Telltale Games teased a new project at tonight's The Game Awards - an episodic take on Batman (no final title as of yet). Collaborating with Warner Bros. Telltale will apply their episodic formula to the adventures of the Caped Crusader. Clearly Telltale are going for a very stylised and dark take on Batman, unlike anything we've played in video games before.
"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 narrative world of Batman."
This new game will appear on mobile devics, PC and consoles next year.
