The much-anticipated Batman: Death in the Family animated interactive is out now. Warner Bros. Home Entertainment has released a new Batman: Death in the Family clip clip that finds Jason Todd – as Red Robin – coming face to face to face with Two-Face in one of the branches of this interactive animated short.
Be sure to check out The Beat‘s interview with the film’s cast/crew. Also be sure to check out the New York Comic Con Batman: Death in the Family panel that was hosted last Saturday.
“Batman: Death in the Family,” WBHE’s first-ever venture into interactive storytelling, allows fans to choose where the story goes through an innovative navigation guided by the viewer’s remote control. “Batman: A Death in the Family” is the centerpiece of this anthology of five animated shorts inspired by characters and stories from DC’s robust portfolio. The 2019-2020 series of shorts – which have been individually included on DC Universe Movies releases since Summer 2019 – include:
– Death
– The Phantom Stranger
The Blu-ray features a Blu-ray disc with all of the shorts in hi-definition, including the fully-interactive, extended-length Batman: Death in the Family, plus a digital version of the four other 2019-2020 DC Showcase shorts. The Digital distribution features the “Batman: Death in the Family” extended-length short in a non-interactive format (pre-assembled version of the story, entitled “Under the Red Hood: Reloaded”), along with the other four 2019-2020 DC Showcase shorts, and three other non-interactive versions of the “Batman: Death in the Family” (entitled “Jason Todd’s Rebellion,” “Robin’s Revenge” and “Red Hood’s Reckoning”) as bonus features (Note: not all Digital retailers offer bonus features with purchase). The Blu-ray also offers approximately five minutes of additional content within the “Batman: Death in the Family” story that is not included in the Digital version.
