If you don't already know the premise of multiplayer shooter Gotham City Impostors, this animated short sets it up nicely. Average citizens don the cowl of the caped crusader, while others smear on the Joker's make-up. Then they try to kill each other.

Wow, that was pretty awesome. I'd like to see unique stuff like this advertising games more often.

Just in case you hadn't caught on to the similarities between GCI and TF2.
Not a complaint, by the way.

I actually look forward to it a bit more.
I still love TF2, you just gotta be on the right server.

Who knew Rusty Venture was a Gotham City impostor?

@(Unverified) You'd think Hank would be the imposter since he's got the Batman mask and costume.

I played this a bit last night and tbh it was a lot of fun. The servers are laggy but it's to be expected cause it's a tech beta. But the gameplay is solid and it breaks up a lot of common ground with unique weapons and gadgets. Plus a lot of quirkiness as one would expect about a game of miscreants like this lol. Oh and they have cool little animation for tutorials for weapons that I was loll'ing about when I watched them.

I floated this idea on a previous post abou this game, so apologies if you've seen it before.
I'm in nerd mode here, but in all likelihood Batman would be just as, if not more, pissed at the Batman vigilantes since they use firearms. That's a big no-no for him.
What might have been cool that if some point during gameplay, Batman swoops in Evil Otto/Berserk style and, regardless of which team, you have to avoid him for 30 seconds or so. He catches you, he shatters your collarbone and you go to jail.
Imagine that for a second: "Allright, another minute and we've got this game OH SHIT IT'S THE BAT RUN!!!!"
Probably not gonna happen, but still. Nerd rage off.
