Batman: Arkham Knight’s Dual Play Feature Brings Double the Pain

May 18, 2015 by Ian Miles Cheong

Team up with an AI companion to beat the crap out of the bad guys.

The developers of Batman: Arkham Knight have released an all new video, this time showcasing the game's Dual Play mode, which is set to overhaul the game's combat system that's remained relatively untouched since the first game, Arkham Asylum. 

Not to be confused with co-op, Dual Play mode allows an AI partner to assist you while in combat, beating up the bad guys alongside you. 

In this new video, Rocksteady shows how players can battle alongside a buddy character as AI programmer Tim Hanagan talks about how you can switch seamlessly between the game's playable heroes using the feature, using combos and a variety of special attacks to bring the hurt to the enemies of Gotham City.

You can watch Batman and Nightwing team up to take down Penguin's goons. The studio also takes the time to answer some questions posed by community super-fan CabooseXBL. 

Batman: Arkham Knight is out on June 23 for the PC, Xbox One and PS4. Those who purchase an Nvidia graphics card between now and some indeterminate point in the future will receive both The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Batman: Arkham Knight as free bundled titles.
