Like a certain film franchise known for fast and occasionally furious car chases, Gotham Knights is built around the idea of family. Although they’re initially at odds with each other, Batman’s proteges will learn to function as a Bat-family of crimefighters, according to Gotham Knights developer Warner Bros. Montreal.
In a new trailer for the game, the studio revealed trailers on the family dynamic that’s at the core of the story and how Nightwing, Batgirl, Red Hood, and Robin have united in a shared mission to protect Gotham City.
While Batman is (probably) dead in Gotham Knights, the gang will still have a father figure to lean on. As seen in the trailer, Alfred Pennyworth has moved into the Belfry that the team uses as their headquarters and he’ll be available to patch characters up while also dispensing some sage wisdom. Alfred has unique interactions with each of the heroes, and Warner Bros. Montreal added that there are dozens of cinematics between him and the young cast.
