The city of Gotham Knights will be “the largest version of Gotham that has been represented in a video game,” according to its managers, who also talk about customizing the bike.
Gotham Knights is proposed as one of the most important releases of 2022, cancellation of previous generation versions . As its premiere approaches, scheduled for October 25 on PS5 , Xbox Series X/S and PC, those responsible for the project give more information about what we can expect from this title. In an interview with Game Informer, Fleur Marty and Geoff Ellenor , producer and director of the game respectively, have shared new details about two fundamental aspects of Gotham Knights : the stage and how we will move through it.
Regarding the game’s map , which has already been announced as a varied city with optional secondary content, the director of Gotham Knights has assured that it is a space of considerable size, even more than other Gothams in the video game: ” It is quite large I haven’t put one map on top of another, but our Gotham is a big place,” says Ellenor in the interview, where she has also acknowledged her preferred way of getting around it: “I usually spend a lot of the video calls in the Batcyle driving around Gotham . It’s one of the quickest and most relaxed ways to get around the city.”
Fleur Marty, producer of the game, has not hesitated to compare the city of Gotham Knights with previous Batman game maps : “Of course it is the largest version of Gotham that has been represented in a video game”, he begins by saying in the interview before to also talk about how we can move around it: ” The most important thing for us is density and verticality . It has many layers, and the Batcycle is the appropriate means of transport for long distances,” he explains.
The Batcyle and the suits will be customizable
Given the importance that both attach to the Batcycle , an important issue arises in the interview: can it be customized? The answer given by those responsible for the game will please those who like to change the colors of their characters and vehicles in video games: “You will get color palettes for both the suits and the motorcycle . We created the same palettes for the Batcycle and for the outfits because we thought that people might want to combine their suit with the vehicle. We give a lot of options in that sense, “says Geoff Ellenor, who also talks about the improvement of abilities of the bike , which will depend on the hero we are controlling.
Gotham Knights will arrive on October 25 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC.
