[Warning: SPOILERS ahead for Batman: Arkham Knight, and POTENTIAL SPOILERS for Gotham Knights.]. Gotham Knights is a spiritual successor, of sorts, to the Batman: Arkham games' depictions of the legendary Batfamily, but some of its characters are quite different from their Arkhamverse counterparts. A new Gotham Knights trailer, posted to YouTube by IGN, reveals that players will visit Arkham Asylum during the game. The trailer delves into Gotham City's history, revealing that the Arkham family was one of the original five families who settled in the future gothic metropolis.
