Agreement—

Poor combat and grueling progression drag this co-op Batman adventure down.

Agreement—

Gotham Knights takes the Arkham blueprint and reimagines it as a loot-brawler, often feeling similar, but where it's different, it's worse.

Agreement—

A solid romp that can’t quite live up to its Arkham predecessors

Agreement—

Gotham Knights is a bit of a botch, a bit of a muddle, and a bit of a charmer.

Agreement—

A misguided action game that can't let go of the past.

Critic72.5/100

Agreement—

Gotham Knights hits most of the marks it's supposed to, but too much busy work and too little gravitas hold it back from previous adventures with the Bat family.

Agreement—

Gotham Knights isn't able to reach the heights of the Batman: Arkham games, instead it plays like an action-RPG that's in search of an identity to call its own.

Agreement—

Gotham Knights is the type of game you so dearly want to love, but time and time again it gives you a reason not to.

Critic80/100

Agreement—

Gotham Knights is a dark, dense and surprisingly gripping action adventure that almost manages to step up to the level of the very best of the Arkham series. There's a cracking story to dive into here, a huge and wonderfully detailed city, tons of lore for Bat fans, brutally crunchy combat, four cool superheroes to get a handle on and some of Gotham's most infamous villains to take down as you fight to prevent an all-out turf war. We were slightly concerned going into this one but, as it turns out, we needn't have been. If you can ignore some messy menus and a few too many upgradeable bits and bobs, you'll have a great time.

Agreement—

Gotham Knights is action-RPG that wraps what could've been a wonderfully realised Gotham universe in a tired, slapdash mix of meaningless numbers and loot.
