Developers behind the cooperative action comedy Gotham Knights have unveiled a trailer introducing the fourth main character, the Red Hood. Fans who have followed the series already know the prior entries spotlight Batgirl, Robin, and Nightwing, each trailer building anticipation for the ensemble cast that defines Gotham Knights’ unique vibe.

In this reveal, the Red Hood—portrayed as Jason Todd beneath the mask—brings a distinct arsenal and playstyle. Rather than relying solely on brute force, the hero wields pistols and fragmentation grenades, while also channeling a surreal power set that includes throwing pale turquoise skulls midair. This unusual toolkit creates dynamic combat patterns, letting players mix quick, ranged strikes with occasional aerial bursts. The powers appear to be sparked by a catalyst connected to Jason’s brush with the beyond, an echo of mystical forces awakening after his return from the other world. The result is a hero whose intense focus on protecting Gotham persists even as the past looms large and his sanity is challenged by the supernatural strain—proof that the Red Hood is ready to fight at any cost, even when demons from within drift into the fray.

Gotham Knights is scheduled to launch on October 25 for PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5, inviting players to assemble a formidable squad capable of adapting to a broad range of criminal threats across a lived-in version of Gotham City.
