The Wolf Among Us 2 is a sequel to 2013’s narrative-adventure game by Telltale Games. The sequel was formally announced in 2017, but Telltale Games closed in 201,8 effectively canceling the project. However, LCG Entertainment revived Telltale Games and acquired the rights to games like The Wolf Among Us, paving the way for a sequel.
The sequel was re-announced in 2019 at The Game Awards and will pick up after the events of the first game. Adam Harrington and Erin Yvette are set to reprise their roles as Bigby Wolf and Snow White respectively.
The Wolf Among Us is based on the comic series Fables which reimagines classic fairy tales characters who now live in the gritty Fabletown. While these characters are aware of their previous lives as fairy tale characters, they must now scrape by on the hard streets of a more modern and realistic world.
Bigby is a version of the Big Bad Wolf, while Snow White is of course the eponymous heroine of her own story.
