Gotham Knights review

Gotham Knights opens with Batman dead and hands Gotham City to the Batman Family: Batgirl, Nightwing, Red Hood and Robin. Warner Bros. Games Montréal calls it an open-world action RPG, and the Steam page describes patrolling five boroughs alone or in co-op, solving mysteries tied to the city's history and facing notorious villains. Co-op is its main reason to exist on this list: it is the only pick here that lets two friends patrol together online. It falls to the bottom for three reasons. First, you never play as Batman, which matters for a list built around him. Second, English Steam reviews are 70% positive across 11,384, the lowest score here and well below every Arkham game. Third, it costs $59.99 and needs Windows 10, 8 GB of RAM, a GTX 1660 Ti or RX 590 and 45 GB of storage, so value and setup trail the $19.99 Arkham games that run on far less.
