Gotham Knights

I'm amazed WB approved a game without Batman (even if he does pop up by the end). They don't even have BATMAN in the title... bold.

Its quite Bold Considering the quality people expect after arkham knight.
The arkham series has Set the Bar quite high for dc related games.
 
Looks very comic-booky. I kinda like it. Jason looks the best. I’m guessing we’ll be able to customize each of the characters.
 
Co-op is cool. And Batman is absolutely going to unlock once you finish the game. I do wonder if they plan on more characters as DLC.
 
Looks pretty meh, to me.
Graphics are like early PS4 era, voice acting is bad, gameplay isn't really interesting...
Is this really coming for next-gen consoles?
 
Customizable appearances, co-op and an emphasis on other Gotham heroes sounds like a good time to me. As much as I enjoy playing as them in Arkham Knight, and it's probably my favourite part of the game, it'd be nice to have them with an actual robust set of gadgets.
 
If they dropped free-flow combat I will cause chaos in the streets.
 
So there's no official release date yet except sometime in 2021
 
If I had to guess based on the video, the combat looks closer to PS4 Spider-Man than the Arkham games.
 
Here's the game developer interview commentary


I'm not impressed... Is this next gen? I know it's pre Alpha but I thought it didn't look great.

Also just a minor thing, but I don't like seeing hit points on enemies. (Avengers game does the same thing) It "ruins" the immersion for me
 
Extremely disappointed by this. The art style, the lack of Batman, it’s nothing like I expected. Hard pass. I get wanting to do something different from the Arkham games, but the look and feel of those games was just perfect to me. This, however, is... not.

I guess I’ll just continue hoping for an Arkham Origins sequel for another 100 years or so.
 
Ok so we got.

No Batman
Leveling up with gear and numbers
Open world Gotham
Free switching from hero to hero
Court of Owls


Im half excited half disappointed.
 
Kinda disappointed after the announcement. Having Batman dead, in my opinion, reminds me of the worst videogame in terms of story, which is Arkham Knight. I still have hope as it seems that it is not connected to it (we have Barbara as Batgirl and not Oracle) and we have also to consider that WB Montreal were responsible for Arkham Origins, the best game story-wise in my opinion. They seem to be developing their own style, including a more comic-booky design. I just hope that Batman eventually shows up and you get to play as him at least half of the game with him.
My guess is that his supposed death is part of the Court of Owls' plot. Before I buy this game I would need to see the full plot, if it leaks please be kind and PM me.:cwink:

I could’ve sworn I heard one of the WB Montreal people during the Q&A the woman I thought she said January. Maybe I misheard.

Batman being "dead" and gone is like Captain America being "dead" and gone in the Avengers game. They'll both be back by the of the story!

You'll see. So relax and let the story play out!
 
I personally find it kinda funny when people are still going on about the lack of Batman. When all the leaks and rumors indicated this was a Batfamily game and not a Batman game. Just an observation I’m making haha.
 

Nightwing - Dick Grayson
Robin - Tim Drake
Batgirl- Barbara Gordon
Red Hood - Jason Todd

Both platforms of Xbox One / PS4 and Next Generation

Open world and online co-op
 
The leaks and rumors mentioned Batman as playable and I believe them as they were right about everything else. Some are just panicking way too soon

I had never seen that in the leaks I might’ve missed it. But I’d assume at some point in this game that will definitely happen. Be it a flashback or towards the end of the game. But it was very clear early on that this game was a Batfamily game mostly if I recall correctly.

Much like Captain America will be playable as Marvel's Avengers. Of course Batman is going to be playable (either as flashback or in the mainstream story.)

Every leak etc put batman Front and Center.
Even they did with the batman Logo at the anniversary and the #CaptureTheKnight.
There was nothing indicating a game were batman does not play a Main role.

Its more than likely that it will Feature a playable batman, but i dont know...playing batman only after 5-6 hour halfway through the Story, since i assume such a big reveal when the Story plays with the idea He is dead will take a while to get to that plot Twist...doesnt Sound too cool at the Moment.
 
Disappointed with the art style as a comic book look breaks the immersion imo and I'd have been nice to see a realistic looking Batman game on next-gen consoles.
