Nightwing

Nightwing was announced just before the release of 'Batman Arkham City'  the 1st of November.

It costs 560 Microsoft Points (XBOX Live) and $6.99 (Playstation Store USA) or £6.99 (Playstaion Store UK)

Weaponry

• Escrima Sticks:

These two sticks are seen in the comic books but with another suprise, they are electrical and pulse an electrical charge in a contained area and can shock the enemy (literally). Can be used for stealth takedowns. Also turn into a throwing weapon. 

• Wrist Darts:

This weapon can be used to knock down or knock out enemies. To knock down an enemy just shoot their body, legs, or arms. To knock out an enemy you must hit the enemy in the head.

• Advanced Offensive Devices:

Offensive means to just attack (Defence is to defend yourself), this means there is more gadgets to enjoy with Nightwing. It shows Nightwing's type of Batarangs he can throw multiple times at enemies.  

Combos (?) So far I've figured out three

X + O = (Melee attack) Nightcrawler combine his shock rods to shock most around him.

D + X = () He throw his stick in the air and kicks it at a goon. This knocks down about 2-3 guys

^ + O = (Knockout) No matter what he knocks out one guy.

Review On Nightwing DLC

8.5 Great

Want another character and two new challenge maps for you to do? Then grab the mute Nightwing for the prices, but if you want more story and things to do in Arkham City, then wait a little longer. Nightwing's gadgets are limited, but they do bring out what you expect of the character (his escrima sticks are brilliant). Most of his attacks are based on his sticks and electricity. His detective mode is a bit old-fashioned, being a radar system, but it still shows where the bad guys are and if they have weapons or not. His outfit is a remenace of his comic version and the animated series outfit that comes with this DLC gives him the same look as Catwoman and Robin animated skin (black outline included).
