"Batman: The Telltale Series" has seen its fair share of criticism since it launched. However, reviews have become more positive with the release of each new episode. Episode 4, titled "Guardian of Gotham," has now been confirmed to launch on Tuesday, Nov. 22, and it will be the penultimate episode of the series.

As stated in a report from Eurogamer, the episode will play out differently depending on how gamers went through Episode 3, "New World Order." This will apply particularly to Harvey Dent as he may or may not have transformed into the villainous Two-Face. Decisions from Episode 3 will also affect plotlines with the likes of Catwoman.

Episode 4, as shown in the official trailer, will see Bruce Wayne imprisoned in Arkham Asylum where he'll spend some time with the Joker. It is stated in the trailer that this was all Vicki Vale's plan so that Bruce would experience the pain brought by the crimes of his father.

While he is stuck inside, the streets of Gotham plunge into chaos. The longer Batman is not around to put things back in order, the longer the problem will exist and more trouble will occur. One of the main goals of the player is to forge alliances to break out and getting help to put Gotham back into order.

It is unlikely that he'll be in Arkham Asylum for long as the trailer also showcases him as Batman, confronting Harvey Dent on a rooftop. The former District Attorney and Gotham City Mayor now appears completely insane and states he understands what is wrong with the city.

One small snippet in the trailer also showcases armed men, who may possibly be policemen, storming into Wayne Manor. Alfred is shown confronting them, armed with a sub-machine gun. It is widely speculated this is the moment when Wayne is arrested or when the chaos on the streets reaches Wayne's home.

"Batman: The Telltale Series Episode 4" will launch on Nov. 22.
