Far from Rocksteady to restrict the player's movement in a Batman game, would-be VR users will get to grapple their way around the environment - albeit in a teleport-style move that doesn't show Batman traversing across rooftops.

One particularly nifty detail is that players can actually holster the grappling gun against their utility belt, then take it out whenever needed. It's not a context sensitive action (which, again, is pretty sweet) and really goes that little bit further to help immerse players in the cape and cowl of the caped crusader.
