We’ve gotten used to next-generation titles getting pushed  back, and Gotham Knights is the latest. Gotham Knights has been delayed to 2022 to give the development team at more time to “deliver the best possible experience for players.” The news was announced via a Twitter post, with the familiar text-via-image that many game fans have come to associate with game delays.

Gotham Knights will now launch worldwide in 2022.
We are giving the game more time to deliver the best possible experience for players. Thank you to our amazing fans for your tremendous support of Gotham Knights.
We look forward to showcasing more of the game in the coming months.

Gotham Knights is an all-new game that isn’t a part of the Arkham-verse, while Rocksteady’s Suicide Squad takes place in the longstanding Batman universe of the Arkham games. WB Montreal had previously made Arkham Origins.
