The Wolf Among Us was released over a decade ago, and a sequel was announced in 2019. Initially due for release in 2023, The Wolf Among Us 2 was delayed as the team wanted to move from Unreal Engine 4 to the more advanced UE5.
As the future of the sequel looked uncertain, Telltale Games confirmed in a recent community post that the game is still in development. The developer told fans that there hasn’t been any news because the team is focusing on the game. The post read,
“We’ve been quiet because we’ve been heads down, focusing on the promise of #TWAU2.”
While Telltale did not share any further details, it did guarantee The Fabletown gang’s return and treated fans to 4 new in-game images, showing the game in all its UE5 glory.
The images were also shared last night by The Game Awards host Geoff Keighley on X, who confirmed the game is “now in production”.
Telltale Games was shut down in 2018 and reopened in 2019 under a new management, after which it announced The Wolf Among us sequel. When the game was delayed in 2023, the studio had promised a 2024 launch. However, the new development update doesn’t clarify whether the game is on track for release this year.
Since it was first announced at The Game Awards and the new images were shared by Geoff himself, my bet is that we’ll see the first glimpse at the next TGA. But we’ll have to wait until the next official statement for a more concrete release/announcement window.
