The studio has not been idle, offering a large-scale experience, and showing us a great mastery of the DC universe as well as an immense respect for its legends. You will find our detailed test, all the information on the game and on its purchase in our article.
Gotham Knights bills itself as an action-adventure game with open-world and co-op elements. The game puts you in the shoes of one of the members of the Bat-Family, the heirs of the dark knight, who must take up the torch of good after the tragic death of their mentor. The game offers action, exploration and puzzles in a scenario with impeccable cinematography and soundtrack. Roam the streets of Gotham in a Batmoto, thwart opportunistic or premeditated crimes and solve the mystery surrounding the death of Bruce Wayne. The game’s campaign mode is fully playable in two-player co-op.
To answer this question very quickly, yes Gotham Knights will integrate a cooperation mode on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. The game immerses you in the shoes of the heirs of the dark knight, so out of the question not to work as a team! Originally intended for 4 players, the game has been redesigned to offer a complete two-player adventure, taking you and your friend through the story and world of Gotham Knights from start to finish.
So far, no mention has been made of Gotham Knights coming to Xbox Game Pass. Phil Spencer’s offer is not particularly known for its proximity to Warner Games games, which are traditionally close to the Playstation universe. In addition, no mention was made of an upcoming addition of Gotham Knights in the Xbox Game Pass.
Initially announced two years ago, Gotham Knights saw its release penalized both by the health crisis and its intention to cover two generations of consoles at the same time. Indeed, Gotham Knights is scheduled to be released on both Playstation 5, PC and Xbox Series X|S, and both on Playstation 4 and Xbox One. A promise that can lead to development difficulties for the game to comply with the technical specificities of old consoles. Warner has set the game’s official release date as 21st of October next.
