As with previous instalments within the franchise there will be a plethora of gadgets and weapons with which Batman can utilise effectively to help take down foes, traverse the open world Gotham or acquire Riddler trophies. Classic gadgets such as the famous batarang, line-launcher as well as the grapnel gun return and all of which are designed to help Batman get across the Gotham landscape more effectively. For example, a new inclusion within the game is the ability for Batman to quickly switch 180 degrees using the grapnel gun while the player is in flight. This addition allows quicker and smoother manoeuvrability throughout Gotham and eliminates the problem of landing then switching back again. It is not yet known whether other classic gadgets such as the explosive gel, cryptographic sequencer or sonic batarang will make a return but it's probably a pretty safe bet that they will at some point, especially considering the depth and diversity of Gotham's architecture.
