Batman Arkham: Court Of Owls - 10 Characters That MUST Appear

If there's one thing the Batman: Arkham series has made sure of, it's that as many characters as possible from the Dark Knight's comics are placed within the games themselves. Between boss fights, side quests and even little bits of lore, even the more obscure hero, villain or supporting character has a decent chance to find themselves in the triple-A title.

However, this isn't to say that every character has snuck their way into the game. With Batman having such an expansive list of allies and enemies behind him, the potential to add yet more new faces is basically boundless.

On a similar level, there are characters who have previously appeared in a minor role, who maybe deserve a more major role in a new entry. With each Batman game being bigger than the last, there's likely room for other characters to have a more prominent feature without cutting the Caped Crusader's screen time too much.

From alternate universes to characters left in the eighties, the capacity for yet more unusual characters to star in the next Batman game - said to be a sequel to Arkham Origins, featuring the Court of Owls as villains - is equal parts exciting and overwhelming.

While Dick Grayson has featured in previous Batman games, it has always been in a pronouncedly minor role, and even then in a way that appeared more geared to make DLC around him than anything else.

But with rumours that the game will come in 'Acts', it seems only likely that - if these acts are to cover important parts of Batman canon that have not yet been shown in game - the rise of the first Robin has to be in them.

With Jason Todd already having had a major role in Batman: Arkham Knight, it's just about time his older brother got a proper look into the video game spotlight.
