	Media	Author	Review
		Dan Silver The Guardian	"If the Arkham games are Christopher Nolan levels of invention and genius then Gotham Knights is hanging out down in the DC Extended Universe with Zak Snyder and Aquaman. Set your expectations accordingly and there’s enjoyable entertainment to be had. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Aaron Riccio Slant	"The game’s sturdy storytelling (...) gets drowned out by the grind of patrol missions (...) The open world’s randomly generated, narrative-free crimes are blatant padding, a distraction from the stuff Gotham Knights is actually good at"
		Ewan Paterson Screen Rant	"Offers a brave and bold depiction of the Batman Family, making for a unique, albeit flawed, superhero experience (...) Despite (...) its repetitive combat elements (...) this still is an adventure Bat Family fans shouldn't miss."
		Cameron Kunzelman Polygon	"Gotham Knights is lacking some of the interpretive moves that made both Rocksteady’s Arkham games and WB Games Montreal’s own Arkham Origins so fascinating and unique. It’s yet another encounter on the same rain-soaked streets"
		William Hughes AV Club	"It is not, to be clear, all bad. The game’s writing and storytelling work more often than not (...) it’s still hard not to have fun with it for a decent proportion of the time."
		Travis Northup IGN	"A consistently disappointing return to Batman’s troubled city and a distinct step backwards from the past decade-plus of Batman games (...) From the inconsistent frame rates, to the weak story, to one-note combat that rarely feels good."
		Mark Delaney GameSpot	"For a long time no one knew how to make a compelling Batman game, and then we got four of them in seven years. Taking what worked before while seeking to evolve it is admirable, but (...) It feels as though volume of content is given precedence over meaningful content."
		Tauriq Moosa The Verge	"I enjoyed my time with these heroes, villains, and this beautiful world. But I am hesitant to return to or recommend it given the choppy frame rate and sluggish combat. If you can overlook those issues, you’ll find an enjoyable open-world action game "
