'The Wolf Among Us 2' to launch in 2023, drops new trailer

Ten years after the original game came out, The Wolf Among Us 2 finally gets a tentative release date. The revived Telltale Games team announced that the sequel will arrive sometime in 2023, dropping a new trailer alongside the announcement.

The story is the precursor to Bill Willingham's Fables comics, following Fableton sheriff Bigby Wolf and this time, we see some well-known characters from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. This sequel takes place six months after the first season, promising plenty of drama as a new case gets the NYPD involved. It took the team this long to update the game as the company went through issues, including its dissolution in 2018 but then got a second chance from LCG Entertainment in 2019.

Android 13 is codenamed Tiramisu

It seems like it's been a while since we've seen a dessert codename for Android's newest operating system upgrade. But actually, the company brought it back for Android 11 and 12, with the two codenamed Red Velvet Cake and Snow Cone, respectively. We learn that Android 13 is codenamed Tiramisu, after the coffee-flavoured Italian dessert.

Google recently released the first Android 13 Developer Preview, bringing changes that build on Android 12 features. Android 13 is expected to bring back dynamic theming but with improved third-party app integration and tweaks to how Android handles security and permission. A new photo picker will let you share photos and videos in your local storage and on Google Drive without requiring app permission for all images. While this feature will roll out with Android 13, it will be available to Android 11 and above devices.
