What is the Telltale Guardians of the Galaxy Episode 2 release date? Telltale Games has promised that on average with their episodic games you can expect a new downloadable episode every 5 to 8 weeks. Note that prior Telltale series took at least 9 to 12 weeks to get a second episode. However, much like Minecraft: Story Mode & Batman before it, this Marvel series has a retail disc version for Season 1 coming out next month, on May 2nd, which may also coincide with the second episode launch (it only happened this early with Minecraft). As such, it’s expected that Episode 2 (titled “Under Pressure”) is arriving on May 23rd at the earliest or by June 6th, 2017 at the latest (now confirmed!). Delays notwithstanding. Those dates are worldwide Tuesday launch dates on PC, Mac, Xbox One, PS4 & Mobile (iOS and Android)!
