About Telltale Games
Telltale Games is an American video game developer and publisher specializing in episodic narrative adventures, interactive storytelling and character-driven cinematic experiences. Its games emphasize branching dialogue, player decisions and adaptations of established comic book, literary and television properties. The current business operates under LCG Entertainment, Inc., an independent company that acquired the Telltale brand and selected assets in 2019.
The brand’s history began with a separate company established in 2004. That predecessor developed titles including The Walking Dead, The Wolf Among Us and Tales from the Borderlands before ceasing active development in 2018. LCG Entertainment was formed later that year and purchased the brand, back catalog and associated intellectual property from liquidation firm Sherwood Partners in August 2019. The acquisition revived the public Telltale name under a distinct corporate entity; the predecessor’s original development credits remain part of the brand’s history rather than the new company’s production record.
Development and publishing
The current studio combines game development with publishing, digital distribution and management of acquired catalog properties. Its capabilities include narrative scriptwriting, world-building, creative direction, multi-platform engineering, optimization, remastering and porting. Its work spans PC, console and mobile markets, with an emphasis on bringing cinematic storytelling and choice-driven interaction to established fictional worlds.
Telltale published The Expanse: A Telltale Series in July 2023 through a development collaboration with Deck Nine Games. Its current-company releases also include the 2019 re-release Batman: Shadows Edition and The Wolf Among Us Remastered, released with co-publisher PM Studios on October 29, 2026. The remaster adds enhanced visuals and Noir Mode to the acquired adventure.
As of November 2026, the studio is also developing The Wolf Among Us 2, scheduled for 2027. Its catalog strategy combines new narrative productions with renewed availability and updated editions of selected games acquired during the brand’s revival.
More about Telltale Games
Leadership
Jamie Ottilie serves as Chief Executive Officer, Brian Waddle as Chief Revenue Officer, Zac Litton as Vice President of Engineering, and Sara Guinness as Senior Director, Global Brand Marketing. Ottilie and Waddle formed the current company together.
Production model and technology
The company describes its distributed development model as designed for sustainable production, combining a core team with external co-development partners. Its modern production pipeline uses Unreal Engine. The report records a late-2023 internal realignment and team resizing in response to market conditions.
The acquisition of Flavourworks was intended to bring its TouchVideo interactive video technology into narrative productions for mobile and connected screens. Flavourworks’ UK corporate entity was dissolved on August 20, 2024, following absorption of its technology and personnel into Telltale’s distributed framework.
Financing
In February 2023, Telltale secured an $8 million Series A funding round led by Hiro Capital, with participation from Skybound Entertainment.
