Telltale revealed its first trailer and details for The Wolf Among Us 2: A Telltale Series. The sequel to the acclaimed title based on a DC comic book is coming in 2023. In a virtual event with The Game Awards host Geoff Keighley, the reborn Telltale headed by CEO Jamie Ottilie and developer Nick Herman talked about the much-anticipated game. The original Telltale Games title came out in 2013 and 2014 as an episodic series.
The trailer takes place at The Good Sleep Motel. It shows characters that are coming back (Bigby) as well as new ones (from The Wizard of Oz) joining what Telltale is calling Season 2. The original depicted a gritty detective noir world with fairy tale characters but no fairy tale endings and a lot of violence.
The Wolf Among Us has characters known as Fables, based on fairy tales, within a secret part of New York City dubbed Fabletown. The new game takes place six months after the events of Season One, and the Fables don’t behave as you expect them to.
“These characters subvert your idea of what they’re like,” said Herman, co-director of AdHoc Studio and director of the new game.
