Warner has revealed Gotham Knights’ first 16 minutes of gameplay

Warner Bros. Games has revealed the first 16 minutes of Gotham Knights gameplay.

The Batgirl gameplay video below, which was published by IGN, shows how Gotham Knights introduces players to basic traversal and combat mechanics directly following its prologue.

Playable either solo or in two-player co-op, the game sees players controlling one of four characters (Nightwing, Robin, Red Hood or Batgirl) in an open-world Gotham City following the death of Bruce Wayne.

Gotham Knights is being developed by WB Games Montreal and led by creative director Patrick Redding, who previously directed Splinter Cell titles Conviction and Blacklist.

It was initially planned for release last year before being delayed to provide “more time to deliver the best possible experience for players”.

The Gotham Knights release date is October 25, 2022, for PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.

In May, Warner said it no longer planned to release previously announced PS4 and Xbox One versions of Gotham Knights in order “to provide players with the best possible gameplay experience”.

It also released a 14-minute Gotham Knights video narrated by game director Geoff Ellenor, showing how each of the characters differ and providing some insight into the game’s narrative.
