How Nightwing Is Connected To Gotham Knights’ Court Of Owls
In Gotham Knights, players’ biggest enemy will be the Court of Owls, a secret society that may have a particular interest in Nightwing. Batman’s first Robin will lead Gotham’s new protectors but adopt a more caring, sympathetic style not present with the Dark Knight. As the oldest vigilante in the group, Nightwing is likely to feel a majority of the responsibility for defending Gotham City. Unlike the other Knights, Gotham wasn’t always his home, but the Court of Owls could be invested in his continued residence there nonetheless.
Gotham Knights takes place after Batman’s (supposed) death when Gotham City plunges into chaos between supervillains and secret societies. Players can choose between four playable characters: Nightwing, Red Hood, Batgirl, and Robin to defend the city and continue Batman’s legacy. Villains like Mister Freeze appear to wreak havoc on the vulnerable city but pale in comparison to the Court of Owls, who’ve finally returned to reclaim their home. The Court of Owls is a terrifying Batman enemy who battled the Dark Knight in the comics many times, but it’s unclear how far their influence spreads in Gotham Knights’ universe.
