Season 2 release on track for fall 2013 (new info on page 8 / merged threads)

[LauriNicole]

Man, I sure hope there's an episode of S2 released before 2015.
I have horrible patience and when I get obsessed with something, I really get obsessed.
I've already started the cycle of:
"Play play play play play play play, nothing else to do, season 2 isn't out? Play it again!"
Repeat until I get tired of it, then I'll likely forget about it.

I'm fine with waiting until 2014, but 2015? Surely we can get at least one episode by then, right?

I've got a couple people in the industry who are saying mid 2013, as in, April-ish, but none that are all that close to Telltale, so it could just be speculation. Hoping for April 2013 all the same. I'm just glad they'll have a higher budget for it, since that'll (hopefully) mean more branching choices, better puzzles, and less technical issues. Only bad thing about the first season imho. Besides that, it's freaking amazing.

Plot holes, too. And not just little ones...one of the things that bothered me most was how at the end of episode 4, they make the group you go with out to be very, very important...but it turns out to be pretty much a short and unimportant decision. Littler things, like the walker reaching through the locked doggy door, are all over the place too. Inconsistencies and such.

Still a fantastic game, but the fact that there is room for improvement makes me giddy with excitement.

I'm even more obsessed than you! If I don't get Season 2 in 2013 I will eat my shoe!

There's an article on IGN from Feb. 2011 that states TTG has a "multi-year, multi-platform, multi-title deal". As far as I know the releases do not have to be in consecutive years.

there working on fables so late mid 2013 we'll get a trailer then 1st episode released later

Anyone who says they'll forget about the game if it doesn't come out in 2013 is either lying or unaware of their own patience. I mean, this is an episodic game, waiting is an integral part of the experience!

In any case, look at Valve. Their entire business model consists on delaying stuff until it's done, yet I haven't seen their fans lose interest in Half-Life 3! With that said, I want to ask Telltale not to take this example literally and take six years between episodes

actually:the wait for episode 2 from Ep.1 was nearly accurate (3 months later in the game, about 2 months of development)

[zev_zev]

Telltale was told that thay will start to make season 2, immediately after episode 5, not counting the Christmas holidays. Or it was a fake information?

[King Cam72]

I read on the wiki that its going to be around Q2 2013. So about the same time as Season 1 started.

doubt it there working on Fables right now sine that was supposed to be there 2012 game but was pushed back so thats next then season 2 whic will be late 2013

[Nick-mas]

It might not be out next year. They were working on a release for a different game they had created. I think season 2 may be pushed back until 2014 or at the very least be released at the end of 2013.

[ZacTB]

I reckon they have been working on it for a while. I think mid to late 2013 seems about right.

Well let's bloody hope so...

[chiefzackery]

Who the fuck cares about fables Im getting into telltale id be fine if it was a new season of Sam and Max or something I would not care I would happily wait till 2014 but there is know way im gonna play fables.They are running from millions Walking dead just won goty 3 times the hype is huge delay Fables get halfway through season 2 to keep hype do half of fables then half of walking dead seriously who heres gonna play fables? That is my that might be the first game ever to win GOTY twice in a row but they have got to do my plan or ditch fables their choice fame and A huge record or some game they will make a couple million on and nobody will remember TWD in 2014 not everybody is a huge TellTale fan Is fables even Multi Platform?

[ZimoPoliZ]

I think mid/late 2013, if not than early 2014. If I don't remember wrong they said that season 2 is going to be released in 2013.

You're going to have to source that claim. I don't remember reading that anywhere.

Fables is coming first, so late 2013 is possible if Fables is done quickly and KQ is pushed back. But I still don't think it will happen because Activision's Walking Dead game is slated to release around there. Having the two games compete for fans' money is bad for both games, and Telltale will be under pressure to make that not happen.

Also, Telltale should take their time and make a good Season Two. The last thing we need is a shitty, rushed sequel. People aren't going to forget about Season One even if it takes three years.

As much as I want to play season 2, I much prefer if they took their time with the game. Any game rushed out the assembly line is pretty much guaranteed to disappoint and piss off fans with high expectations.

Source? A "multi-year deal" doesn't mean they have to make a new season every year. It just means that the deal extends across multiple years.

Fables was supposed to be released in 2012 before all the Walking Dead delays, so one expects it will come early 2013.

As far as I know, Telltale had announced in early 2011 that they were going to make a series based on the comics of Fables. It's likely that it's the next project Telltale is going to work on. I can't wait for it, the comics are great!
