Batgirl DLC For Batman: Arkham Knight Dated, Priced
If you've already tracked down all of the Riddler trophies in Batman: Arkham Knight, and need another Batman fix pronto, you don't have long to wait. Warner Bros is releasing Batgirl: A Matter of Family, a prequel story that takes place before the events of Batman: Arkham Asylum, on July 21 for $6.99. If you purchased the Season Pass for Arkham Knight, you get the DLC a week early on July 14.
A Matter of Family places players into the role of Barbara Gordon (Batgirl) for the first time in an all-new location. This DLC offers several missions, a new hacking gameplay mechanic, and the occasional run-in with Robin for Dual Play combat maneuvers. To much surprise, the DLC is not developed by Rocksteady Studios, and is instead created by WB Games Montreal, the team behind Batman: Arkham Origins.
The DLC is only listed for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
