The immortal Arkham series featuring one of the most popular DC superheroes, Batman, is regarded as one of the best superhero gaming franchises to date. However, 2015’s Arkham Knight did leave the fans disappointed due to the fact that it was the end of a great trilogy. But now, it’s set to make a return, in a way, with the upcoming Gotham Knights.
Gotham Knights is a co-op game that is set in the same timeline as that of the Batman Arkham franchise. Its story will continue after the events of the last title in the series.

These four heroes are tasked to bring justice to the city after the tragic death of Batman in Arkham Knight. While investigating the Dark Knight’s inexplicable disappearance, the characters come across the Court of Owls. It’s a secret society that is nearly as old as the city of Gotham.
Speaking of the playable characters, then they all will have their own skills and fighting styles. Moreover, players will have the option to either go solo, in Gotham Knights with its single-player campaign or fight alongside a friend in co-op mode.
