A while back, Telltale Games announced the long-awaited return of The Wolf Among Us 2, following fears that the project may have been cancelled with the company’s previous closure. Alas, there is some bad news that goes along with that – we’ll have to wait a while to see what Bigby is up to.
The company confirmed in a tweet yesterday that The Wolf Among Us 2 won’t release this year.
But there’s a good reason for it – it’s trying to avoid the dreaded “crunch” that affects so many developers these days.
“We’ve made the difficult decision to delay The Wolf Among Us 2 out of 2023,” it explained. “We know, it’s frustrating to hear. We started work on this in 2020 and we’re still determined to tell the ongoing story of Bigby and the rest of the Fabletown gang. However, it is going to require more time. As disappointed as you are hearing this, we feel worse having to say it.
“But the work continues. We’re committed to delivering the sequel fans deserve and doing what’s right for the game while protecting the health of our team.
“We appreciate your patience and understanding,” they concluded.
It is disappointing for some. But the fact that the game is still coming is good news, and it should be worth the wait!
