The news that development was resuming on The Wolf Among Us 2 came during the Game Awards 2019. While the old Telltale Games used a proprietary engine in all its games, the new Telltale is opting for Epic's Unreal Engine. The Wolf Among Us 2 is currently in full production, though there's no new release date at this time.

Ottilie also touched on The Expanse Telltale series, which was announced during the Game Awards 2021. The Expanse is being co-developed with Deck Nine Games, and as for the setting, it'll be a prequel to the series currently available on Amazon Prime. In the game, players take on the role of Drummer, a Belter working about a ship called The Artemis.

Like The Wolf Among Us 2, The Expanse: A Telltale Series does not currently have a release date.
