WB Games Montreal invested years taunting fans about its brand-new play. The developer lastly launched it as Gotham Knights during last weekend’s DC FanDome event. Yet, despite the lengthy story and gameplay trailers, an air of puzzle still clouds the deed. Fresh details have surfaced, though, providing much needed clarity about what its own experience entails.

Creative Director Patrick Redding and Senior Producer Fleur Marty shared various more parts of information in an interview with IGN. For one, Redding reaffirmed that Gotham Knights doesn’t take place in the Arkhamverse. In fact, developing something separate from the Arkham series was the studio’s plan all along. This doesn’t mean story is taking a backseat, though.

It seems countless are concerned Gotham Knights may accept the form of a Games as a Service. Marty addressed these frets, clarifying the title wasn’t designed in such a way. He told IGN, “there is an ability tree, which vary for each of the specific characteristics, and then there’s gear that you craft-and so options that you’re going to be making-but that does not mean that this is a game-as-service.”

Even though co-op is an option, Gotham Knights isn’t exclusively an online knowledge. Musicians will be able to go offline at leisure to play the part tournament in single-player if they so prefer. Marty elaborated, “we think that teaming up and living that dynamic duo myth can be also a really great experience for musicians, but we won’t force it on them.”

The alternatives on how to play don’t stop there. If a musician wants to assume the role of, say, Nightwing the entire era, they can. Mixing and matching acts as another potential. And, yes, two co-op marriages can call dibs on both playing as Red Hood.

Apart from what appears in the trailers, the devs remain tight-lipped about fib specifics. However, Redding did expose that Gotham Knights is an original fib, though it shares a namesake with a comic streak from the early 2000 s. The Creative Directed taunted, “it’s very much our presentation of several aspects of the Batman lore and the Gotham City history, and we various kinds of synthesize them in a way that holds together as a very much a unified storyline.”

Gotham Knights will launch in 2021 on the PS4, PS5, PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X platforms.
