Telltale Games Announces New Seasons for Batman, The Walking Dead, and The Wolf Among Us
Telltale Games recently released a video entitled “Telltale Games: Summer 2017 Update” in which they revealed their plans for the continuation of three of their popular series. These three games, Batman, The Walking Dead, and The Wolf Among Us will be getting a season 2, 4, and another 2 respectively.
*Warning! Mild spoilers for previous seasons of each game follow*
Starting with Batman: The Enemy Within, there is a brief trailer for events to come. This is followed by a series of cast interviews about what they tried in season 1 and where they’re going now. The trailer seems to pick up not too long after the finale of season 1, which set up the Joker being the next main antagonist. This trailer further confirms his role in the upcoming season and gives us new details about “friends” that he’s made. The only villain besides Joker that was directly referenced in the trailer is the Riddler, who will be making his debut next season. Premiering this August, Telltale promises that The Enemy Within is taking what worked in season 1 and ramping it up to new levels this season.
Next, we have The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series – The Final Season. This one doesn’t have a trailer per se but we do get a good amount of information from interviews with the team behind it. Since it is now confirmed that this fourth season of the Telltale adaptation of Robert Kirkman’s hit comics is where the story ends, these interviews focused on the journey so far. Every comment focused on Clementine and her importance to the story overall. In Season One, Clementine existed as a means for hope for the player and as a kind of moral compass. In Season Two, we get to fully explore the world of The Walking Dead through her eyes as she tries to understand the meaning of family. The New Frontier sees a grizzled and older Clementine who is burned by the events of previous seasons but eventually does find a family and things work out. The Final Season is confirmed to be about her continued search for AJ and what happens from there and will be releasing in 2018.
Finally, we have The Wolf Among Us Season 2. Once again, there isn’t so much a trailer but a series of Telltale interviews, probably due to the release date being in 2018 as well. This time, however, the team is reading off a series of “mean Tweets” about fans desiring the new season of The Wolf Among Us. Don’t worry fans, Telltale has definitely noticed you want another season. From there, it turns into the same kind of interview the last two games had, discussing the story, characters, the world, etc. They mainly focus on the “neon” aesthetic of the world and how it lends to such great detective stories. They also get into the psyche of characters like Wolf and Snow and give us small hints about where they’re going from here, such as Wolf is a kind of rebel.
Summer Update:
Helldivers 2 proved to be a surprising success, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the gaming industry. As per Circana analyst Mat Piscatella, it currently ranks as Sony’s seventh highest grossing game in the United States to date, trailing behind a trio of Spider-Man titles, a couple of God of War games, and Ghost of Tsushima. It’s only been on the market for less than three months and is not even being sold at full price.
According to Piscatella, a significant factor contributing to the game’s success is its release on PC. He mentioned that, based on Circana’s Player Engagement Tracker, the game has consistently ranked first in terms of active users on Steam in the US since its launch, including April. The release of Helldivers 2 on both PlayStation and PC has been an extraordinary triumph.
He stated that Helldivers 2 has already become the seventh highest-grossing Sony-published game in history. Without a PC, it would not currently be considered one of the top 20 games. While I’m emphasizing the success of the PC SKU, it’s important to note that I’m not disregarding the success of the PlayStation SKU. I just wanted to clarify that. This launch has proven to be incredibly successful.
Prior to the release of Helldivers 2, Sony made it clear that they would be launching their live service-style titles simultaneously on both the PS5 and PC. The success of this approach will undoubtedly strengthen their strategic vision. It will be intriguing to witness if the company reveals official sales figures in the near future, as the title appears to be one of the platform holder’s most successful sellers to date.

The developer of Stellar Blade for the PS5 Expressing gratitude to the fans for their unwavering support amidst a recent controversy surrounding censorship
Shift Up, the Korean developer, seems to be reconsidering its contentious alterations to the Stellar Blade outfit. In a message to fans, they have urged everyone to stay tuned for updates and expressed gratitude for the passionate feedback from players. For those who may not be aware, a petition gained significant attention over the weekend when gamers discovered changes made to a few of the game’s costumes through a day-one patch.
The launch day update includes a fantastic New Game + mode, but some players were disappointed by the changes made to protagonist Eve’s outfit. These alterations sparked debates about censorship. Director Hyung-Tae Kim later clarified that this was the studio’s original vision, but he acknowledged that it may require further persuasion to win over users. Internal discussions were also underway to address any concerns.
Thanks to all our Stellar Blade fans for your passion & feedback. Stay tuned for updates🤍 pic.twitter.com/jCRzM4OQBS

There is no definitive confirmation regarding the reversal of the outfits, but considering the language used in the statement and the widespread controversy surrounding the alterations, it is highly likely that a future patch will restore the original costumes. If you want to get a sneak peek at all of Eve’s different outfits and learn how to unlock them, be sure to take a look at our comprehensive guide, All Outfits and How to Get Them.
It’s quite possible. Fans all over the world are interested in Shift Up’s highly anticipated action-adventure game, Stellar Blade. With its captivating post-apocalyptic setting reminiscent of Nier and a compelling protagonist named Eve, it’s no wonder the game has generated such widespread attention.
The game consistently impresses with its stunning visuals and high-octane action, leaving players in awe with each new trailer.
Yet, just like other noteworthy second-party and third-party game releases, fans are pondering: Will Stellar Blade be available on PC?
In this article, we delve into the details to determine the platform availability of the highly anticipated title.
Will Stellar Blade be available on PC? Allow me to provide you with the answer.
Unfortunately, Stellar Blade will not be available on PC, at least not initially. Currently, the game is only available on PlayStation 5 starting on April 26, 2024.
Regrettably, it appears that there is no indication of a potential PC release for Stellar Blade in the future. In most cases, trailers for PlayStation timed-exclusive titles conclude with a disclaimer that specifies the duration of their exclusivity.
In the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth launch trailer, it is explicitly stated that the game will only be accessible on other platforms starting on May 29, 2024.
Regrettably, when it comes to the stellar blade, there is no indication of such.
It’s important to note that Sony Entertainment Interactive published Stellar Blade, unlike Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. This means that the chances of it being released on PC or other platforms in the near future are even slimmer.
However, it is worth noting that there is a chance the game might be released on PC in the future, given PlayStation’s track record of bringing their exclusive titles to the platform. However, it could be a while before this comes to fruition.
