The Wolf Among Us 2 is an upcoming episodic adventure game developed by Telltale Games and AdHoc Studio based on Fables by Bill Willingham.
It will be released in 2023 for Windows and video game consoles.
Gameplay
The game features Bigby, Fables' big bad wolf, and is a choices-and-consequences game where you decide whether Bigby protects the people you're with or if he gives in to his wolf side.
Development
It was set to premiere in late 2018, but in June 2018 it was moved back to 2019, due to a restructure in the Telltale studio due to layoffs and the intent to improve the toxic atmosphere that had been present due to the unexpected success of the first season of The Walking Dead.
However, in September 2018, all of Telltale's investors pulled out of investment in the company. On September 21, 2018, Telltale announced a majority studio closure, laying off 250 employees with a staff of 25 staying on to fulfill contractual obligations to their board and to their partners. The Wolf Among Us 2 was cancelled as a result of the majority studio closure.
On August 28, 2019, LCG Entertainment announced that they had purchased Telltale and the rights to some of their games. In December 2019, The Wolf Among Us 2 was reannounced. It will be developed by Telltale in conjunction with AdHoc Studio, a video game developer formed by Telltale veterans.
