Telltale Games has released new screenshots for its newest licensed adventure game series, The Wolf Among Us, which is based on the multiple award-winning Fables graphic novel series.
The plot, according to the press release, takes place ”prior to the events seen in the first issue of the FABLES comic book series,” putting gamers ”in the role of Bigby Wolf, a man once more infamously known as The Big Bad Wolf. Now the sheriff of a hidden community in New York City, exiled from the land of fairy tales, Bigby is tasked by the bureaucrat Snow White to keep order within a society of mythical creatures and characters trying to remain undetected in the world of the mundane. From a chain-smoking member of ‘The Three Little Pigs,’ to a car-stealing Mr. Toad itching for his next wild ride, The Wolf Among Us examines the lives of beings straight from the pages of myth and lore, now trying to survive on the meanest and most run-down streets of New York City.”
The Wolf Among Us will be released on PC, Mac OS, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, but Telltale Games also hints at ”additional platforms to be announced.” This probably indicates iOS, but it also leaves the door open for next-gen platforms as well.
