WB Games and DC have released a brand-new story trailer for Gotham Knights, the upcoming open-world third-person action RPG. Gotham Knights is being developed by WB Games Montreal and the new video released by the developer at DC FanDome features the game’s main antagonist, the fabled Court of Owls.
Court of Owls is a secret society that is made up of Gotham City’s wealthiest families. In addition, the new story trailer also formally reveals Oswald Cobblepot or known more commonly as The Penguin, the infamous DC Super-Villain. The Penguin knows important details about this omnipresent silent predator and the threat it poses to Gotham City along with the new guard of DC Super Heroes Batgirl, Nightwing, Red Hood, and Robin.
