It’s the telling of that part of the Gotham Knights story that occupies so much of the early goings of the game. Around 15 minutes, although some who have played through it would argue it’s even longer than that before things really get going. Controversial three months on from its launch as the PS Plus Premium trial for the game is only an hour long, meaning a quarter of that will be spent watching a cutscene.

Not an ideal way to gauge if you like a game enough to buy the full version. Honestly, even if it was 60 minutes of gameplay, even that might not be enough. Most of the trials currently available through PS Plus Premium are at least twice as long.A trial for The Last Of Us Part 1was added to coincide with the adaptation premiering on HBO and lets players experience the first two hours of the game. No 15-minute cutscene to sit through either, just a whole lot of heartbreak.

Odds are WB Games Montreal will have to let people experience more than an hour of Gotham Knights before it enjoys a spike in sales.
