Summary of bigger news updates from E3:

Throughout the week of E3, we will try to update this section of the thread with quick bullet points of larger announcements such as the game's final title, any potential new features, etc. Check back often!

  • Via Verge article: "There will also be detective sequences, which makes the new Batman sound a lot like Telltale's riff on the Fables comic book, called The Wolf Among Us. That game similarly featured a mix of conversation, action, and investigation, and it's one of the studio's strongest efforts yet."

  • Via CinemaBlend article: Telltale are aiming to have all five episodes out this year. In other words, expect monthly episode releases to return!

  • Via PS LiveCast Interview: Job hints to potentially expect a concrete date for the series premiere by Comic Con

  • Via PS LiveCast Interview: Job says that in Walking Dead Season 1 Episode 2, Duck makes a reference to Lee being Batman and Duck himself being Robin; this was actually a reference to Telltale knowing that they were going to be working on a Batman game back then, and that "they had been waiting since" to tell people.

  • From IGN Summary: "Indeed, Richard Iggo, Head of Marketing at Telltale, spoke about how the story will present many concepts, characters, and storylines familiar to Batman fans, but as the story progresses they will all be flipped on their heads."

  • From IGN Summary: "We asked if we’d be seeing more of Batman’s supporting cast -- from other heroes like Robin, Nightwing, and Batgirl to his many iconic villains -- and while Telltale didn’t confirm anyone who would appear, they hinted that we’ll be seeing new spins on more familiar characters. We also asked if other DC heroes would appear and got the same kind of yes/no/maybe/probably answer."

  • IGN confirms Episodes will last around 1.5/2 hours - usual episode length.

  • Telltale are aiming for "around an August release"

  • Expect more info around Comic Con...

  • Bruce segments are inspired in tone by House of Cards, Mad Men, etc. Everyone is watching both Batman and Bruce

  • Action scenes will incorporate more choice and be fast paced
