Even that isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it may not mesh with what some fans are expecting, so the hope is Gotham Knights can serve all intended audiences when it swoops down from the gargoyles and onto PC and current-gen platforms this fall.

The video above includes examples of characters unlocking incremental upgrades in a similar vein to Marvel's much-maligned loot brawler. The game also focuses a lot on gear pieces and custom character builds, perhaps like Crystal Dynamics' Avengers game-though that may not be a comparison WB Montreal is eager to make.įor now, fans have seemed split, with most just excited to get back to Gotham in a new big-budget game, but there remains a vocal minority of would-be players who are wondering if this game has been designed like those before it, a story-centric superhero saga, or something more like a live-service game that puts long-tail content above all other priorities. It's safe to assume we'll see Batgirl and Robin teaming up on rooftops and in dingy alleys soon too. We got to see some of this-and a lot more-in a recent gameplay demo that focused on the pair. Nightwing is more nimble and acrobatic, naturally, while Red Hood doesn't quite pull his punches as the rest of them may, for example. With a similar freeflow combat system to the Arkham games of yesteryear, Gotham Knights looks a lot like those beloved games but will seek to give each hero their own flourishes. The PlayStation Store listing did previously say there would be four-player online functionality, which has led some to expect there may be a four-player mode planned outside of the main story. In practice, this means players choose from one of four characters either alone or with one friend in two-player co-op-that's right, the story is without a four-player mode despite the character options.

In Gotham Knights, the Bat-Family will be going head to head with the city's seediest underbelly of them all. First introduced by Scott Snyder in his now-monumental debut work as a Batman scribe in 2011, the Court of Owls is a secret society comprised of Gotham's most elite that has existed for many years but is rarely acknowledged-with the vast majority of the city's denizens not even knowing of its existence. While it's safe to expect a train car's worth of enemies to make appearances throughout the story, it centers on the Court of Owls, a fairly new storyline in the Batman mythology. It gets more confusing when you consider that Batman is said to be dead or missing in both of them. Instead, the Arkham-verse lives on in 2023's Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League. What's important to note here is, although the game can look like the Arkham games, this is a new continuity according to WB Montreal. At the center of the storyline is, of course, the Bat-Family rising up in place of the deceased Bruce Wayne to carry on his legacy as guardians of Gotham. This is a comic book story, so what we know so far is likely to eventually be subverted by twists and turns we can't see coming, but even the hard facts are enough to excite most Bat-fans. Though the team didn't expound on why that is, it can be reasonably inferred to be a result of the aging tech of the old systems-not to mention by the time Gotham Knights launches, the newer models of consoles will be nearly two years old already.
