1* ActorAllusion:
2** [[VideoGame/{{Catherine}} This isn't the first time Troy Baker and Laura Bailey have been]] [[ShipTease Ship Teased.]]
3** [[VideoGame/InfamousSecondSon Nor is it the second]].
4** This isn't [[WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra the first time]] that Steve Blum has voiced the leader of a revolution in a corrupt city either, nor the [[WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan first time]] he's voiced the secret identity of a masked villain.
5* BeamMeUpScotty:[[spoiler: Alfred is accused of forcing a sadistic choice on Bruce on whether to remain Batman or retire so Alfred will stay, despite the fact Alfred never actually makes Bruce choose. The closest Alfred actually gets to actually doing that is merely mentioning that Bruce can do good in other ways besides being Batman and even mentions he believes that Bruce would never give up the crusade. It's BRUCE himself who makes this decision and if he gives up being Batman, Alfred himself will be surprised at what Bruce is considering.]]
6* FakeNationality: [[RoleReprise Once again]], we have French-British Creator/JBBlanc voicing South American Bane.
7* MemeAcknowledgement: The [Grapple Away] choice from the first season reappears in ''The Enemy Within'', mostly because the developers [[https://twitter.com/WoolieWoolz/status/1112028718019436545 noticed]] how much it amused Matt and Woolie from WebVideo/TwoBestFriendsPlay.
8* TheOtherDarrin: Renee Montoya's voice actress changed from Krizia Bajos to Creator/SumaleeMontano in season two.
9* PlayingAgainstType: Erin Yvette has made a name for herself in playing heroic female characters in adventure games, such as Snow White in ''VideoGame/TheWolfAmongUs'', Sasha from ''VideoGame/TalesFromTheBorderlands'', and Alex in ''VideoGame/{{Oxenfree}}''. [[spoiler:This makes her reveal as the psychopathic BigBad Lady Arkham sting even more.]]
10* ProductionPosse: Standard operating procedure for Telltale. The leading trio from ''VideoGame/TalesFromTheBorderlands'', Rhys (Troy Baker), Fiona (Laura Bailey) and Sasha (Erin Yvette), return as Batman, Catwoman and Vicki Vale, respectively. In fact, Erin Yvette has worked with Telltale for a long time, previously as Snow White in ''VideoGame/TheWolfAmongUs'' and Bonnie in ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead''.
11* PromotedFanboy: As Anthony Ingruber reveals in a Season 2 featurette, though he was already an established voice actor, his impressions of Heath Ledger and Mark Hamill's Jokers on [=YouTube=] were what prompted Telltale to cast him and encourage him to put his own spin on the character.
12* RealLifeRelative: [[Creator/TravisWillingham Harvey Dent]] and [[Creator/LauraBailey Selina Kyle/Catwoman]]'s voice actors are also a married couple in real life. Bruce's voice actor (Troy Baker) is Willingham's best friend, and was their Best Man at the wedding.
13* RoleReprise:
14** From the ''VideoGame/LEGOBatman'' games: Creator/TroyBaker as the Dark Knight himself and Creator/LauraBailey as Catwoman.
15** From the ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamSeries'': Creator/DaveFennoy as Lucius Fox and Creator/JBBlanc as Bane.
16* ScheduleSlip: The release on [[Platform/PlayStation3 Seventh]] [[Platform/Xbox360 Generation]] consoles was delayed to a tentative "Later in August", after Episode 1 came out on August 2nd for PC and [[Platform/PlayStation4 Eighth]] [[Platform/XboxOne Generation]] consoles. The episode failed to arrive on the Seventh Generation consoles before September 14th, the same day as the release of the final episode of ''VideoGame/MinecraftStoryMode''.
17* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
18** According to Kent Mudle on his Tumblr, Iman Avesta was originally going to be a romantic interest -- as indicated by her blatant crush on Batman. However, this was ultimately scrapped.
19** Some [[http://armanddacuba.squarespace.com/telltale/c5q18zg3lxhnjv7btuigyc0c8lr3mx concept art]] suggest Deadshot was considered to appear in ''The Enemy Within'' at one point, but the design was later used for his appearance in the comic ''Sins of the Father''.
20* WordOfGay: Kent Mudle [[https://kmudle.tumblr.com/post/180734796446/i-dont-know-if-you-can-answer-this-and-its confirmed]] on his tumblr page that John is bisexual and interested in both Harley and Bruce (with a slight preference for Bruce). He says John would be thrilled if he could convince both of them to have some sort of three-way relationship.
