More often that not, you find yourself playing as Batman in Batman: Arkham Knight, but thanks to a mod – you don't have to only be the Bat. Modders have successfully built a mod that lets you play as a number of characters in Arkham Knight's Free Roam mode.
With the mode Red Hood, Harley Quinn, Nightwing, Robin, Azrael, Bruce Wayne, Catwoman, Commissioner Gordon, Joker, and GCPD Officer Owens will be available as playable characters (only in Free Roam mode). The already contained the character files, so it only took a little shifting around to get them into Free Roam.
The modders advice to backup your files and game saves before applying the mod, as it is not official Rocksteady content.
If you own the PC version of the game and have been having issues, know that Rocksteady has released a patch for game and are working to bring more fixes and stability to the game.
