On the eve of release, developer Telltale Games has unveiled the moody launch trailer for “City of Light,” the fifth and final episode of Batman: The Telltale Series that signals a crucial moment for the Wayne family and the citizens of Gotham City.
Last time we checked in on Telltale’s Batman, the Children of Arkham had pushed Troy Baker’s masked vigilante to the brink, and without delving too far into spoiler territory, it certainly makes for an enticing conclusion to what’s been an engrossing take on the Caped Crusader. “City of Light,” the season finale of Batman: The Telltale Series, will swoop onto PS4, Xbox One, PC, iOS and Android on December 13. It’ll debut for PS3 and Xbox 360, too, and those on PC platforms can download the pilot episode, “Realm of Shadows” free of charge.
Here’s the official logline for tomorrow’s finale:
“The leader of the Children of Arkham prepares to execute the final act of a plan to destroy the Wayne family name, and the people closest to you are in their path of vengeance. Can Batman’s ultimate secret be kept–his very identity–when it is causing chaos and death in Gotham? The fate of the Wayne family and of the city itself rests on your choices. What will you do? How far will you go? Which mask will you wear?”
The inaugural season of Batman: The Telltale Series will draw to a close tomorrow, December 13. It’s set to be a grand finale for Telltale’s Caped Crusader, given how episode 4, “Guardian of Gotham,” panned out. Providing you’re all caught up with the studio’s episodic story, be sure to check out our review of the penultimate installment ahead of tomorrow’s curtain call.
Elsewhere on the Telltale slate, another marquee series that’s looming on the horizon is The Walking Dead, which will commence its third season with “Ties That Bind” Part I & Part II on Tuesday, December 20.
