Gotham Knights Leak Hints At 4-Player Co-Op
A recent leak suggests that Gotham Knights will allow four players to join forces in online co-op, despite previous reports that the game would only support two. Teamwork appears to be a primary tenant of WB Montreal’s upcoming superhero adventure, as Gotham Knights sees Batman’s former protégés Nightwing, Batgirl, Red Hood, and Robin unite to protect Gotham City from a sinister organization called the Court of Owls in addition to classic Batman villains like Mr. Freeze and the Penguin after the mysterious death of the Dark Knight himself. Gotham Knights will also serve as a reboot of Rocksteady’s critically-acclaimed Batman: Arkham series, which WB Montreal once contributed to with the 2013 prequel Batman: Arkham Origins.
Gotham Knights’ interesting setup seems tailor-made for a multiplayer co-op experience, and WB Montreal has previously stated that it will allow two players to team up online in addition to a dark single-player campaign. However, while the game features four playable protagonists, the developers have only indicated that two will be playable in Gotham Knights' co-op at once — likely to maintain the stealth gameplay that Gotham Knights has inherited from the Batman: Arkham series and prevent the inevitable boss battles against the likes of Mr. Freeze from being too chaotic. Still, some fans wish that they could play as all four of Gotham Knights’ heroes at once through online multiplayer, and it looks like they could get that wish after all.
