Batman: Arkham Knight is a action-adventure video game developed by Rocksteady Studios and published by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment

"Batman: Arkham Knight" will feature all playable characters and "Big Head" mode in an upcoming DLC update, as well as a first look at the "GCPD Lockdown" and Tumbler Batmobile gameplays.

The latest "Arkham Insider" video features the new story campaign "GCPD Lockdown" and the new Tumbler Batmobile plus race track. Rocksteady Studios stated that "GCPD Lockdown" will focus on Dick Grayson/Nightwing taking on The Penguin and his thugs, as they have taken over Gotham's Police Department, International Business Times reported.

Nightwing will fight Penguin's men using stealth and a variety of Batman's arsenal, such as the voice modulator, explosive gels, batarangs and many more. Players must also be careful when exploring GCPD as Penguin's men are everywhere and majority of the enemy units are medics, so it is advisable to take them down first.

Gamers can also use their surroundings inside the GCPD such building ledges and scuffles to escape or give Nightwing some room to manuever, as the large areas can be used to strategise their moves on how they can takedown enemy units in many different ways.

Aside from the "GCPD Lockdown," Rocksteady showcased the Tumbler Batmobile gameplay as the race track is inspired by "The Dark Knight" Trilogy movies by Christopher Nolan. The race track is filled with traps and explosions as gamers are tested not just speed and driving maneuverability, but also in skill and alertness on the dangers presented in the course.

In othe news, game director Sefton Hill tweeted that the new DLC update will allow gamers to play all characters present in "Batman: Arkham Knight" - Batman, Robin, Nightwing, Azrael, Catwoman, Batgirl, Red Hood and Harley Queen. Oddly enough, Hill previously stated that character selections will not be included in "Batman: Arkham Knight," as past titles like "Arkahm City" and "Arkham Origins" have the same feature. Sadly, it was not mentioned whether players can use the characters in dual play challenges.

The new "Batman: Arkham Knight" DLC will also feature "Big Head" mode and new trophies like Gangland Express and Rough Justice, GearNuke reported

The Tumbler Batmobile and race track DLC will be available on September 22, while the "GCPD Lockdown" story will launch on September 29.

"Batman: Arkham Knight" is currently available in store for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The PC version will re-launch this fall.
