Batman Beyond Story
Batman Beyond is basically a sequel to Batman The Animated Series. It features Terry McGinnis who is a 16 Y/O athletic boy. He is tutored by a ‘Deteriorating Batman’. As Bruce has grown old and cannot handle crime even with his finest of suits.
All other allies of Batman have been either killed or have died. Thus, Terry McGinnis becomes ‘Batman Beyond’. Similar to Batsy-Joker duo, Terry’s greatest foe is Blight.
Batman Beyond established the endpoint in DC animated series. Thus all upcoming and other animated shows remain a prequel. This series held 52 episodes.

However, the remastering is not complete, only 41 of 52 episodes are remastered. To analyse the difference between remastering and old-view, IGN created a youtube video giving us a side by side comparison.
Batsy is the most famous superhero for now. He is also the most formidable hero in all superhero verse. Thus a remastered version of the classic is a treat to fans.
Price and Release Date
The price of the animated series is $50. The remastered series is set to release on 15th October 2019 (Digital Launch) and the Blu-Ray version will follow up on 29th October. Also, the Season 1 will be available for the subscribers to DC Universe Streaming service.
