The Wolf Among Us 2 is scheduled to launch in 2027 after a decade of development setbacks and delays, nearly 10 years after it was first announced in 2017 by Telltale Games [1, 2, 3, 4].

The original The Wolf Among Us game, released in 2013, will receive a remastered edition during the 2026 holiday season. This updated version will feature enhanced visuals, an improved user interface, accessibility upgrades, and an hour of bonus content including deleted scenes and interviews [1, 2, 3, 4] [2].

The sequel continues the story following the original game’s events. It focuses on Bigby Wolf investigating a violent crime wave threatening Fabletown, a city where fairytale characters live hidden among humans. The official game description states Bigby is drawn into a “dangerous conspiracy” that tests his role as sheriff and the fragile peace Snow White tries to maintain [2, 4].

The Wolf Among Us 2 will launch on multiple platforms including PC via Steam and Epic, PlayStation 4 and 5, Nintendo Switch and its successor, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S [2].

Development of the sequel faced multiple delays due to the closure of Telltale Games in 2018. Production restarted after Telltale’s revival in 2019, including co-development with AdHoc Studio, a team founded by original Wolf Among Us developers. However, AdHoc Studio parted ways with the project before 2026, after the game switched its engine to Unreal Engine 5 [1, 2, 3, 4].

Key milestones in the timeline include the 2017 announcement of The Wolf Among Us 2; Telltale’s closure in 2018 halting development; revival and co-development with AdHoc Studio in 2019; and the 2023 split with AdHoc Studio and engine switch [1, 2, 3, 4].

The original game first released in 2013, making the sequel’s arrival in 2027 13 years later. The sequel’s production has effectively spanned 10 years since its initial announcement, complicated by studio troubles and technical transitions [1, 2, 3].

The Wolf Among Us Remastered is expected to launch during the 2026 holiday season, with fans awaiting the 2027 arrival of the sequel to continue the narrative adventures of Bigby Wolf and the secrets of Fabletown [1, 2, 3, 4].
