The Wolf Among Us Remastered Price

The Wolf Among Us Remastered lists at $24.99 in the US. At launch it is 20% off, which brings it to $19.99 on Steam, the Epic Games Store and the PlayStation Store. The discount is a launch promotion, not a permanent price, and it will end without much warning.

There is a second discount that matters more if you already own the 2013 release: on most platforms, owning the original digital version takes up to 50% off the remaster. That stacks with the launch promotion on some storefronts and is handled as an upgrade offer on others, so the checkout total is not the same everywhere.

The numbers at a glance

Those are US prices. Every storefront converts to its own regional price rather than using a straight exchange rate, and some regions add taxes at checkout instead of including them. If you are outside the US, trust the store page in your own currency — the dollar figure here is only useful as a comparison point.

Who gets the owner discount

Telltale's messaging has been consistent: players who own the original digital release can upgrade for less, with the discount capped at 50%. The details vary by platform:

• Steam detects the 2013 release in your library and applies an owner offer at checkout. If you own it, the store page shows the reduced price directly rather than a coupon.
• PlayStation ties the offer to the same PSN account that owns the PS3 or PS4 version. Region matters: an original bought on a different regional account will not trigger the discount.
• Xbox checks the Microsoft account's ownership history. Because the remaster runs as an Xbox One title on Series X|S, the license behaves like any last-generation purchase.
• Epic has its own entitlement check and does not see your Steam library. Owning the game on Steam does not discount the Epic version.

Disc-based owners are the exception. A physical PS3 or Xbox 360 copy is not proof of purchase in a digital store, so the owner offer generally does not apply. That is the one case where the standard launch discount is the best available price.

Is $19.99 a fair price?

The original 2013 season launched at $24.99 for five episodes, roughly $5 per episode. The remaster asks the same list price twelve years later and adds:

• Rebuilt character models, new textures and props, and reworked lighting across all five episodes.
• Noir Mode, a full black-and-white presentation toggle.
• More than an hour of bonus material, including five playable deleted scenes.
• An updated interface, accessibility settings, and resolution and frame-rate improvements.

For a returning player, the honest question is whether you will replay ten hours of a game whose story you already know. If the answer is yes, $19.99 is reasonable for a remaster of this scope. If you only want to see the new content, the bonus material is a couple of hours at most and does not justify the purchase on its own.

For a newcomer, the math is simpler: this is the only version of The Wolf Among Us on current consoles, and $19.99 buys one of Telltale's strongest narratives with the rough edges of the 2013 build smoothed out. The review roundup covers whether the port itself is clean.

Will the price drop further?

Probably, but not soon. Telltale's remasters tend to hold their launch price for the first few months, then appear in seasonal sales. A 30–40% discount around the next major Steam sale is a realistic expectation; a permanent price cut in 2026 is not.

Waiting has one hidden cost: the game's choice carry-over into The Wolf Among Us 2 is tied to your Telltale Account, and the sequel arrives in 2027. Playing before then means your save is ready. That is not a reason to pay full price if money is tight, but it is a reason not to wait until the last week.

Physical edition pricing

There is no physical price yet. Telltale said boxed copies would follow later in the holiday season, without confirming contents, platform coverage or price. Retail listings that appear before an official announcement are placeholders and frequently change.

If you want a disc, the practical advice is to buy digital now if you intend to play at launch, and treat the physical release as a collector's purchase later. The physical edition guide tracks what is confirmed.

Regional pricing and taxes

A few things that surprise people at checkout:

• EU prices include VAT. The euro figure looks higher than the dollar figure because the tax is already inside it.
• US prices exclude sales tax. The $19.99 can become $21 and change depending on your state.
• Argentina, Turkey and similar regions use their own pricing tiers. Gifting or region-switching to chase a lower price violates most storefront terms and can lock the account.
• Console store credit can be combined with the launch promotion, but not with the owner discount in every region.

FAQ

How much is The Wolf Among Us Remastered?

$24.99 at list price, or $19.99 during the 20% launch promotion. Owners of the original digital release can pay less, up to 50% off depending on platform.

Is the remaster free if I own the original?

No. Owning the 2013 release unlocks a discount, not a free copy. The exact offer depends on the storefront and region.

Does the launch discount apply to consoles?

Yes. PlayStation and Xbox both show the same 20% launch promotion in the US. Regional promotions can differ in length.

Will the price go up after launch?

It returns to $24.99 when the promotion ends. There is no announced price increase beyond that.

Bottom line

$19.99 is the price to aim for this month. Check whether your account owns the 2013 release first, because the owner offer can beat it, and do not pay full price for a digital copy while a launch promotion is running. Once you have bought it, the release date page explains unlock times, and the walkthrough starts the case without spoiling the ending.
