After so many of us believed the game was dead and forgotten on some derelict PC in Telltale’s storage rooms, The Wolf Among Us 2 finally has an official release date. The game is not cancelled or gone but slated for release in 2027, much like everything else we’ve seen so far at Summer Game Fest 2026.
The Wolf Among Us 2 was first announced back in 2019 with a brief teaser and again in 2022, but ever since then it’s been dead silence from Telltale Games, itself rocked by massive financial and internal issues that saw many of its projects cancelled or indefinitely delayed and a good chunk of its staff gone from the studio.
Many anticipated the game to be cancelled internally, with Telltale just not disclosing the information, but it appears it’s been in active development over the last four years and is finally going to come out in 2027.
The trailer didn’t reveal much about the game or the story, but we’re definitely following Bigby Wolf, the lycanthrope detective working to solve mysterious crimes and murders happening in Fabletown, a place in our own world where magical creatures from European folklore live under disguises.
In the meantime, we’ll also get a remaster of the original The Wolf Among Us game, originally released in 2013, or around 13 years ago to date. I replayed it last November after completing Dispatch, made by much of the same developers as the first The Wolf Among Us, and the game really holds up well today but can be a bit rough around the edges.
Either way, we’re finally certain that yes, The Wolf Among Us 2 is alive and well and almost ready to launch.
