Everything We Know About The Wolf Among Us 2
The Wolf Among Us 2 Story Plot
Six months after the events of the first game, Bigby Wolf finds himself in a precarious position. Temporarily stripped of his sheriff duties, he's forced to attend anger management classes following a violent altercation with the Tinman and the Scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz. Amidst the turmoil, he is approached by a human (a "Mundy" as they are unaffectionately called) detective named Faye, who seeks his help on a case. New York City takes center stage, as Bigby grapples where he fits in the two worlds—Fable or Mundy.
Moreover, while The Wolf Among Us 2 is a sequel, the developers have confirmed that the story is being crafted to be self-contained.
The Wolf Among Us 2 Setting
The Wolf Among Us is rooted in Bill Willingham's acclaimed Fables comic books and is a prequel to the said series. In this world, fairy tale characters have stepped out of their stories and into a gritty, modern-day New York City. But don't be fooled by their appearances; these familiar figures hide dark secrets behind their backs.
Unlike the first game, which was mostly confined to Fabletown, The Wolf Among Us 2 seems poised to explore more of New York City.
The Wolf Among Us 2 Characters
Bigby Wolf
Bigby Wolf returns with his gruff exterior and quick temper. In Wolf Among Us 2, he is now a private investigator still dealing with the fallout of his violent actions. He is also in anger management and has been suspended from his role as a sheriff.
Bigby struggles to come to terms with his own nature as a wolf. He is often drawn to violence and is always on the brink of losing control and transforming into the Big Bad Wolf. It has been confirmed that Bigby will still be voiced by Adam Harrington, his original voice actor.
Snow White
Following the events of the first game, Snow White steps into a more prominent role as the new Deputy Mayor of Fabletown. Snow's responsibilities have escalated, as she tries to rebuild and clean up the political corruption left behind by the old administration. Snow White now deals with external pressures to ensure that her city doesn't spiral into chaos.
It has been confirmed in a behind-the-scenes video that Erin Yvette will return to reprise her role as Snow White.
Detective Faye Leung
Detective Faye Leung is a Mundy detective from New York City who finds herself thrown into Fabletown. Fresh on a case that doesn't quite look right in her mundane eyes, Leung quickly realizes she's out of her depth and turns to the legendary Bigby Wolf for help.
