WB Games Montréal has released new gameplay footage of Gotham Knights, which shows Nightwing and Red Hood infiltrating a Court of Owls hideout. The former Robins count as just two of the playable characters featured in Gotham Knights, with Barbara Gordon's Batgirl and Tim Drake's Robin rounding out this version of the remaining Bat-family members. WB Games originally unveiled the title during DC FanDome 2020, teasing a 2021 release window that got pushed to 2022 not too long thereafter.
