Batman: Arkham Knight is truly the magnum opus of the entire series. The game made by Rocksteady Studios is critically acclaimed for its combat mechanics, visuals, and gameplay, and although the story is kind of sub-par according to a lot of critics, fans still praise the game for its vibe.
Among those hardcore fans who know everything about the title, some players of the game have no idea why J.T. Wicker, who is a GCPD officer, is glowing green. Similar to all the other NPCs that glow green in Arkham Knight, Wicker is also an ally of the Riddler, and he practically works as a mole for the notorious villain.
According to the lore of the game, Wicker somehow came into contact with the Riddler and became a supporter of him. Wicker’s main role consisted of reporting whether Commissioner Gordon was close to catching him or not, and his job also consisted of placing Riddler Trophies across the whole of Bleake Island.
Other informants glow green, indicating that they are working for the Riddler and can be interrogated by Batman. Although the option is not available when you see Wicker inside the GCPD precinct near the lock-ups, you can still press the interrogate button to give him a good scare and make him blurt out his crimes.
It’s honestly a funny interaction seeing the GCPD cop swearing that he is not a bad cop, and yet Batman just throws him inside the cell while looking all badass.

This little interaction with the GCPD officer is like a testament to Rocksteady Studios’ attention to detail in Batman: Arkham Knight. Even after the game is almost a decade old, fans are still finding new hidden touches that make the game feel more alive, no matter how many times you play it.
These little interactions speak volumes about the care and detail that Rocksteady has poured into the game. With Rocksteady reportedly cooking up something new for the Arkham series, our expectations, as well as our excitement, are very high.
While we are still unsure when the next installment in the Arkham series is going to come out, one thing we are sure of is that Rocksteady is not going to disappoint with the next title. They may even hide even more secrets and puzzles that the world’s greatest detective has to solve.
