He goes on to say, “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.’

At some point, people started to realise that TellTale was a quality game developer. ‘Back to the Future: The Game’ showed what TellTale could do when they got their hands on a popular franchise. TellTale was handed the reins to other big franchises. The two biggest, up until now, have been The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones. Both of which covered events outside of the main focus of the series. However, one of the trademark elements of their games is that your choices will shape the course of the game.
So, The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones are big things right now, but when is Telltale Games going to get to tackle a long-running, super popular franchise?
2016, that’s when.
