Telltale Games' The Wolf Among Us launches this week

Telltale Games' The Wolf Among Us will launch this week on Xbox 360, PC, and Mac, the developer has confirmed.

The PlayStation 3 version will follow "a few days" after the other versions launch on Friday October 11, according to Telltale.

The Wolf Among Us is an episodic five-part adventure based on the Fables comic series by Bill Willingham and published by DC. The first episode will be titled Faith, with the whole series taking place before the first issue of the comic.

Those who currently preorder the PC version of the game in North America through the Telltale Games website will be able to receive a Collector's Edition DVD of the game for the cost of shipping and handling.

Telltale says the game is being developed by the same team who worked on last year's critically-acclaimed adaptation of The Walking Dead.
