DC Comic Fans - Here are all the Games from DC FanDome!

Recently, a conjoined effort between both DC Comics and Warners Bros. resulted in the birth of a glorious coming together of love for DC - the DC FanDome. A tonne of sweet stuff was announced here, mainly in the form of a movie or a game. Here at GMR Entertainment, we're more interested in the latter. So sit back and relax as we dive into all of the best announcements from the online event!

Gotham Knights - Open World, Open Characters

First off, I'll have to admit that I am, by no means, a DC Comics fan. However, I do like Batman, his gadgets, his butler and ninjitsu. The announcement of Gotham Knights looks to focus on the Bat's sidekicks, each one celebrating the core mechanics of the notorious hero while bringing fresh elements to the table as Batman is somehow dead. 

Supposedly, the title looks to be an open-world game where players may pick which heroes to play as, such as Batgirl and Robin. Overall, they kind of nailed the cinematic trailer. 

The gameplay also looks solid here too. My worries here would have to be with regards to the variety of gameplay across characters and how the story ties into all of their personalities. The title looks to release in 2021. 

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League - More Characters?

The people behind Gotham Knights are not those responsible for the original Batman: Arkham games. In fact, Rocksteady Studios are, and they're up to a project of their own. Indeed, a focus is being made on another corner of the DC Comics family - the Suicide Squad. 

Unlike the previous game though, gameplay is scarce and all we have is a cinematic trailer. We don't know whether all the characters will be playable from the roster of infamous villains. However, what we do know is that it continues where Arkham left off. Take a look at the cinematic trailer yourself: 

Having Superman as the main villain definitely adds to this game, together with the apparent humour on the table. I'll say it again, in a game with multiple characters, the gameplay variety and inclusion of everybody is the studio's biggest challenge. A release date has been set for 2022. 

In short, those are the two games everyone has their eye on. In my opinion, they both look to have their own appeal, but I'm leaning towards the Suicide Squad game.
