A new update for Gotham Knights is here that will place the Gotham Knights up against Starro the Conqueror
Well, it looks like things are going to take a bit of a shift here for Gotham Knights with a new content update and a bit of DLC that we can pick up right now. At least for those that have the game on the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, or PC as of right now. I am sure that WB Games Montréal will make it available for anyone about the get Gotham Knights, but it only makes sense to say it is ready for those that have it. You just need to be controlled to go out and get it all right now. So sayeth Starro, which is the main villain coming at us all in the game now. A weird call to make here for the ground-level heroes we have been playing with thus far.
Yes, it looks as if Starro will be controlling some of the new chaos in the mix of Gotham with the new Heroic Assault mode coming to Gotham Knights. This is a new four-player mode that will have us facing off across thirty floors of enemies out there with Man-Bat being at the bottom of it all. At least, Man-Bat will be one of the main new villains in the fight here for Gotham Knights. Even if it is still controlled by Starro too. It is an interesting take on things and makes me wonder more if the higher-ups know what is going on with their games and just allow the developers to do whatever they want. If it makes for a good and fun game, though, I will always be glad to take it all in.
Gotham Knights — Heroic Assault
Heroic Assault is an online co-op mode that allows players to team up in squads of four and venture into the depths below Gotham City to face off against enemies and complete challenges across 30 action-packed floors. As seen in a newly revealed trailer, the mode features a new threat who is at the source of the chaos – the highly advanced alien lifeform Starro, the Conqueror, as well as the formidable half-human/half-bat hybrid Man-Bat, who is under Starro’s control.
Showdown is a two-player online co-op mode where players can confront supercharged versions of the game’s main DC Super-Villains, including Mr. Freeze, Harley Quinn, Clayface, and Talia al Ghul. Defeating these bosses in Showdown mode will earn players new legendary gear blueprints and unique suit and Batcycle colorways for every enemy overcome.
Heroic Assault and Showdown are standalone online co-op modes accessible as a free update for all Gotham Knights owners. Heroic Assault mode becomes available to players upon reaching Case File 05 in the main campaign, and Showdown mode is unlocked once players have defeated the boss in each main villain Case File.
Did you ever expect to see that the Gotham Knights were going to face off against Starro out there or did you somehow think this was going to be the case? Will we also get to face off with Man-Bat out there after we free them of Starro’s influence or will it always be the case in the game here? Does this show that we will get so many other characters and villains in the mix down the line or will this one be the only massive deviation out there? Go ahead and tell us all of your thoughts on this down in the comments and then feel free to discuss it all as you so wish. We will have all that we can for Gotham Knights as we get it all. Please keep checking back in for all of that and everything else we can find for you all.
