The people behind the excellent 'Walking Dead' games are making a Batman game
A new Batman game is coming in 2016, from the same studio that developed the excellent "The Walking Dead" games.
There's no name for the game just yet, but it does have a very teasy teaser trailer - it was shown tonight during The Game Awards, an annual award show in Los Angeles.
Telltale Games
The stuff Telltale Games makes is heavy on story over gameplay. They play out more like interactive fiction than most games, focusing on choosing a story path and crafting narrative over carefully timed button presses.
It looks like this Batman game will focus more on the story of Bruce Wayne, pre-Batman, rather than the darker Batman we've seen in the Christopher Nolan films. Here's Telltale Games co-founder and CEO teasing the new game:
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 Games is familiar with big licenses like Batman.
Telltale Games
The studio has worked with a ton of heavy-hitters: "Back to the Future," " Game of Thrones," "Minecraft," and many other major franchises. Games come out in episodes, and are collected in seasons for release as a package. The decisions you make in the first episode factor into the story that plays out in the final episode, so make sure to choose all the combat training early on when this new Batman game arrives in 2016.
Telltale Games' Batman game is headed to "home consoles, PC/Mac, and mobile devices," and knowing Telltale Games, that means "it'll be on anything that'll run it."
