The first episode of Telltale game’s latest series based on Mark Willinghams’ s Fable’s comic series, will be available this friday on Steam and XBLA, with a PSN release due a couple of days later.
Much like the Walking Dead, The Wolf Among Us will serve as a prequel to the book it is based on, as players take on the role of Bigby Wolf, AKA the Big Bad Wolf. Who works as the sherif for a gated community of fairytale creatures in New York known as Fabletown, populated by refugees from various folk and fairy tales who were forced to leave their homelands after a dark force known as the adversary conquered their lands.
Bigby is tasked by the leader of the community, the Beaurocratic Snow White, to keep the peace and make sure that Fabletown remains hidden from the human population of New York.
The Wolf Among Us Episode 1 – Faith, will be out this Friday on XBLA and Steam priced £3.99/ $4.9.
