Then you will be able to choose one of the four main characters in the game, which include Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl, and Red Hood, to roam around an open world and stop the baddies from destroying Batman’s beloved Gotham City.
Speaking of villains, the game will also add some new villains of Batman from the DC universe.
