To celebrate the forthcoming game's release, Telltale has released a new launch trailer that sets the tone for what we can expect from Batman: The Enemy Within, which is set to arrive in just a few days.

We're just a few days away from getting into the second season of Telltale Games' Batman series, and based on what we've seen thus far, we're in for quite a ride, as the Dark Knight goes head-to-head against a very sadistic Riddler. Right off the bat, you can see just how much Riddler is losing it, with a new look that's far from his charismatic green outfit and putting an innocent victim inside a machine that slices and dices.

From there, we get a glimpse of Batman's investigation into what's going on with the Riddler – and, for that matter, also a neat cameo appearance from Amanda Waller, for those of you keeping up on your comic book lore.

The company's official game description is below:

In this latest chapter, both Bruce Wayne and Batman will be forced into precarious new roles. The Riddler has returned to terrorize Gotham City, but his gruesome puzzles merely foreshadow an even greater crisis. With the arrival of a ruthless federal agent and the return of a still nascent Joker, Batman must navigate uneasy alliances while Bruce Wayne undertakes a perilous series of deceptions. Which of Batman's new allies will you choose to trust? And how deep into the darkness will you let Bruce descend?

This new season will be accessible to both returning fans and newcomers alike, though players' choices from the first season of Batman: The Telltale Series will optionally carry over into The Enemy Within. This season will also include Telltale's unique multiplayer 'Crowd Play' feature, which allows friends and family to engage with the adventure together by helping to decide the direction of the story from any mobile device with an online connection.

Rendered to look like a living, breathing comic book, Telltale's vision of Batman features an award-winning cast of talent including Troy Baker, who returns to reprise his role as Bruce Wayne, as well as Anthony Ingruber, who will reprise his fresh take on 'John Doe,' better known to fans as The Joker.

The first chapter of the new season will be available on August 8th for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, mobile devices, and PC.
