Ahead of their release on October 12th for the first episode of a five-part series, Telltale Games has offered up a launch trailer for the new comic book video game adaptation The Wolf Among Us.

Based on the Vertigo Fables series from DC Comics (penned by Bill Willingham), the game takes on the episodic nature of Telltale's previous The Walking Dead series but also borrows the iconic cel-shaded graphical artstyle seen in the Walking Dead episodes.

The first episode, Faith, will be available come Saturday for Australian gamers so make sure you check out the trailer below for a look at just what you'll be getting yourself into. The Wolf Among Us is currently available for pre-order on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
