We already knew Gotham Knights was going to rear its head at SDCC, and now we know it’s going to be to show off Batgirl gameplay. The new Batman game is set to release worldwide on October 25 via PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. In the build-up to release, WB Games Montreal has pledged to provide deep dive into the gameplay of each of the game’s four characters. Last month, they kicked off this initiative with Nightwing and Robin. Now, it looks like Batgirl is next and going to get her spotlight during SDCC.

The news comes the way of the official Gotham Knights Twitter account, which doesn’t say much, but confirms it’s the character’s “turn” at SDDC. When exactly during SDCC is this all going to happen? Well, probably during the game’s panel, which is set to go down Thursday, July 20 — aka tomorrow — at 3 p.m. PT. As for Red Hood, there’s still no word when the last remaining member of the foursome will get his own spotlight treatment.
