DEVELOPERS: WB Games Montréal (primary), QLOC S.A., and other support studios PUBLISHER: WB Games REVIEWED ON: PlayStation 5 from a copy purchased by the author.

In a world of delays, be a Gotham Knights. The past few years have been hard for, well, just about everyone, but the video game industry has certainly undergone some growing pains. As hard-working, and frequently under appreciated, game developers continuously adapt to remote offices, the flood of big budget AAA games that normally happens…
With an October 25th release date seemingly locked in, more of Gotham Knights was shown off today to a hungry public looking for more information on the WB Games Montréal take on the Batman mythos.

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…
After the extremely disappointing day one DLC that came with Batman: Arkham Knight, my optimism about the stand alone Batgirl DLC from WB Games Montreal, titled A Matter of Family, was understandably shaken.
