Telltale's Multiplayer Plans

Telltale Games plans to add social multiplayer elements to their games in the future, revealing this at Comic-Con where Inverse got the details on how this will work (thanks Eurogamer.net). Here's word on how they will turn their episodic adventures into collaborative affairs:

“It really opens up this door for Telltale games to be more of a social experience and a live one, [making it] an opportunity to get together with your friends and play stories together, instead of just debating about things the next day after you’ve both played separately,” Stauffer noted, mentioning that players will also be able to see which players in a session chose what after the episode is over.

“Even if players chose certain options, and they didn’t win because they were in the minority, you can see sort of how these players were leaning and what their behavior was,” he explained.

In any case, the approach is a natural evolution of what Telltale has always strived for.

“All of our games are built in the language of cinema,” Stauffer said. “So, it’s meant to be consumed on a screen, it’s meant to be consumed and observed and interacted with in a language thats just the same as how people consume television and movies. I think all roads have been leading to this point.”
