Batman Teams With Nightwing In Arkham Knight Dual Play Video

Rocksteady Studios, Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, and DC Comics have released the second episode of "Arkham Insider," the video preview series leading up to the release of Batman: Arkham Knight. The new video goes in depth on one of the most exciting new additions to the Arkham trilogy's finale, the Dual Play mechanic.

In the video below, Lead AI Programmer Tim Hanagan gives a walkthrough of Dual Play combat, which sees Batman jumping into the fray and quickly joined by NIghtwing. Players are able to seamlessly swap between controlling Batman and Nightwing, with the AI taking over the second character and without sacrificing any of the game's other combat systems.

While it's not seen in this video, Rocksteady has previously revealed the Dual Play will factor into Predator Mode encounters as well, with Batman's sidekicks helping to take down rooms full of enemies only from the shadows.

Batman: Arkham Knight goes on sale June 23.
