Gotham Knights Drops New Batgirl Character Trailer
During San Diego Comic-Con, WB Games dropped a brand new trailer for Gotham Knights, this time featuring Batgirl. It's been a minute since we've actually had a discussion about Barbara Gordon being Batgirl, as a lot of the Batman-related video games have often put her in the role of Oracle, simply being a place to snag info and move the storyline along. The last time we got the character in anything beyond a fighting title was when she had her own DLC in Arkham Knight. So to have her here as a main character along with the first three men who held the mantle of Robin at one point is a breath of fresh air. You can check out her trailer below as the game is still set to be released on PC and consoles on October 25th, 2022.
Gotham City still has a Bat, and she's going to make sure everyone knows it. Protecting people runs in her veins and will always be a part of who she is, no matter her identity. The people of Gotham need a symbol to believe in, and there's no one better than Batgirl to be that symbol. A highly trained fighter and expert computer coder and hacker, Batgirl brings both brawn and brains to the team of knights. Using her signature weapon, the tonfa, along with a fierce combination of kickboxing, capoeira and jiu-jitsu, Batgirl can swiftly take down powerful foes twice her size. With dangers new and old on the horizon, Batgirl is more determined than ever to keep Gotham safe and protect the city from falling into chaos.
