Telltale’s adventure continues this summer
That’s right! A new five-part Story Mode saga arrives on July 11th. Jesse’s tale didn’t end with merely becoming the world’s greatest living hero – if anything, life just got more complicated. There are responsibilities! Emerging rivalries! Unmeetable expectations of friends new and old!
As a simple treasure hunt goes wrong, trapping Jesse’s hand in a cursed prismarine gauntlet, we discover that maybe there are other downsides to fame, too – like having a dark and ancient power know your name.
A new adventure beckons, sending Jesse on a quest to the darkest depths of the world – and beyond! Joined by a motley band of familiar faces, fortune hunters, sometime enemies and one deeply disobedient llama, there will be tough choices, peril aplenty and no shortage of People Who Will Remember That.
Patton Oswalt, Catherine Taber, Ashley Johnson and Scott Porter are among the currently announced cast – with more details to follow! Watch out for cameos from Youtubin’ heroes Stampy Cat and StacyPlays, too.
If you’re a returning player, the game will keep a track of all those weighty decisions you made in Season 1 – but new players should find it an easy place to jump on, too. You can even join in the fun with friends thanks to Telltale’s “Crowd Play” feature, which lets you help to direct the action from any online mobile device.
Episode 1, titled “Hero in Residence”, will be downloadable on July 11, for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, Mac, iOS, and Android-based devices. We’ll be bringing you more details and ELITE INSIDE INFO in the coming weeks, but in the meantime keep an eye on Telltale’s website!
Is there any support for other editions of the game to be released as well, such as the Xbox 360 and Nintendo Switch versions?
