that the batman is supposed to be dead in dcs recently launched superhero action game gotham knights was announced long back right with one of its trailers but now you can see a part of the backstory of how he actually dies in the gotham knights game universe before the actual game begins dc recently released the prologue for its latest crimefighting action game a prologue that shows the death of bruce wayne himself the video is around 12 minutes long and features a long fight inside the batcave where the caped crusader ultimately goes down fighting none other than the demons head the leader of the league of assassins and his trainer ras al ghul ras and a heavily injured bruce going head to head one last time inside the batcave looks very much inspired from the injustice fighting games by netherrealm studioshere is the clipgotham knights official prologue cinematic the death of batman dcthe four who trained under bruce arent the sidekicks anymore nightwing batgirl robin and the red hood will not just have to fill in for batman but also prove their worthiness as gothams protectors without the guidance of bruce now that the criminal underworld of the court of owls will swoop in thinking that gotham is ripe for the takingis batman really deadthere could be more to the story than meets the eye and fans would not so easily accept the death of bruce wayne certainly not in the fashion of how it is shown in the official prologue if he can lay down plans to take down every member of the justice league should they go rogue he can also have a contingency plan to stop ras al ghul going super neurotic about planning for every bad eventuality is something thats hardwired into the dna of bruce wayne and is one of his signature character traits so how could he leave ras al ghul out it doesnt look likely maybe the game will reveal more on this part of the story towards its end then there is the mystery of ras did he really die too in this universe there is plenty to speculate onfor now the batman could very well be dead in the game universe of gotham knights or not
