　　Back in January of this year, WarnerMedia CEO Jason Kilar already sort of confirmed that Gotham Knights, as well as Hogwart’s Legacy, would release this year.

　　Officially announced back in Augustus of 2020 for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC, Gotham Knights features the Batman Family as players step into the roles of Batgirl, Nightwing, Red Hood, and Robin.

　　Nightwing is Dick Grayson, the first Robin, who was Batman’s protégé before becoming a hero in his own right. He’s a natural leader and the eldest and wisest member of the Batman Family. Nightwing’s mastery in acrobatics is complemented by his expertise use of his signature dual Escrima Sticks, making him proficient at taking out enemies.

　　Red Hood, formerly known as Jason Todd, is an intense and volatile anti-hero, which stems from his death and forced resurrection by one of Batman’s most dangerous foes.
