Gotham Knights is an upcoming action role-playing video game based on the DC Comics character Batman and his supporting cast. The game is being developed by WB Games Montréal and will be published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. It is set to be released in 2022 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Xbox Series S.[1][2] It was first revealed at DC FanDome in August 2020.[3]
The game's story takes place in a period of decline for Gotham City, after Batman's supposed death. Players take control of the Dark Knight's former partners – Nightwing, Batgirl, Robin, and Red Hood – who have gone their separate ways, but must work together once more to restore justice to Gotham and prevent it from descending into chaos. At some point during the game, the heroes will come into conflict with the Court of Owls, a secret criminal society that is as old as Gotham itself, and their legion of brainwashed assassins called Talons.
Gotham Knights is an action role-playing game set in an open world Gotham City.[4] The game features four playable characters: Nightwing, Batgirl, Robin, and Red Hood; each character has their own unique playstyle and abilities,[5] such as Robin being able to teleport via the Justice League's satellite.[4] While it can be played solo, the game also features a two-player cooperative multiplayer mode, wherein the second player can drop in and out at any time without affecting the other one.[6] Players can level up their characters, but enemies will be automatically leveled up as well.[4] They can also use the Batcycle to explore the city.
The game is set in Gotham City, after the death of Batman (voiced by Michael Antonakos)[7] and Police Commissioner James Gordon, which has resulted in a rise of crime and lawlessness. Players assume the role of Batman's former proteges – Dick Grayson / Nightwing (Christopher Sean),[7] Barbara Gordon / Batgirl (America Young),[7] Tim Drake / Robin (Sloane Morgan Siegel),[7] and Jason Todd / Red Hood (Stephen Oyoung)[7] – as they attempt to continue his legacy by protecting Gotham upon receiving a pre-recorded message from Batman.[3][5] During the game the heroes encounter several supervillains, including the Court of Owls and Mr. Freeze.[8] Supporting characters include Bruce's former butler Alfred Pennyworth (Gildart Jackson)[7] and Police Captain Renee Montoya, one of the few honest cops left in the city.[8]
Despite WB Games Montréal's previous work developing Batman: Arkham Origins and the fact that Gotham Knights features many of the same characters from the Batman: Arkham series, the new game is an original story separate from those games.[9][10]
