Up until this point if you wanted to play as a member of the extended Bat-family in Batman: Arkham Knight, you were limited to their respective DLC. Now as part of a free update to the game, seven new characters will become playable in the game’s numerous AR challenges, though this number will be less depending on if you purchased a Season Pass or character specific DLC. Whether you’re completed the story or not, you can play as either Batman, Catwoman, Robin, Nightwing and Azrael. If you didn’t purchase the Season Pass yet still bought the Red Hood, Harley Quinn and Batgirl DLC, you’ll have access to those characters as well. Of course if you paid for the Season Pass already, all the roster will be available to you. Though there won’t be any leaderboards for the freshly added characters, there are new three star challenges for each character which will add to your overall Gotham’s Greatest ranking. Expect the roll out to occur soon on both PS4 and Xbox One.
