During Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest 2026 presentation, Telltale Games fans were treated to not one, but two big announcements surrounding the highly anticipated episodic series, The wolf among us. Not only is the second season finally coming in 2027, appropriately titledThe Wolf Among Us 2,' but for those who have yet to play the first five episodes (or just want to relive the story to catch up), Season 1 will be getting a remaster sometime this holiday season for all major platforms, including the Nintendo Switch 1 and 2.

The 30 Best Story Games, Ranked
The best Telltale Games titles provide players with thought-provoking stories and interactive excellence that few other developers can match.
Originally announced in 2017 by Telltale Games and AdHoc Studio, The Wolf Among Us 2 was supposed to be released well before 2027, but due to creative differences and Telltale's closure, the project was initially shelved. Once Telltale Games was picked up by LCG Entertainment, the title was revealed again in 2019 as being in active development.
With an Opencritic score across all its episodes maintaining a strong 80 average, The wolf among us was hailed not only as one of the most distinctive stories Telltale has told in video game format, but also as one of the best written stories from the studio. It is worth mentioning The wolf among us is based on the comic series Fables and has charactersmost people would be familiar with classic Disney films, such as Snow White and Belle.
The Wolf Among Us 2 trailer
While fans of The wolf among us will have to wait a while to play the sequel, the remastered version of the first season will be available sometime this weekend (no release date has been set). That means it could arrive in December or even launch in February 2027. We'll most likely hear more details at Geoff Keighley's big Game Awards presentation (or hopefully sometime before then).
As for what the remaster changes, it will include improved graphics, lighting, character animations, user interface, accessibility improvements, higher frame rates, and many more neat touches to bring it into the modern era. There will also be some goodies for the die-hard fans, such as behind-the-scenes bonus footage featuring the cast, photo galleries and scenes that were originally left out of the original release.
The Wolf Among Us Remaster and The Wolf Among Us 2 will launch for PS5, PC, Switch, Switch 2 and Xbox Series X and S.
