Ever since Telltale shut its doors last year, its games have been slowly disappearing from digital storefronts. Just last week, a number of games were delisted from GOG, and soon, we'll be saying goodbye to one of the biggest games the developer had a hand in creating - Minecraft: Story Mode. If you own (or want to own) Minecraft: Story Mode, you're running out of time to get those downloads in.
Last year, Telltale games closed its doors for good. It was a sad end to a studio that had persisted in the games industry for 14 years, building a name for itself with episodic adventure games based on big-name licenses. Now, nearly eight months after the company went defunct, GOG has announced that it will soon be removing all remaining Telltale games from its catalog.
Netflix has released Telltale Games' Minecraft: Story Mode interactive episodic series for kids. The show, as with Puss in Boots: Trapped in an Epic Tale before it, enables viewers to get involved in the story by clicking to choose what comes next. The platform has released the first three episodes of Season 1 and will release the final two next month.
It looks like the end of Telltale Games may nearly be upon us. A new report today claims that Telltale is in the process of winding down for good, with liquidation of the company's assets underway. On top of that, some of Telltale's games have started disappearing from Steam, leaving us wondering if more will soon follow.
With Telltale Games shutting down in the most inglorious way possible, there are naturally well-founded concerns on how its still in-development games will continue. And more importantly, who will continue it. Although the ones beloved game developer keeps saying it will find a way to finish those games, it’s more likely that someone else will have to save the day. And who better to do that than Robert Kirkman, the very same person who co-created The Walking Dead.
It's a sad day for Telltale Games, the studio behind many notable video games, including the episodic The Walking Dead series and more. The company revealed in a statement that it laid off the majority of its employees today, the remainder sticking around only to wrap up some business obligations for the board and company partners.
Microsoft isn't the only company that wants to tackle game streaming. In fact, the king of streaming is poised to enter the space as well, as Netflix has confirmed that it's going to begin streaming games in some form. That's a pretty big announcement, but if you're big on gaming, you might not want to get too excited.
Telltale Games has announced the launch of Batman: The Enemy Within. The company has launched the second episode in this series, "The Pact," for PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. As well, both the first and second episodes can now be downloaded on Android and iOS devices. Assuming you get it on mobile, the first episode is now free.
The Nintendo Switch's lineup of third-party games is getting some welcome new additions. Telltale Games, the acclaimed developer behind a number of narrative-driven, episodic series, has announced that both its Batman and Guardians of the Galaxy titles will be coming the new hybrid console sometime later this year.
Telltale Games has announced that Minecraft: Story Mode - Season Two's second episode will be available starting this month. The company made the announcement earlier today, also saying that it will be launching Minecraft: Story Mode - The Complete Adventure for the Nintendo Switch the end of this month, doing so as both a physical cartridge and as a digital download.
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy: The Telltale Series is now available on the Google Play Store, iTunes, and for console gamers with either an Xbox One or a PlayStation 4. The game is priced at $4.99 USD regardless of which console or platform you get it on. If you particularly enjoy it and you have one of the two aforementioned consoles, you'll also be able to pick up the game on a special season pass disc starting on May 2.
Telltale Games is making its own “Guardians of the Galaxy” video game series, one that takes place in the Marvel world, which it revealed today with a bunch of screenshots. The game will feature the roster of Guardians, including Star-Lord, Drax, Rocket, Gamora, and Groot, and will revolve around the discovery of ‘an artifact of unspeakable power.' The game is going to drop this spring season.
