TELL ME THAT ISN'T WHO I THINK IT IS AT THE END!
No, really, tell me if it's not, cuz I'm pretty sure it is. And I'm into it.
Are these games getting stale? Arguably. Are quick-time events pretty played out? Maybe.
Am I super pumped for the next interactive Batman story?
Bet your ass.
I've heard the haters and to them I say, "Dude. Play the Rockstar titles if you want Batman fisticuffs. Play this if you want story."
I am a comic nut, so I'm a bit biased, but I love these games. I've heard some people bitch about them, and I think that's because they are wanting something different and being pissed off that they aren't getting it, like going into a pizza place and being upset they won't give you a snow cone. I see these games as well-told, interactive comics and I haven't been disappointed yet.
Check out our review of the last episode here, and you better believe I'll be personally reviewing this one as soon as I can.
Official Release:
Today we are excited to share the official trailer for episode two of Batman: The Enemy Within, a new five-part episodic game series that continues Telltale's unique take on the Caped Crusader. You can download the trailer by following the links above.
The death of a villain at the hands of a mysterious assassin was just the beginning. As explosions rock Gotham, Batman races to meet a new foe, but encounters a force that may cause even the Dark Knight to fall. In the guise of the billionaire, Bruce meets John Doe's 'friends' and becomes enmeshed in a plot where the only way out is to go deeper in. But at what cost?
Episode two, 'The Pact,' launches October 3 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, and Mac. In addition, both episodes one *and* two will become available on iOS and Android-based devices that same day. Going forward, new episodes will launch the same day on all platforms.
A special 'Season Pass Disc' for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 will also be available at retailers starting October 3 in North America and October 6 in Europe. The disc includes the first episode of the season, as well as download access to all subsequent episodes as they are released.
