A mainstay of our adventure games lists, The Wolf Among Us 2 should finally materialize in 2024. The game was, after all, announced to be back in development in late 2019. Telltale said it would launch in 2023, but it was ultimately delayed to this year to avoid crunch and switch to Unreal Engine 5. It'll be interesting to see whether the developers make use of any of the engine's trademark features, like Lumen or Nanite. Regardless, fans of the award-winning original have been waiting a decade for this sequel, which will be set just six months after the previous season. The protagonist, Bigby Wolf, will be suspended from the role of sheriff and forced to attend anger management therapy sessions.

This new adventure game from Annapurna Interactive features performances from high-profile actresses like Keri Russell (The Americans, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker, The Diplomat) and Kaitlyn Dever (Justified, Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, Booksmart, Unbelievable, No One Will Save You, and The Last of Us Season 2 as Abby).

They'll play Tess Devine and her mother, Opal, who venture on a road trip to discover long-lost family secrets and possibly a treasure. Of course, their own relationship is also a major focus of the game, which promises a 'unique and engaging' interactive dialogue
