Telltale has an interesting job posting up, where they are looking for an experienced mobile free-to-play producer to work on “an exciting new mobile game initiative." Now, this doesn’t mean that The Walking Dead season 4 is going to be free-to-play with microtransactions…necessarily. What it does mean is that Telltale is being proactive with the mobile games market. It’s huge, and the gaming landscape has real potential for the future with a ton of kids growing up who are mobile-first. And an older generation that would be interested in Telltale narrative games but don’t necessarily pay for games, maybe this is what this initiative is about.
Of course, this could all manage to not work out, or it might not even be in the Telltale name. Still, it’s an intriguing thing to think about as far as Telltale’s games go. And if you’re in the industry and want an interesting job, well…here you go.
