It turned out that those alleged retailer listings for The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us from Telltale Games were rather significant in predicting the next onslaught of releases. Both titles will be making their way unto the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One at an unknown date; but the vigor inlaid within the debate of whether or not all seasons of the accessible games in question will allude to Telltale Games’ thoughts on creating their Game of Thrones and Tales from the Borderlands collaboration for next-gen consoles. Various sources seem to believe that this is a step in the right direction for Telltale Games, not to mention the abrupt move has rekindled an assumption to expect preceding and future titles on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
The release date has not been set by Telltale Games on their official announcement, however the staff has lead multiple fans to secure a digital or physical copy at their local retailer. Ironic that the thought of pre-ordering the game is also the source that sparked the debate months prior of ‘whether or not’ Telltale Games would be bringing their franchise to next-gen consoles. Keep in mind that this reveal does not account for an up-front guarantee that the producers over at Telltale Games are preparing to release their next arrangement of planned games onto the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One. Even though it seems to be quite the sound bet at the moment, that could change at a moment’s notice.
As for details on the release; Telltale Games confirmed that The Walking Dead will be separated into Season One and Season Two. The DLC for The Walking Dead: 400 Days will be attached to The Walking Dead Season One, and the Walking Dead Season Two will retain its own standing with all imminent chapters and DLC that might become accessible in the near future. While it might be a little discouraging not to get the entire dual seasons in a bundle, the separation was not unexpected due to how Telltale Games released both games on multiple platforms. It follows their general pattern, so to speak; thus one can expect that from their upcoming releases and plans to broaden their horizons from numerous angles.
