Gotham Knights Nightwing

The start of this week saw the long-awaited DC Fandome event where we got our first glimpses at the upcoming titles from the DC camp. We saw clips from Suicide Squad Kill The Justice League and Gotham Knights. Both games have got plenty of people talking, despite them not coming out for quite some time (Suicide Squad is slated for a 2022 release).

The legal battle that has been raging between Apple and Fornite seems to show no sign of slowing down as the battle royale launches a new season of content. As Epic try to get Apple to reinstate their game on their store, Apple push back and we still see no end in sight. But, all the while, the new season launched as a number of Marvel skins were added to the game.
