Telltale Games to contribute on Ankh

Rebel Games today officially announced that Telltale Games has agreed to contribute on the development of Rebel Games' upcoming Ankh, a cartoonish point & click set in Egypt. Telltale will provide creative feedback throughout the development of the game, which is scheduled for release this winter.

Telltale Games is a team of former LucasArts designers, and has earlier been working on projects such as Grim Fandango, Sam & Max and Escape from Monkey Island. They are also the guys behind Bone, which is due for later this year.

Judging from our E3 coverage and the gorgeous screenshots, Ankh could be one of the big surprise hits this year. With the help from the talents over at Telltale, adventure gamers are hopefully in for an Egyptian treat this winter.
