The Wolf Among Us Remastered has a firm launch date. Telltale Games and co-publisher PM Studios have confirmed the definitive edition of Bigby Wolf’s first case arrives on October 29, 2026, landing just before Halloween. The remaster brings all five episodes of the original noir thriller to modern hardware with reworked visuals and a set of bonus extras.
Quick answer: The Wolf Among Us Remastered releases on October 29, 2026 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
Release status: Confirmed for October 29, 2026
The date is locked in. There is no separate early-access or staggered episodic rollout this time. All five chapters ship together on launch day. A specific unlock time and time zone have not been shared, so plan around the October 29 release date rather than a fixed clock.
The original game first appeared as an episodic release running from 2013 into 2014. This remaster packages that complete story into a single release rebuilt for current platforms.

What the remaster includes
You play as Bigby Wolf, the sheriff of Fabletown, where fairy-tale characters live in secret among ordinary people. A brutal murder opens an investigation that pulls back the surface of the city to reveal something darker underneath. Your choices shape relationships, dialogue, and how the citizens of Fabletown come to trust or fear Bigby.
The full story spans five episodes:
- Episode 1: Faith
- Episode 2: Smoke and Mirrors
- Episode 3: A Crooked Mile
- Episode 4: In Sheep’s Clothing
- Episode 5: Cry Wolf
Technical upgrades
Telltale has reworked the presentation while keeping the original story intact. The changes are concrete rather than cosmetic touch-ups.
- Upgraded textures, lighting, and revamped animation
- Refined character models and environments
- Updated user interface and improved accessibility options
- Higher resolution with 4K support, plus frame rate improvements
- Audio enhancements
Noir Mode
A new Noir Mode lets you play the entire game in black and white. It applies a monochrome filter across the whole adventure, leaning into the neon-noir tone the original was known for.
Bonus content
The release adds more than an hour of extra material covering how the game was made. That includes behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, deleted scenes, developer commentary, and concept art.
How it fits with The Wolf Among Us 2
The remaster works as a way to catch up before the sequel. The Wolf Among Us 2 is set to launch in 2027, and playing the original beforehand gives you the full context for Bigby’s story. A precise release date for the sequel has not been confirmed, only that 2027 window.
For now, the October 29 launch is the near-term event to watch. If you have never set foot in Fabletown, the remaster is positioned as the complete way to experience the game before its follow-up arrives.
