's mass murder of prisoners during Protocol 10 violates their constitutional rights and the GCPD are forced to release all of the prisoners which includes Nigma.
Pre-Arkham Knight[]
Over the next nine months, like the rest of Gotham's underworld, Two-Face and his gang stay quiet which brings an unnatural quiet to Gotham City. At some point before Halloween 2015 however, Two-Face joins Scarecrow's Army as part of his plan to destroy Batman's legacy. The Penguin is distrusting of the Arkham Knight but he begrudgingly agrees to hand out weapons to Two-Face for his bank robbing operations while Scarecrow and the Knight lead their army against Batman. Despite this, Penguin tries to get the better of Two-Face, only for one of his jobs to be intercepted by the Arkham Knight and thus stopped as this could sabotage the alliance.
Arkham Knight[]
Nine months after Arkham City, the Penguin and Two-Face lead the criminal rampage in Gotham; both working together to slay multiple cops before going their separate ways. Whereas the other criminals strike hard at Gotham City, Two-Face instead just aims to rob every bank in the city. After Batman stops Two-Face's thugs from robbing a couple banks, Two-Face will come in the final bank and face Batman. After Batman defeats Two-Face and some of his thugs, Batman will take him to the GCPD to be locked up with the other villains that Batman has defeated. When his henchman tells Batman to hands off their boss, Two-Face tells his gang to save their breaths when they get their chance before Batman assumes "Not anytime soon."
Flip of a Coin[]
However, whilst his men are captured in Gotham, Two-face had also sent men to Blüdhaven to empty the banks there. As Nightwing is busy in Gotham helping Batman, Two-Face's men in Blüdhaven sre unopposed and are able to steal loads of money whilst Two-Face breaks out of jail. After the Knightfall Protocol, Tim Drake infiltrates the Hell's Gate Waste Disposal Facility which Two-Face uses to launder his money. After defeating Two-Face's men, Robin faces Two-Face himself, who overpowers the young hero by shooting him in the foot. As Robin lies on the ground, Two-Face prepares to finish him off but is distracted when Barbara overrides the loudspeakers in the room, giving Robin the opportunity to lunge at Two-Face and knock him out. He does not regain consciousness afterwards and is left for the Blüdhaven Police.
What happened to Two-Face after this is unclear but it's likely that he was sent to Arkham Asylum after it reopened.
Personality[]
“
You remember the mob, right? The guys who burned half our face off because they COULDN'T GET TO YOU?
„
~ Two-Face to Batman, venting his anger to the Dark Knight on what happened to him.
Thought to be the "White Knight" of Gotham, Harvey Dent was once selfless, moral and extremely dedicated to cleansing crime in his city. His dedication to justice and unwavering sense of right and wrong was almost unfound in politicians and officials by Gotham City standards, most of which were flooded with corruption. Because of this many people actually believed he was the Batman during the beginning of the vigilante's career. His fall from grace after being horrendously scarred by acid thanks to Carmine Falcone, resulting in the loss of half his face and fracturing his psyche, which proved to not only be a blow for Gordon and Batman, but for all of Gotham.
Dent became more twisted and psychotic every year after his accident, as well he even became less sympathetic and redeemable in the eyes of Batman, who used to be his close friend, however, he did show pity on him while taking him to GCPD in Arkham Knight, as Aaron Cash even states that he "felt bad about booking him" in the evidence lock-up. Dent's dependency on his two-sided coin leaves him with scarce loyalties, should it come up bad for someone he would kill them without so much as a second hesitation. However, he is capable of making decisions by himself but normally under pressure or in a forced situation. He is much more reliant on the prospects of fate and destiny rather than calculated decisions, perhaps a reason of him losing the Arkham City gang war, he would much prefer to follow the coin blindly even if the decision was a poor one instead of genuine strategy. However, his unpredictability is also considered a gift, as it leaves him hard to place in the eyes of his enemies.
Dent is also not without his inner battles, at times, the Harvey and Two-Face personas conflict each other, which is best shown in the courtroom when discussing the fate of Catwoman, Harvey attempted to give her a fair trial as they were in a "place of justice" whereas Two-Face argued to kill her as to gain fear in Arkham City. His own self-opinion after his accident varies between games. During the Interview Tapes with Strange, he is given the opportunity to either be cured or set free into Arkham City and he chooses to remain the same, either showing he is comfortable with himself or he was pressured to make a decision. However, in Arkham Knight, he admits to Batman while being taken to the GCPD that "[he] wished [he] was dead" revealing a self-loathing aspect of his personality.
Despite it being years since his transformation, Two-Face has mostly absolved his personality, as he still shows traits of the man he used to be. Dent showed incredible determination, as displayed when after his face was scarred by acid, he still fought Falcone in court. He also possesses some degree of compassion, and considered giving Catwoman a fair trial at the courthouse but quickly decided against this. Because of his former job of that as a District Attorney, he has a sense of justice which has become horribly warped and during her trial he uses multiple layman' terms, that of a judge would do. He even once contemplated cutting off her hands, perhaps as an ironic punishment.
His obsession with duality has become the insignia of his criminal empire, and to match his own scars, he makes his men wear outfits similar to his appearance. This is also shown by the way he carries two guns, halved Catwoman's stolen loot and manner of killing, and cutting one of his men in two with a saw. Despite this cruelty, all of his men have unwavering respect and loyalty, if not fear, for Dent.
Two-Face has a rivalry with his fellow crime lord, Penguin and, despite working together with Scarecrow, they still had a dislike for each other. When Oswald told him getting him involved was a big mistake, Dent told him to watch his mouth as they are on the same side of the bars now.
