The Long-Awaited Return of The Wolf Among Us 2: What We Know So Far

After a long hiatus, The Wolf Among Us 2 is finally “now in production” at Telltale, as confirmed by Geoff Keighley. The announcement came five years after the game was initially announced, bringing excitement to fans who have been eagerly waiting for its return. Keighley shared four new screenshots showcasing Telltale’s signature graphic novel-style art, depicting series protagonist Bigby navigating through Fabletown and investigating a crime scene.

The journey to the sequel of the 2013 adventure game began in 2019 when Telltale unveiled its plans at The Game Awards. Despite a reveal event in 2022, the lack of updates left fans wondering about the status of the game. However, Keighley’s recent post on social media shed light on the progress of the project, albeit with some confusion regarding the timeline. Telltale had initially announced starting work on the game in 2020, but due to a switch to Unreal Engine 5, the release was delayed to an unspecified date.

Concerns arose when Telltale underwent layoffs in 2023, raising doubts about the fate of The Wolf Among Us 2. The studio responded by assuring fans that all projects in development were still active, including the highly anticipated sequel. With Life is Strange: True Colors studio Deck Nine also involved in the pre-production process, Telltale made it clear that the game was progressing despite any setbacks. The recent statement to IGN reiterated that the sequel “remains in production internally,” hinting at a promising future for the beloved franchise.

As fans eagerly await updates on Bigby and the enchanting world of Fabletown, the release of new screenshots has rekindled excitement for the upcoming sequel. With Telltale’s commitment to bringing the game to fruition and the dedication of the development team, there is hope for a successful return to The Wolf Among Us universe. As details continue to emerge, followers of the series can look forward to revisiting old characters and uncovering new mysteries in a narrative-driven adventure like no other.
