2. Factions Trying To 'Capture The Knight?'

As outlined previously, Warner Bros Montreal has been teasing their upcoming title for several months, sharing out strange emblems like the ones above, which appears to be a reconstructed GCPD logo. These images would come alongside taglines such as 'Capture the Knight'.

When the emblems are put together, they appear to show four circles in the middle, alongside several circles on the outer-rim as well.

It's believed that these circles in the centre represent the Bat-Family - i.e Batman, Robin, Batgirl and Nightwing - while the circles around the outside represent various criminal factions in the game.

This will be tied into an alleged gameplay mechanic where factions are trying to 'Capture the Knight' - aka the Dark Knight, Batman. It's not known at this point exactly how that's going to work, but it sounds like it's going to be a hefty part of the plot. Maybe the Court of Owls have enlisted the various scum of Gotham to put an end to Batman before he becomes a massive thorn in their side?

This faction element is going to tie-in with another mechanic which you may recognise from the Middle Earth games...
