I'm keeping the thread title as is lol. Not sure how my wires crossed to produce that.

Announcing which platforms your game will come to is so 2019.

Edit: It's the usual suspects.

"Gotham Knights is playable either solo or as a two-player, online cooperative experience and will be available in 2021 for PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, PlayStation®4 Pro, the Xbox One family of devices including Xbox Series X and Xbox One X and PC."

Playstation buttons in the gameplay demo, probably PS marketing deal again.

Really disappointed that we're getting shoehorned RPG mechanics in yet more games.

I've barely played any of the batman games, but this sure felt like the DC take on Square Enix's Avengers game. Not what I was expecting.


Also the game demo did the annoying thing where the other player disappears during cutscenes.

Yeah it looks good to me, a much better first impression than Avengers. But I'm very wary, it seems they're copying a lot of new AC style mechanics which I hate. Co-op could make up for it though and a dense city rather than huge empty map is better by default.

Looks awesome.

Arkham Knight was similar. There were levels for upgrading tech.

There's also supposed to be a Suicide Squad game coming.

It might be a little strange to see two very similar games...

But damage numbers and the voiceover spoke of what sounds like RPG style attack and defence stats that improve with levels. Enemies have levels which has the classic problem that I've discussed before. That's the stuff that just doesn't need to be in a game like this.

Wonder if there will be a deal for PS.  

Exclusive character coming!
