New Arkham Knight Characters Unlocked For AR Challenges
Batman: Arkham Knight developer Rocksteady Studios has made character selection available in the game’s AR Challenge mode beginning today, according to a tweet by the developer. Players can now control one of eight different characters in any of the game’s AR challenges.
Unlike previous entries in the series, Arkham Knight didn't feature the ability to choose your character out of the box. This update adds that function back in with the large roster of playable characters featured throughout the story.
Playable characters include Batman, Nightwing, Red Hood, Robin, Catwoman, Harley Quinn, Azrael, and Batgirl. Game director Sefton Hill also stated last month that additional predator maps will be arriving in November.
PC fans will be able to try this out when the game is returned to sale. Rocksteady and WB Games expect that to happen at the end of October.
