In November Gotham Knights' Batcycles Just Got A Whole Lot CoolerA Gotham Knights Twitter post has announced that a dedicated multiplayer mode called Heroic Assault will be added to the game on November 29. As a completely separate mode from the main campaign, Heroic Assault will let up to four players come together and complete specific objectives in an arena-like environment. The new Gotham Knights mode will presumably work like a gauntlet, with groups progressing through each of the mode's 30 floors until they reach the end or every hero is defeated. The Heroic Assault update will be completely free, giving all Gotham Knights players a new way to defend Gotham as a family.
Gotham Knights Will Bring All Four Heroes Together
While the game's four heroes will fight crime together, cutscenes also hint at some emotional drama like a Batgirl and Nightwing romance in Gotham Knights. The game will see all four of its playable heroes, alongside loyal butler Alfred Pennyworth, struggle to process the sudden death of Batman. Each of the Knights will deal with the loss in their own way, and the game's story will also see them clash and grow closer in the wake of such tremendous loss. In this way, Gotham Knights will use its large cast to forge both fun multiplayer gameplay and somber narrative moments.
Given the strong focus on its four playable heroes, it seemed strange for Gotham Knights to limit co-op play to only two players. The Heroic Assault mode will rectify this issue by letting four players team up to take down criminals and complete objectives in a specially-built environment. The free Gotham Knights update will arrive on November 29, giving the Bat Family even more opportunities to build their legacy.
