How to Prepare for Launch Day" horizon="prepare

Follow these steps to make sure you are ready the moment The Wolf Among Us Remastered goes live.

1

Confirm Your Platform

Decide between PC, PS5, Switch, or Xbox. The Steam page is live now; check your preferred storefront for pre-order availability and regional pricing.

2

Wishlist or Pre-Order

Adding the game to your Steam wishlist or platform store list ensures you receive launch notifications and any pre-order updates.

3

Decide on Noir Mode

Plan whether your first playthrough uses the remastered color presentation or the black-and-white Noir Mode. Both are available from launch.

4

Review Beginner Basics

The game is a choice-driven adventure: investigation, timed dialogue, and relationship choices drive the story. Refresh the basics before entering Fabletown.

5

Launch and Play

The full five-episode campaign is available at release, so you can play straight through or savor each episode week by week.

Only purchase through official storefronts — Steam, PlayStation Store, Nintendo eShop, and Xbox Store. Key resellers and third-party listings are not covered by official launch information.
