What was revealed in an interview?

Even though he has more of a stealth focus and a bit more of a focus in terms of how he’s using his gadgets and using the tricks and detective intuition that he has, we still wanted a Robin that could credibly go through a full evolutionary arc that would end with him being the new Dark Knight of Gotham City.”
When it will release?
The trailer launched at DC FanDome discovered that Bruce Wayne is dead. Logic shows that a person among his faithful sidekicks will soak up cape and cover quickly enough. In the comics, Tim has already assumed the Batman mantle twice.
