The game will look and feel like a “Telltale game.” There will be incremental changes and improvements that come with the new technology platform, and we have some interesting gameplay elements in mind. Ottilie: We felt it important that the first game from the “new” Telltale be presented in a style similar to the original games.

Newman: Will this game feel the same as the first, or are you making changes? We will be opening positions in both Malibu and Corte Madera next year And it’s likely that we will add other key contributors as we ramp up the team. The first priority was really on the writers and cinematic directors for the game, as we wanted this to be a true sequel – built by the same visionaries as the original. Ottilie: We felt it was important to bring back the creative leadership on the title. Newman: How did you choose who you'd reach out to, to return to work on this project? It is being written episodically, but it hasn’t been confirmed it will be released that way.Some parts of it take place in Fabletown, and there will be a focus on Bigby and Snow.

It’ll have five episodes, and is a prequel set 20 years before the comic books but after the original narrative game.

It’s based on Bill Willingham’s Fables DC comic book series from DC.

Those employees include directors Nick Herman and Dennis Lenart, writer Pierre Shorette, voice actors Adam Harrington (Bigby Wolf) and Erin Yvette (Snow White) and composer Jared Emerson-Johnson.

Telltale is producing the game in partnership with AdHoc Studios, a development group with a number of ex-original-Telltale employees.

Interactive Entertainment on behalf of DC. To celebrate, the original Wolf Among Us is free on the Epic service for a week, starting today.

It’s an Epic Games store exclusive for PC only, and will be on consoles.
