The remastered edition of the critically acclaimed Telltale title is still scheduled to launch on October 29 for PlayStation, Xbox, and PC, while the Nintendo Switch release will be deferred to a later, as-yet-undetermined date.
Background and platforms
The Wolf Among Us Remastered is the refreshed edition of Telltale's episodic narrative adventure, prepared for contemporary platforms.
Telltale had previously listed both Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 among the platforms for the remaster, but the developer's latest statement addresses only the standard Switch edition.
The company said it is taking extra time to ensure the experience meets expectations for Nintendo players, and that it will provide an updated Switch release date when ready.
Telltale statement rewritten
In clear, journalistic terms, Telltale conveyed that the team needs additional development time to deliver a quality Nintendo Switch version.
The studio emphasized that bringing the game to Switch for the first time is an important moment and that delaying the release will help ensure the port meets the studio's standards.
Telltale reiterated that console and PC releases on October 29 will proceed as planned, and that Switch players should expect the game later than that date.
What this means for Switch players and eShop availability
Because Telltale has not yet provided a revised launch date, the Nintendo Switch edition will not appear on the Nintendo eShop in October.
The developer also did not address the previously announced Nintendo Switch 2 listing in the latest message, leaving that platform's status unmentioned in the update.
Telltale said it will share a new date for the Switch release as soon as it can.
