October 6, 2023: Telltale Games has now confirmed the layoffs in a statement on its Instagram page that reads: "Due to current market conditions, we regrettably had to let some of our Telltale team go recently. We did not take this action lightly, and our commitment to storytelling and finding new ways to do so remains the same. We are grateful to everyone for their dedication along this journey, and we are working to support everyone impacted. All projects currently in development are still in production, and we have no further updates at this time."

The Wolf Among Us 2 has been heavy on many of our noggins, especially after its initial cancellation and subsequent return to development. Telltale Games shut down once in 2018, leaving many of its developers without a job, only to come back to life a year later under new ownership. Many of the company's former devs returned to work on upcoming games such as The Wolf Among Us 2 and the recently released The Expanse. Jonah Huang, one of the team's cinematic artists, has just shared that he and an unspecified number of other employees were laid off by Telltale last month.
