In reviewing Gotham Knights our Mattia wrote:
“For comic book fans it’s great to be able to take control of the Bat-Family and deepen their interpersonal relationships. The different cutscenes of daily life are truly splendid to follow and offer a new perspective to these characters. And for those unfamiliar with them, Gotham Knights offers a wonderful opportunity to meet Dick, Barbara, Tim and Jason and discover what this universe offers much more oltre a Bruce Wayne.”
