‘Batman Arkham Knight’ Trailer Shows Robin, Catwoman And Nightwing Character Switching Feature

After a brief weekend tease, Rocksteady Studios and Warner Bros. Interactive have revealed the Batman’s backup. A new trailer, called “All Who Follow” shows the Caped Crusader getting a helping hand from none other than Robin, Catwoman, and one-time member of the dynamic duo; Nightwing.

The new “All Who Follow” trailer, hosted on the official "Batman Arkham" YouTube page sees a host of fan favourites make an appearance. Detective Jim Gordon, Barbara Gordon A.K.A. Oracle, and Bruce Wayne’s loyal butler, Alfred Pennyworth are all seen, even as the villainous Scarecrow promises Batman that he will bring death to all who follow him.

The pace picks up as Robin, Catwoman and Nightwing are introduced, in a flurry of quick cuts that shows Batman teaming up in combat with each one of his allies against the villains running the streets of Gotham. Aside from close-knit teamwork in combat, gamers are also given a good look at some more Batmobile-based vehicular mayhem, as well as a fleeting glimpse at what appears to be the Batplane.

The trailer follows the recent tease of a new feature on Twitter by “Batman Arkham Knight” game director, Sefton Hill. According to Gamespot, that feature is called Dual Play, which is the ability to switch control between Batman and his Allies during freeflow combat.

“Not to rub it in but I reviewed the latest edit and it's looking sweet, you might well see someone familiar from Arkham City in there. The trailer also shows off a very cool new feature to “Batman Arkham Knight” that no one outside of Rocksteady / Warner has seen before,” Hill teased.
