The Wolf Among Us Remastered has encountered PlayStation Store pricing problems following its October 29, 2026 launch, with some PS5 players unable to access the upgrade discounts promised by Telltale Games. The developer has acknowledged the issue and confirmed that Sony is working to correct the affected prices.
The problem involves promotional discounts intended for existing owners of The Wolf Among Us on PS4 and PlayStation Plus subscribers. Although eligible customers should receive savings of between 20% and 50%, some players have reported seeing the full $24.99 price or a smaller discount than their account qualifies for.
Telltale addressed the situation on October 29 through its official social media account, stating that Sony was working to correct the pricing and that additional information would be shared when available. The developer’s response confirms that the advertised discounts have not been functioning correctly for all affected customers.
Under Telltale’s official launch promotion, PlayStation customers qualify for different discounts depending on their ownership and subscription status.
PlayStation Plus subscribers who do not own the original game are eligible for a 20% discount. Players who own the original PS4 digital edition but do not subscribe to PlayStation Plus qualify for 30% off. Customers who both own the PS4 digital version and have an active PlayStation Plus subscription should receive the largest discount of 50%.
For the standard US price of $24.99, those discounts would bring the cost to approximately $19.99, $17.49, and $12.49, respectively, depending on eligibility and store rounding.
However, affected customers have reported receiving the wrong offers. One player who owned the original PlayStation version reported seeing a 20% discount instead of the expected 50%, while others encountered listings displaying the standard purchase price.
Some customers have subsequently reported that their discounts are appearing correctly, suggesting that the situation may be improving for certain accounts. However, those individual reports do not establish that the problem has been resolved across all regions and eligible purchases.
Telltale’s promotional terms specify that the ownership discount applies only to digital copies of the original game purchased through the same platform store and account. Physical copies do not qualify because ownership cannot be verified through the promotion’s purchasing system.
The launch discounts are scheduled to remain available from October 29 through November 12, 2026, with regional pricing and exact end times potentially varying.
The Wolf Among Us Remastered itself launched on October 29 with improved environments, character visuals, animation and audio, alongside a new black-and-white Noir Mode. The release also includes five playable deleted scenes, a gallery containing more than 100 images, and over an hour of developer interviews.
The pricing problem arrives during a busy period for PlayStation players, with the November 2026 PlayStation Plus monthly games also scheduled to become available on November 3.
Players considering the remaster should verify that the PlayStation Store displays the correct discount for their ownership and subscription status before completing a purchase. Those seeing an incorrect price can avoid paying more than the advertised offer while Sony addresses the issue.
Telltale has not provided a confirmed timeline for a complete resolution or announced a specific refund arrangement for customers who purchased the game at an incorrect price.
