At San Diego Comic-Con 2026, Amazon and Warner Bros. made a significant announcement that will delight fans of the Caped Crusader. The companies are teaming up to release Batman: Caped Crusader – Chronicles, a new Batman video game exclusive to Amazon Prime, set to launch on July 31 alongside Batman: Caped Crusader Season 2.
The game and the new season of the animated show will be available for Amazon Prime members at no additional cost. This move is part of Amazon Luna’s expansion into Prime Video, which was launched today ahead of the Batman: Caped Crusader Season 2 panel at the convention.
A Cooperative Crime-Solving Party Game
Batman: Caped Crusader – Chronicles is a cooperative crime-solving party game designed for up to four players. The idea behind the game is to create an immersive experience where players can engage with the world of Batman: Caped Crusader in a unique way. The game will be available for download on the Luna app in the U.S., UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Austria, the Netherlands, Poland, Sweden, Portugal, Belgium, and Luxembourg.
In Batman: Caped Crusader – Chronicles, players will take on the roles of detectives, stepping into the dark, noir-soaked streets of Gotham City to become part of a special GCPD task force and Batman’s inner circle. Alongside Detective Montoya, players will interrogate, investigate, and deduce their way through 11 episodic missions, each featuring a distinct sleuthing minigame that tests their detective skills.
The game will feature a range of iconic villains from the Batman universe, including Babyface, Scarecrow, Dollmaker, and even The Joker. The game’s narrative will be deeply connected to the events of Batman: Caped Crusader Season 2, offering a unique and engaging experience for fans of the show.
The game’s voice cast includes Hamish Linklater as Batman and Michelle C. Bonilla as Detective Montoya, reprising their roles from the series. Additional voice talent will be announced ahead of the game’s July 31 launch.
A Casual Gaming Experience

The success of Batman: Caped Crusader – Chronicles is a significant move for Amazon Luna, which is looking to expand its presence in the gaming market. The game’s release is a key part of this strategy, offering a unique and engaging experience that will help to attract new users to the platform.
As part of the game’s announcement, Amazon also revealed that Rocksteady, the developers behind the highly acclaimed Batman Arkham series, are reportedly working on another single-player Batman game.
