The Creative Director of Gotham Knights promises plenty of Easter eggs will be in Gotham Knights. Easter eggs have become a norm in the gaming industry, with many developers competing to create the most memorable Easter egg events.
Previously, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Gotham Knights prequel, has been notorious for its numerous Easter eggs. The game has featured multiple nods, villains, and several DC heroes, some of which have been criticized by many players.
However, the game has also had a fair share of successful Easter eggs. One such renowned event was an Easter egg where players would have to destroy a perfect wall to reach a hidden room. In the room, players would get a plan of Arkham city, previewing what the sequel will have.
No Shortage of Easter Eggs in Gotham Knights
Patrick Redding, Gotham Knights Creative Director, spoke to ComicBook when he shared that Gotham Knights will not have a shortage of Easter eggs events. The Easter eggs will be events relating to the theme and story of Gotham Knights. Currently, the sequel has an abundance of stories carrying 400 years of the game’s history. In addition, the game is centered around a rich environment containing multiple valuable nuggets.
Consequently, Redding is optimistic that the team is ready to introduce a lot of Easter eggs in Gotham Knights. In the conversation, Redding says,
“So there’s no shortage of Easter eggs in the game, I can tell you that right now. It would be almost impossible to give a comprehensive overview of that. What I’m saying is that it’s no secret that our Gotham City was created in a very deliberate way to tell a lot of environmental stories.”
Similarly, Redding adds that the rich environment and the extensive Court of Owls storyline give them the chance to place plenty of secrets in the game. According to him, you can find references on old signage and posters. At the same time, you should look for more references on walls within the massive Gotham city environment. Finally, with a keen eye, you should be able to find even more references on a theater marquee, a street, or even Park Row.
