Telltale Unveils Sam & Max Season Finale
Alongside the worldwide release of Sam & Max Season 1, Episode 5: Reality 2.0 today, Telltale Games has officially announced the final title in its first season of Sam & Max monthly episodic adventure games. In Episode 6: Bright Side of the Moon, which will serve as the series' first season finale, Sam & Max head to the moon as the nefarious schemings that have unfolded across the course of the season come to a head. Longtime Sam & Max fans may recall that this is not the crime-fighting duo's first expedition to the lunar sphere. In 1992, Sam & Max creator Steve Purcell published "Bad Day on the Moon," an issue of Sam & Max in which the protagonists battled massive invading cockroaches. That issue was adapted into an episode of the same name on the ill-fated Sam & Max animated television show "The Adventures of Sam & Max: Freelance Police."
Telltale has released several screenshots from the episode, along with a brief teaser trailer. Sam & Max Season 1, Episode 6: Bright Side of the Moon is scheduled to premiere on the GameTap service on April 26, 2007, with a general worldwide release on May 10, 2007.
