Introducing the Dual Play Mechanic
The latest Batman Arkham Knight trailer reveals for the first time the new “Dual Play” mechanic. This innovative feature allows players to switch seamlessly between The Dark Knight and his allies, including Robin, Nightwing, and Catwoman, during free-flow combat. This mechanic not only adds a new layer of strategy to the game but also enhances the overall gameplay experience by allowing players to utilize the unique abilities and fighting styles of Batman’s allies.
“With his back against the wall, Batman turns to his closest allies to help him save Gotham City from the clutches of Scarecrow and the Arkham Knight’s army. A familiar face also returns to give The Dark Knight a message he cannot ignore…”
Storyline and Setting
The game’s main storyline is set one year after the events of 2011’s Batman: Arkham City.
