Season 3 Predictions
As a fan of Telltale's take on Batman, I thought I would try and offer suggestions for a potential season 3. These are opinion based and subjective, so do with them what you will.
Tiffany will (probably) be the new Lucius Fox. This isn't necessarily a prediction for Season 3, but rather for the rest of Season 2. It's pretty obvious that Telltale wants players to consider inviting Tiffany as an ally later on down the road and having a young girl responsible for the new gadgets and the Batcave would be a fresh new take on the mythos surrounding Batman's allies. Again, this is not supposed to be a big prediction though.
Robin or Batgirl should be introduced. A major aspect of Batman is his roster of allies, his most famous ones being Robin and Batgirl. Considering that Tiffany Fox was Batgirl at one point in New 52 continuity, it wouldn't surprise me if Telltale decided to take inspiration from that and make Tiffany a version of Batgirl. Or perhaps they will find a way to work in Dick Grayson in their universe, either making him Robin or at the very least setting him up to become Robin in the future.
The League of Shadows can be involved. One element of Batman we have not seen yet is Bruce Wayne becoming Batman. Season 3 could bring focus to that part of Bruce's life by maybe having the League of Shadows arrive to take Gotham for their own. With flashbacks to Bruce's training days, we could get an insight into a pre-Batman Bruce and maybe make choices that affect how we see Bruce similar to the flashbacks in GOTG. Perhaps top it off with either having Ra's Al' Ghul, Talia Al' Ghul, or both be the main villain of Season 3.
Maybe we'll get a brand new villain. One of the most intriguing elements from the first season of Batman was the introduction of Lady Arkham, a villain that as far as I'm aware, never appeared in the comics before. It was a fresh element with an interesting twist that was fun to watch and fascinating to learn about. I feel that if Telltale were to keep their Batman fresh, they should try to integrate another original villain into the series. Maybe they could create a new villain that ties into the League of Shadows idea mentioned previously.
Any predictions/suggestions of your own? Where do you want to see Telltale take Batman next? List them in your replies.

Season 3 would be like batman begins origins then?
Doubt we will get a season 3, I love the series...but sales are bad.
Yeah, but I also didn't expect a Season 2 at all based on the moderate success of Season 1, so here's hoping.
Introducing Robin and extending the Batfamily would be a good move, letting players shape Batman and Robin's relationship. I also would like to see Batman's more supernatural villains like Poison Ivy/Manbat/Killer Croc but with a Telltale spin. Really hope we get a season 3 as this season has been a drastic improvement.
