- A "noir-style" Telltale Batman Shadows Edition was announced and then unannounced last week - 14 December 2019
Batman: The Telltale Series is back only this time, it's with a noir twist. Athlon Games published - and then rapidly unpublished - a press release that announced The Telltale Batman Shadows Edition - Batman: The Telltale Series, a new version of the narrative-driven game with a graphical update and a "sinister new look" "noir-style" makeover. "Batman: The Telltale Series cast players into the fractured psyche of Bruce Wayne in a dark and violent original story and challenges players with discovering the powerful and far-reaching consequences of choice as the Dark Knight," the press release says (thanks, Gematsu ). "As Batman, players will encounter classic allies and adversaries, and will learn the true meaning of what it means to be the man behind the cowl as Bruce Wayne." Read more
- Telltale Games rise again, kinda - 28 August 2019
Eleven months after Telltale Games laid off employees and shut down , the company are back. Kinda. Ish. Not really. Holding company LCG Entertainment today announced that they’ve bought a chunk of Telltale’s intellectual properties, assets, trademarks, and technology. Wrapping themselves in the flayed hide of Telltale Games and using their name, LCG Entertainment plan to not only return old Telltale games to sale but make new games in old series too. This isn’t a move by former Telltale folks, mind, more a group of investors. But Telltale are back, baby! Kinda. Ish. Not really. (more…)
- GOG announce a last call for Telltale Games leaving on May 27th - 23 May 2019
The sad saga of Telltale’s fall is due one last tragic chapter. GOG have just announced that all of the defunct choose-your-own-adventure studio’s games will be de-listed next Monday, May 27th at 11am BST. That includes Telltale’s own games like Puzzle Agent, and all three seasons of Sam & Max adventures, as well as licensed games like The Wolf Among Us, Guardians Of The Galaxy, Batman, and the excellent Tales From The Borderlands. The last of which has already been removed from Steam, though publisher 2K Games are working to bring it (and it alone) back, as reported by Eurogamer . (more…)
- Have You Played Batman The Telltale Series? - 1 April 2019
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. Batman – The Telltale Series should probably have been called Bruce Wayne – The Telltale Series given how little screen time the Dark Knight actually gets in the first season of this ill-fated episodic adventure game, but I’d argue that it made for a more meaningful take on some of his relationships with the wider Batman cast – and specifically a person who’s obviously very close to Bruce’s heart: Harvey Dent, aka Two Face.

- Telltale Games reportedly almost shut down with hundreds of jobs lost - 21 September 2018
Update: Telltale have officially confirmed the bad news that they’ve closed most the studio and only 25 employees remain. As reported by Gamasutra , it seems that prolific choose-your-own-adventure studio Telltale Games is shutting down. This is backed up by media posts from developers at and close to the studio, such as Outerloop’s Chandana Ekanayake . The Verge report that a skeleton crew of around 25 will remain at the studio, down from around 250. A source tells USGamer the upcoming The Wolf Among Us 2 and a Stranger Things adventure series have been cancelled. Telltale Games have released no official statement yet. (more…)
- The Joy of Telltale s Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle - 19 April 2018
As an actual adult human being who still reads DC comics, I have to put up with a lot of BatBullShit. It’s not the brooding that gets to me or even the weird and sudden flips between psychologically scarring street-level crimefighting and wacky Justice League space adventures. It’s not the callbacks to events from previous decades that I don’t care about or understand, and it’s not even the fact that the world’s greatest detective solves far too many problems by punching people until they stop moving. It’s the romance that bothers me. The sexytimes. I really don’t care if Batman and Catwoman are making out on a rooftop, or tearing off each other’s costumes in Crime Alley or some other unfortunate locale. It’s not that I object to any of these mostly miserable characters having a bit of fun every once in a while, but just as in a comp…
- Best Frenemies Forever Batman: The Enemy Within s final episode is live - 27 March 2018
The worst kept secret of Telltale’s digital choose-your-own-adventures is that there’s really not much choosing involved. While incidental details may change, the main thrust of the story doesn’t. That may also be the case for the final episode in Telltale’s well received second season of Batman adventures , but while your decisions may eventually lead roughly to the same end, it feels like every call carries extra weight this time, as you help define your personal origin for a truly legendary antagonist. Concluding Batman: The Enemy Within , the fifth and final episode – Same Stitch – is out now, and its two launch trailers paint two very contrasting pictures of the man who is to become The Joker.

- Enter The Riddler s torture chamber in Telltale s Batman: The Enemy Within trailer - 5 August 2017
Feast your eyes on a new trailer for the Batman: The Enemy Within , the second season of Telltale Games’ trip to Gotham . I say feast, it might be more cover-and-squeal, because there’s a particularly nasty sequence of The Riddler, the villain of choice this time around, torturing a man for information. You don’t actually watch the gore but you see the choppy-choppy contraption and hear the saw blades and the screams and your imagination does the rest. Oh, and The Joker makes an appearance too.

- Bap! Bonk! Zzonk! Telltale s Batman Ep 3 Out Today - 25 October 2016
The third instalment of Telltale’s episodic Batman is thunking, vronking, and zgruppping its way out this afternoon. This is the mid-way point of the season and, from what I’ve seen (I’ve not had a bash myself), it looks like the Batstory is potentially branching a bit from established Batcanon of Batbackbatstories. I’d been concerned that the Batburden of Bathistory might Batstifle Telltale’s whole ‘Batchoices and Batconsequences’ Batdealio, Batbut maybe Batthis will Batbe Bata Batinteresting Batone. Here, have a peek in this launch trailer for Episode 3: New World Order. …
