WB Games and DC have released a new gameplay launch trailer for their upcoming co-op Batman title, Gotham Knights. The game is set to release on October 21st and the latest trailer showcases high-octane gameplay to get fans pumped for all the action coming to our consoles and PCs soon.
I think Gotham Knights has a lot to live up to, with the huge success of the Batman: Arkham Knight series and the game being an online coop title, many things could go wrong at launch. I am glad to see something new coming from WB Games, but I have my reservations about the game and if it can still deliver the same quality story we received from previous Batman titles.
