It’s not long until Gotham Knights will be punching its way to RPG fans and the latest launch trailer introduces the heroes. The footage shows Batgirl, Red Hood, Nightwing and Robin, four heroes taking up the mantle of superheroes after the death of Batman. Echoing throughout the trailer are names that these heroes get often called, weighing in on their insecurities of being called just a “sidekick”.

But turns out it’s Alfred giving a pep talk and has other plans for the heroes. He explains like himself, “master Bruce saw more” in them. While Batman is gone, his legacy will live on in these newer shiny heroes. But they’ve got big bat boots to fill as they “Step into the Knight”, the tagline that ends the trailer. We also get a glimpse of the enemy for this game, masked up and ready to battle.
