Batman: Arkham Knight - 10 Huge Things We Learned At E3‏

6. Gliding Around Is Breathtaking

A lot of the hype around Arkham Knight so far has been centred on the Batmobile, a totally new addition to the series. But what really got us in this new trailer is just how amazing gliding around this incredibly detailed locale is. After tooling up and getting word from Oracle on Penguin's position, the player directs Batman to leap from a hugely tall building and the city whizzes past, our hearts in our mouths as the ground gets closer and closer, until the Dark Knight opens his cape and glides on gothic wings through the cityscape. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNvjuzdHnsI#t=47 It has all the thrill of base jumping or paragliding, without the need to get proper permits, risk your life, or feel embarrassed that you're doing it whilst dressed as a human-sized rodent. For all the action, plot twists and amazingly fluid combos on show in Arkham Knight, this revamped aspect of the new game is something we're really anxious to play around, as just taking in the surroundings like this is the nearest we;re going to get to feeling like we're really flying in Gotham.
