Gotham Knights Motorcycles Can Fix Arkham Knights Batmobile Problem

The upcoming Gotham Knights, which features drivable motorcycles, has a chance to avoid the lackluster Batmobile gameplay from its spiritual predecessor, Batman: Arkham Knight. Batgirl, Nightwing, Red Hood, and Robin will square off against the mysterious Court of Owls in the wake of Batman’s death in Gotham Knights. Players have already prowled the streets of Gotham multiple times as the Caped Crusader in other games, and his most recent outing in Arkham Knight brought the much-requested feature of a drivable Batmobile, though it ultimately left a disappointing impression that Gotham Knights’ Batcycles have a good chance of avoiding.

Although Gotham Knights has much in common with the Arkham games, it’s set in a completely different universe and will include new gadgets and combat moves for players to use. The game is developed by WB Games Montréal, not Rocksteady, the masterminds behind the mainline Arkham trilogy. WB’s game features a new story that is not a sequel to Arkham Knight, with some differences in characters from the Arkham games, such as Barbara Gordon still being Batgirl rather than Oracle. They still share a lot of common ground, though, and the inclusion of Batcycles in Gotham Knights may make some potential players wary of the prospect of more vehicle combat sections, which were one of the biggest criticisms of Arkham Knight.

There wasn’t really anything wrong with the Batmobile itself in Arkham Knight – it was just implemented poorly in multiple places throughout the game. It essentially had two traversal modes: driving and combat. The first, driving, was actually great. It did nothing more than offer players an alternative to gliding above the streets of Gotham, and there were even some bonus stunt tracks that could be completed for Riddler trophies. The issue came about from whenever players were forced to use the Batmobile’s combat mode, which was semi-frequently throughout Arkham Knight’s main story. With its canon readied, the Batmobile could move omnidirectionally. The combat encounters in the Batmobile boiled down to little more than sitting and waiting for an enemy vehicle to fire, moving slightly out of the projectile’s way, and returning fire.

Gotham Knights’ Batcycles Can Just Be For Transportation

The Arkham Knight Batmobile battles had very little in terms of variation, aside from there being more enemies in some, which only added to the tedium and frustration. Knight’s explorable portion of Gotham was bigger than Arkham City’s, and the Batmobile spiced up the open world a bit with another means of transportation, but that’s all it should have been. Using Batman’s Grapnel and cape to glide endlessly through the night is a great time, but speeding through the criminal-infested streets was a great change of pace. Gotham Knights would do well to remember the common criticism of Arkham Knight’s Batmobile, and keep the driving sequences to high-speed traversal rather than a slow, pattern recognition mini-game.

The best use for the Batcycles in Gotham Knights is simply getting players from point A to point B. In a game not focused on driving, the excitement comes from simply getting to control a Batcycle. Vehicle combat isn’t necessary because it doesn’t play to the strengths of the Arkham-style freeflow combat. It would have been way more engaging to just get out of the Batmobile and fight thugs than it would’ve been to blast them from a distance, and Gotham Knights’ Batcycles can facilitate that change more easily. WB Games Montréal’s new title may throw in some chase sequences, or obstacle tracks for a bit of variety, but limiting driving sections to high-octane sequences will help it avoid Arkham Knight’s Batmobile issues.
