Telltale Games, the developer of the critically acclaimed video game, The Wolf Among Us, announced that the release of the much-awaited sequel has been delayed out of 2023. This news has come as a great disappointment to the fans who have been eagerly waiting for the game's release.
The Wolf Among Us, based on Bill Willingham's comic book series, Fables, was first released in 2013. It received critical acclaim for its unique storytelling, stunning visuals, and engaging gameplay. The game's success led to the announcement of a sequel in 2019, much to the delight of the fans.
However, the development of The Wolf Among Us 2 has not been smooth sailing for Telltale Games. In 2018, the studio shut down due to financial difficulties, leading to the cancellation of several of its projects. Later that year, LCG Entertainment acquired the rights to the studio and its intellectual property and announced the revival of several of its popular games, including The Wolf Among Us 2.
Despite the studio's revival, the development of the game faced several setbacks. Telltale Games initially planned to release the game in 2021, but the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic forced the developers to adjust their timeline. In a recent statement, the studio announced that the game's development has been further delayed out of 2023.
Social media
The announcement has caused an uproar among the fans of the game, who have been eagerly waiting for its release. Many have taken to social media to express their disappointment and frustration. Some have expressed concerns that the game's delay may lead to its cancellation, as was the case with several other Telltale Games projects.
