The development of Gotham Knights has been shrouded in secrecy, with only a few teasers and leaks hinting at its existence prior to this official announcement.
The game is expected to be set in an open-world Gotham City, allowing players to explore various iconic locations from the Batman universe. The narrative is rumored to revolve around the aftermath of Batman’s apparent death, with the Bat-family stepping up to protect Gotham in his absence. This premise opens up numerous possibilities for storytelling and character development, as each member of the Bat-family grapples with the loss of their mentor and the responsibility of safeguarding the city.
