“Batman lies broken at the hands of the villainous mastermind Bane. With Bruce Wayne paralyzed from the waist down and unable to continue as Batman, a new successor must be chosen to defend Gotham City,” according to the film’s official plot synopsis. “Jean-Paul Valley, the man also known as Azrael, must take up the mantle of the Batman. But will his more violent methods be enough to stop Bane?”
The clip embedded below features a chase sequence and brutal hand-to-hand fight between Nightwing (voiced by Mike Prater) and Jean-Paul Valley/Azrael (voiced by Pablo Schreiber).

Knightquest is a sequel to Batman: Knightfall Part 1: Knightfall, which was released in June. In his review, IGN’s Jesse Schedeen gave that film a score of 9/10, writing:
“Batman: Knightfall Part 1 - Knightfall is a strong return to form for DC’s direct-to-video movie line. The first part of this animated trilogy succeeds in cutting through the fat and adapting the essential core of a classic Batman crossover. It paints a vivid psychological portrait of both Batman and his latest arch-nemesis. The film also looks great and boasts a talented voice cast that brings this venerable source material to life. This new DC animated trilogy is off to a great start.”
