Re: Gotham Knights

Looks amazing, wonder if its next gen only being that it is 2021 and kind of how it looks. Nice to see duel play is back was a great feature in knight but under used.

Gotham Knights

Health bars and enemy levels? Please for the love of God don’t be Batman Odyssey, I already hate what they did to AC don’t do it to Batman, I thought they would get all of this off in Suicide Squad, if they don’t have free flow combat in this WB is dead to me. Seems like a different universe too with Barbara walking and Freeze spazzing again, interesting to see what they do with it but kinda curious where the Knightfall ending would’ve went next.

Gameplay. Don't know how to properly upload vids.


Confirmed a Cross-Gen game. Looks to be a continuation from Arkham Knight. So most likely Batman won't be present

Where does it say cross gen? I didn't see any thing about that?

I think that it is playing off of the end scenario from Arkham Knight where Batman is "dead" .

I see a lot of mixed feelings online about this. The Gotham Knights name floated around. But many figured that it would still be a Batman game just with a stronger Bat-family approach. A lot are disappointed that it isn't a Batman game and that it is a " Sidekick" game.

For me, I'm a little disappointed that it isn't a Batman game. I'm waiting until the Suicide Squad announcement to see if Batman is in that game. But, I'm still interested in the game. I hope it isn't a GaaS and hopefully has a lengthy single player experience.

If Batman isn't in this game and not in Suicide Squad. Hopefully they at least release a remastered Arkham Bundle with all the games remastered for next gen

Re: Gotham Knights

It's still going to play like the Arkham games. You can tell in the gameplay video. You can switch between characters. You can customize how each character looks.

I can't wait.

"Clarification from WB games PR is that Gotham Knights is not set in the Arkham games universe. Separate continuity."

You're right. I get that they want to do their own and be in their own universe. But killing off Batman makes it seems pike a continuance from Arkham Knight.

I saw what looked like duel play from knight and that was a great feature but under used in knight. My worry is from what was shown it looks like the free flow combat might be gone and free flow combat was a big thing that made the arkham games the arkham games.

Re: Gotham Knights

Was excited for this until I saw gameplay. Now this looks terrible. I'm not a fan of the health bars and levels at all.

Re: Gotham Knights

I agree that I don't care for the health bars and levels. I rather have a consistent experience.

I am excited for both games. But I don't really like that both games seemingly took similar paths with the co-op focused experience. I am a single player offline-only type of gamer. I liked the co-op missions in the Arkham games. But as for primary campaign being entirely co-op does raise concerns for me. Being that I will play it solo, trusting Bots entirely is what brings up concerns. Hopefully with next gen versions, the AI is vastly improved. If I have to rely on AI partners, I do hope they aren't just predictable and a liability at times.

Though I wanted another Batman game. I would be ok with an Complete remastered Arkham Bundle.

Haha. Your reaction is literally the first thing I thought of when I saw those numbers start popping up on the screen. Hopefully they give us the option to keep them off the HUD (I can't remember if Assassin's Creed lets or not) because everything else looked great to me.

I'm not sure why people are worried about the combat. It looks like the core is the same they just tweaked it for variations on the other characters.

I'm all for having Batman set out a game or too especially since the other characters weren't used for much of anything apart from challenges. I loved fighting as Robin/Red Robin with the staff. If I can't have a TMNT game just give me this.

Ya'll know how comics are regarding the dead.

Either way - a pretty good weekend for Bat-family fans.
