Telltale Games to produce a Minecraft game
Telltale Games, who have pioneered the field of storytelling games with their The Walking Dead, The Wolf Among Us, Tales from the Borderlands, and Game of Thrones storytelling games, have announced their latest project: a Minecraft game.
Telltale is being a bit coy with the details, but they have made it clear that the game will not be the story of Minecraft itself, and that it will complement the core game, rather than being a part of it.
Ordinarily I would have been skeptical of this news, but having just finished Tales from the Borderlands, I am a fan. I did not think that a storytelling game adaptation of the Borderlands series could possibly be any good, but Telltale’s unique take on the game, as well as its many in-jokes and bits of meta humor, made me a convert. Looking forward to their next project!
