My, what big teeth you have

The Walking Dead dev to release The Wolf Among Us on iOS and Vita this autumn

Did you enjoy slaying zombies and chopping the limbs off your mates in the Silver Award-winning The Walking Dead: The Game?

If so, there's good news ahead - but it doesn't involve zombies.

Instead, it involves the big bad wolf, flying monkeys, and legions of other monsters plucked from fairy tales and folklore.

That's right, we're talking about the episodic adventure game The Wolf Among Us which will find its way to the App Store and the PlayStation Vita later this autumn.

The Wolf Among Us is based on the award-winning Fables comic book series which Telltale Games describes as "an often violent, mature and hard-boiled thriller where the characters and creatures of myth, lore and legend are real and exist in our world."

In The Wolf Among Us, you play as Bigby Wolf - also known as the big bad wolf - who has to unravel a brutal and bloody mystery of who's murdering fables.

Like The Walking Dead, your choices and decisions influence the direction that the story takes in The Wolf Among Us.

Bigby might, for example, unleash the beast within if you don't take his lupine temperament into account... which is a frightening prospect for anyone within arm's reach at the time.

We don't have a firm release date or pricing on this one just yet, but we do have a nifty trailer to show you. We'll post additional details just as soon as we have them to report.
