How to Unlock Glide in Gotham Knights

This may end up being a sticking point for many players, but the ability to glide is something you must unlock in Gotham Knights.

While Batgirl, Nightwing, Red Hood, and Robin can all either grapple their way through Gotham or ride the Batcycle, gliding comes at a cost.

Players must complete Knighthood Challenges in order to unlock their gliding ability as well as Knighthood skill tree. Below, we’ll break it down into simple steps.

Training exercises can be accessed in the space between the training dummy and weight sets. Simply complete ‘Timed Strikes’ and a set number of premeditated crimes, and you’ll be able to bounce around Gotham. It should be noted that you do not have to do this for every character at the same time. And, each character has a different “gliding” ability.

All ‘Glide’ Abilities for Every Character in Gotham Knights

  • Batgirl: Similar to Batman, Batgirl has a cape and can, in fact, Glide through the skies of Gotham.
  • Nightwing: With his flying trapeze, Nightwing too can Glide through the skies. Now the fun starts.
  • Red Hood: Utilizing spirit platforms, Red Hood gets to use his Mystical Leap ability.
  • Robin: Via slideways, Robin activates portals to move from place to place.

And that’s that, everything players need to know in order to glide in Gotham Knights. It takes some grinding, but not too much, and each character has their own special ability.
