... Proper Nightwing content? 2020 finally gives something back! Really excited to play as Dick retaking Gotham.

I can NOT wait to get my hands on this game. Anything Batfamily gets me pumped, but this is going to be so cool.
Trailer looked amazing. Is Tim teleporting?

He is, is his speciall skill.
Heh, I guess he fought Dodge at some point and took his tech! Dodge was a character from his solo book who stole and then used teleporting tech.

According to the gameplay video, he hacked the watchtower and is using the teleporter, but it only works in short ranges. Still, i like your idea better.
I always like those games combat style for Nightwing. Can’t wait.
Christopher Sean is voicing Nigtwing.

Listened to an interview of his to get an idea for his voice and he sounds perfectly fine as Nightwing. Loren Lester will always be Dick Grayson to me, but much like getting a new Batman voice, I gotta put that aside a minute, but hopefully they give him a lot of room to really act.

I'm only wary because the voice acting in the gameplay...left a little to be desired.

I didn't mind the gameplay. Even though the free flow combat of the arkham series is awesome, i think they want to distance themselves from Rocksteady.
The gameplay is also pre alpha footage and probably nowhere near as polished as it will be upon release. It'll look much nicer.

I'm sure it will.
I mean it kind of has to if it wants to be taken seriously. Look at Final Fantasy 7, that thing is a work of art. The graphics here look decent, but being "decent" isn't going to cut it for a game as high profile as a Bat game.
But for a pre-alpha game trailer? That looks pretty damn solid. The game play looks good. I'll be keeping my eye on this one.
For sure! I mean the Arkham games were gorgeous. That's a standard in and of itself that this game needs to meet... even if it *is* trying to separate from Rocksteady (I don't know if that's the actual goal, just mindless speculation). But yeah for very raw, early footage, this looks great.
I like what I've seen of Chris Sean so far from the interviews I watched. Also, yeah I think there's going to be a lot of improvements from the initial footage to the final product. It's a shame that so many people are ragging on this game for (seemingly) not having Batman. It's clear that this is something the fans have been desiring for a long time, to play as their favorite Bat-ally.

On Twitter? coz on Youtube it's been positive
It's obvious that Batman is either captured by the Owls and is probably Owlman or a Talon in the game. I'd be shocked if he is actually dead.

Yeah, they're treating him like Captain America in the Avengers game.

Hey man, they also said Superman was a key player in Batman v Superman: Dawn of 42 Lines.
But yeah, it's not called Gotham Knights. It's Batman: Gotham Knights. It's a new continuity. He's going to be in there somewhere. Hopefully he's not combat-ready and the Bat Family have to resolve the entire plot on their own. It'd be a really bad look for all four of them to not be able to measure up.
But then Bad Blood kind of did that with Dick and Damian, so who knows?
Good news, that game - even if its not very good, that's four characters who could really benefit from that kind of boost in the more mainstream eye.
One thing I'm not sure on, and this might be my lack of knowledge of This Type Of Game, but is the idea that the single player campaign can be run through as any of the four characters, switching at any time? Or that there's a plot which involves playing as different characters in different areas?
Both could be fun, but the latter sort of puts a capstone on the level of specific character development you can get.

So somethings definately coming at the next Fandome session.
An focus in Justice League, a return in the comics, prominent focus in a video game, and star of 2 TV shows. Things have definitely been worse for Dick, as we have been reminded of very recently. Things are looking up!
Oh don't get me wrong, a game where you get to play as the fam is absolutely awesome, even if Bruce is the guy who comes back at the end and steals the spotlight in the final bit. Personally I think the final boss will be Talon-ized Batman and you'll save him, but be playing as the fam through the whole thing.
Maybe after you complete the campaign you can unlock Batman then for replay value or something, who knows? But it's a damn good thing either way.
That Ross cover is looking sweet too. Seems like we have another Titans reunion title on the way.

Yeah, seems like we actually have reason to be a little happy, maybe even a little hopeful! Seems like all that is left is to get a good creative team on the solo book and Dick will actually appear as if DC.....respects....him?!?!
And not to #humblebrags here, but I've been saying we'd see a change in the tide like this; Dick's too popular and successful to be abused forever. :D

Is it called Batman: Gotham Knights? I know that was the rumor but it seems like the title is just "Gotham Knights."
I'm kind of expecting a playable Batman but I'm not sure how it would work since it seems like it would be difficult to implement him into the core game mechanics even if it's later in the game and would work against what they're promoting with the story thematically.

There's a single player, so I'm not sure if the game forces you to switch characters at certain points or if the devs are just expecting players will want to switch between the different members while playing.
I am hope. Bringer of awesomeness.
Dick looking like a daddy in the game. Mwah! He is an airbender and is more acrobatic than Batman in the past games. Mwah! I can play him the whole game and kick his great grandfather's ass (and Batman's ass hopefully). Mwah!
Reeves is another universe with the goal of expanding the mythos unlike Nolan. Year Two Batman means the next movie is Year Three or the year the Dynamic Duo is formed. HBO Gotham is Year One tells me Reeves has a long term plan. His favorite Batman stories are The Long Halloween and Dark Victory says alot. The movie is heavily inspired by The Long Holloween, the mobs and the genesis of Gotham's era of supervilllains. I love it. I really love it.
Titans is still focused on Nightwing. Bring on more Gotham. But those poor Titans comic fans. I can't wait for the LIVE-ACTION DICK AND BABS SINCE THE 60'S. I can't also wait for Under the Red Hood but Batman is replaced by Nightwing. It would be fun.
NOT TO MENTION WE STILL GOT MORE UPCOMING SEPTEMBER. Comics, Young Justice, etc. I NEED THAT SNYDER DICK GRAYSON STORY DC!!!
Edit: I don't even care if Batman becames playable because I love Batman. I just like Nightwing a lot more. It's frickin' open world Nightwing game. I have been dreaming about it for two decades.

Is this the first time Ross has drawn the NTT line up? Usually he focuses only on the Silver Age Titans.
...Dare I hope for a [I]Justice[/I] style series based around the NTT?

I would love that, especially if DC is placing more focus on out of continuity graphic novels.
I've been a sucker for Ross' stuff since Kingdom Come.

Don't put ideas in my head that we can't have.
So far I think he's teased NTT and GL, both of which are DC series currently in production (Titans, the HBO MAX GL show) so maybe he's just doing promo and hyping up the TV arm of Fandome next month. I wanna be wrong. I need that NTT in my veins post haste.

I feel like if it was a promo for the Titans tv show, they'd be using the tv cast and costumes.
Another variant from Issue #57.
