Transcript (en)
The Wolf Among Us serves as a prequel and adaptation of the Fables comic book series. It puts players in the shoes of Bigby Wolf, once known as the Big Bad Wolf, in the fairy tales of yore. Now the Sheriff of Fable Town, a district of New York City where fables live disguised with glamours, Wolf investigates the death of a fable and gets pulled into a conspiracy of government corruption, organized crime, and the various struggles of fable citizens. The Wolf Among Us remastered does not touch the original story, nor does it really mess with the gameplay. The key thing to keep in mind is that The Wolf Among Us Remastered is a painted-up graphical remaster, not an extensive remake. That said, there are a few drawbacks to the remaster. The Wolf Among Us Remastered's load times can feel a little long. For better or worse, The Wolf Among Us Remastered is also aimed at the most diehard fans outside the convenient timing of its release. The bonus content makes this clear. A unique noir mode, behind-the-scenes interviews about the original and the remaster's development, five playable deleted scenes, and a cool art gallery. This is the definitive and best way to play it now and ahead of The Wolf Among Us 2 in 2027. The Wolf Among Us Remastered releases on October 29th for PC, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X and S, with the Nintendo Switch version still in development.
