Polygon’s takepoints to a recent Reddit post where Telltale’s Dan Connors states that the developer is "working on a few licenses that definitely fall into our dream IP scenario and we can’t wait to announce those."
When approached about the report, a Telltale rep stated the studio had no comment at this time.
"We get these sorts of rumors about what we could be working on next cropping up all the time. Officially we have no comment."
