I'm surprised that no one has been talking about this especially as a gameplay trailer was released quite recently and to be honest I can see why no one's really talking about it. Visually it looks very last gen and way behind what Arkham Knight achieved about 8 years ago, from a gameplay angle it looks really tired and stiff and the loot aspect looks pretty forced. I'm aware it's next gen only now but that seems to be because of a networking issue to get synchronous 4 player co-op but it looks nothing what a next gen game should be. Thoughts?

Yeah, looks a bit shit to me. Might check it out if it reviews well, but I can't see that happening somehow.

I was looking forward to this until that last gameplay demo honestly, for the exact reasons you've mentioned in the OP. Stiff looking gameplay and there just doesn't seem to be real improvement over a game that released 8 years ago. Regression if anything.
I'm a big fan of the Arkham games so it's a shame the formula seems to have been ditched. This looks a bit too far apart and Rocksteady's Suicide Squad will probably play quite differently too with it being a co-op based game without Bats. Maybe this will be more fun to play than it appears.

Can't wait to see what that wacky Riddler got up to in 8 years. Hoping for a thousand of those trophies at a minimum.

Isn't that from Arkham Knight?

Not seen much of the gameplay videos doing the rounds, is the combat in the vein of the Arkham games?

Yeah it's the same combat.
It looked like they had tightened it up quite a bit in the latest ign video and got some weight back into it.

It's similar but from what I recall this one has no counters and also has enemy health bars
It did look poor in the past, haven't seen the latest video though

The floaty combat and loot driven nature really put me off this tbh.

And world traversal looks awful with the hoping-on-air and teleporting crap.
But I'm playing the Arkham games atm and I kind of want this anyway.

The teleporting looked like something from an early prototype not a game that's gone gold and coming out in two months.
I think this one is going to turn out "okay" at best, it just doesn't look too great.

Is this a co-op game or do you just rotate playing between the four heroes?

But only two player which was likely a limitation because of last gen but those versions have been ditched.

Ah, bit of a shame.
Still - for me getting one friend for regular sessions will be much easier than four so I'm not too fussed.

It's really weird how this looks worse than Arkham Knight. Am I imagining this because on the PC it looks absolutely amazing still.

You're not imagining it. Arkham Knight was really a visual powerhouse when it launched. If it were to get a 4K patch on PS5 and Series X, it'd still look pretty impressive.

Sounds like this'll be perfect for Game Pass.

Is there a game that wouldn’t be perfect for GamePass?

Perhaps but there are some games you want to buy and keep forever whereas this is the game that you feel like you'll be disappointed in if you paid full price money for it. A true Gamepass game.

As in wait for the inevitable Game Pass announcement rather than a launch day purchase.

Would have been a decent title for ms to try and get day one to make up for their exclusives slipping into next year.

Well WB games are often on Gamepass so it's inevitable.

Yeah, they're up there with Namco and Sega as the biggest supporters of GamePass.
Also their games are seemingly on sale like every 3 weeks.
