August 29th, 2019: Telltale Games 2.0 Fireside Chat

December 12th, 2019:

December 17th, 2019:

Batman Shadows Edition - A Telltale Bundle released on Xbox One and Steam.

December 21st, 2019: We are creating the stories episodically, but how they will be released is still to be determined. I think the important distinction here is that we will no longer be developing episodically. If we do release the game in episodes, all of them will be ready before the first one hits the store

  • The Fireside Chat is mostly stuff we already know.

    "We would love to bring back everyone who wants to come but that just isn’t the economic reality of the games industry and it would be irresponsible of us to do so.”

    They've hired and contracted a mix of former Telltale employees, with most of them being contracted for the moment and that rehiring everyone who might want to come back as unrealistic which is understandable.

    The Wolf Among Us 2 is on their shortlist of projects to hopefully work on.

  • They might get a new IP for their games, No Idea what it would be. because didn't netflix give the developers of Dead By daylight the IP for stranger things temporarily?

  • That was for their Stranger Things DLC which has a couple of the characters from the show as survivors and the Demogorgon as a new killer.

  • exactly. Do you think they'll maintain the IP for it?

  • Not how it works, just because one game has the Stranger Things license doesnt mean no other game studio is able to obtain it as well.

  • Well then, there's hope for this game!

  • There's hope for a game in the future but that old stuff is abandoned ware at this point. I doubt they can just take those assets and start from where they left off.

  • I think that they would have to do some legal work and they'd have to get the people who worked on stranger things to go back to telltale.

  • Well, not necessarily an original game, just a new IP Telltale hasn't worked with before.

  • If it's going to be released before twau s2 I doubt it'll get the recognition it needs since it's relatively a new start to a somewhat new company/people doubt this company atm.
