With the first episode set for launch sometime in 2016, Bruner has stated that their adaptation of Batman will be unlike any other Batman game on the market. Speaking to Kotaku, Bruner said:

Since the popular Arkham franchise is now concluded with release of Batman: Arkham Knight, Telltale’s version of Batman will be a welcome return to the world of Gotham. Since it is highly unlikely that Telltale will make some large-scale open-world Batman game, it is expected that their upcoming take on Batman will feature the usual Telltale point-and-click gameplay. What will be interesting is how the origin story of Bruce Wayne will be handled, especially if Telltale uses their trademark branching storyline mechanic.

With a large slate of games on their agenda including Game of Thrones, Tales of the Borderlands, The Walking Dead, and a host of unannounced original IP, Telltale are undoubtedly a busy lot. But with the Telltale team now growing to over 300 people, Bruner has stated that they’re well-prepared to handle their large workload:

Given that Telltale is obviously juggling more than four series at once, there’s a worry that the studio may be spreading themselves a little too thin, and the quality of the games may suffer. But based on how the first episode of The Walking Dead: Michonne turned out, Telltale appears to have quality control under wraps at the moment.

With a very busy 2015 over, it looks like 2016 is set to be another big year for Telltale. In addition to Batman, Telltale is expected to wrap up The Walking Dead: Michonne and Minecraft: Story Mode, while news for their highly-anticipated The Walking Dead: Season Three is expected to drop at some point.

Couple those titles with an upcoming console game set in the Marvel Universe, a TV and game collaboration with Lionsgate Studios, and the reveal of Telltale’s own original IP at some point in the future, it looks like gamers can expect a lot more things from Telltale Games for a while yet.

The first episode of Batman: A Telltale Game Series will be launched at some point in 2016. No platforms are confirmed yet, but it is expected that the game will be available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
