Yesterday at DC Fandome, Gotham Knights was officially revealed after a lot of rumors, leaks and intentional teases from Warner Bros. The game is set to release sometime in 2021 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and PC.
The game is the continuation of the previously released Batman Arkham Knight. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to play as dark knight aka Batman but Gotham Knights will allow players to choose from four different Bat-family members, and two players can even play collectively online and can explore Gotham. There’s no indication whether there will be local co-op, nor more than two players able to play at the same time together.
Gotham Knight will feature four characters— Robin, Batgirl, Nightwing, and Red Hood. Each of them has their own fighting style, moves, and gear that players can use as an advantage throughout the game. Hereabouts the official description of all four characters:
