In the main story campaign, players will live Bruce Wayne’s origin as Batman, as he trains with Ra's Al Ghul-led The League of Shadows and returns to Gotham to become its watchful protector. Over the course of his crime-fighting career, he will meet and join forces with allies like Jim Gordon, Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl, Catwoman and Talia al Ghul.
Several iconic villains from Batman’s Rogues Gallery play important roles in the game’s storyline as The Dark Knight will encounter threats in the form of The Joker, Bane, The Penguin, Mr Freeze, Poison Ivy, his mentor Ra's al Ghul, and more DC Comics characters.
The 100 suits and outfits collection comprises a variety of Batsuits and individual outfits for every playable character. These are “inspired by Batman’s legacy in film, television, comics, and games,” said the developer.
Players will also get to use over 20 Batmobiles and Batcycles to explore the open world of Gotham City. Yes, the Tumbler is included.
With 250 Batcave Props and Trophies available, players can display various items and proudly adorn their Batcaves with their accomplishments.
