take on the crimefighter next year. This was unveiled during last night's game
awards show, and the following announcement says the video from the show will be

hit the Internet
instantly, though it really doesn't show anything:
Telltale Games, with
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and DC Entertainment, today announced an
interactive episodic game series based on DC Comics’ iconic Batman™ that is set
to premiere in 2016. The official title for the Telltale series is yet to be
revealed.
The episodic game series will premiere digitally on home consoles, PC/Mac, and
mobile devices. Specific platform details are yet to be announced.
“At Telltale, we’ve been honored to bring our unique approach to interactive
storytelling to some of the biggest entertainment franchises in the world, and
we’re excited to announce that we’ll soon be exploring what it means to be
Batman in an all-new series starting next year,” said Kevin Bruner, Co-Founder
and CEO of Telltale Games. “This iteration of Batman will give fans a first-hand
opportunity to dive deeper into the complex life and mind of Bruce Wayne, the
duality of his own identity, and the struggle of responsibility in saving a city
overcome with corruption and villainy.”
“Telltale has an established track record of creating award-winning content for
some of the best properties in the world,” said David Haddad, President, Warner
Bros. Interactive Entertainment. “We look forward to working with the team as
they deliver a new interactive way for fans and gamers to experience the rich
