The first details about Telltale's Batman Video Game have been dropped, with more to come soon. Of note, it's been said that it is a fresh interpretation of the universe untethered from any existing Batman franchise. So, this doesn't sound connected the DCCU's Batman at all. Dissapointing, but it can still stand on its own and we will learn more soon. And hey, it's one more Batverse for all of us fans to learn about and playthrough after all. A missed opportunity brings its own opportunity.

Honestly, I would have been surprised if they’d had the game be strictly connected with any of Batman’s main universes–I assumed from the start that they’d want to create a new take on it. But like you said, that’s not necessarily a bad thing! After all, look at the rich world the Arkham games created. 

I looked it up and found this:

• Each night, Bruce Wayne chooses to change Gotham for the better. The team wants to explore what the consequences are of the player’s actions when decisions made as Bruce have a critical impact on his nightly crusade as Batman, and vice versa. Certain key situations will give the player the decision to approach a scene as Bruce or Batman, with consequences for both sides.
  
• Fresh interpretation of the universe set in current times, not tied to any existing iteration of Batman in games, film, or comics. Story will focus on Bruce and Batman, not an examination of the extended ‘Bat-family,’ (Robin, Nightwing, etc.) Fans can expect certain series staples such as Alfred Pennyworth, Vicki Vale, James Gordon, and Renee Montoya. Telltale is looking to keep the villains more tightly under wraps until closer to the premiere.
  
• Certain characters will have a deeply personal relationship with Bruce in his private life, and decisions made as Bruce or Batman will affect their paths towards corruption or redemption.
  
• The player’s actions will help shape the Gotham that Bruce deals with during the day, as well as the criminals that Batman faces at night.

That’s quite an interesting take. I’m intrigued.
