Telltale Games PR Manager Chris Schmidt has announced today that Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse is coming to PS3 via PlayStation Network this April, 2010.

To quote: We’re Telltale, and we make awesome episodic adventure games!

You may know of our work – Tales of Monkey Island, Strong Bad, and Wallace & Gromit are a few of our recent titles – but we’ve never launched a game on the illustrious PlayStation 3.

Until now, that is! Coming in April, Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse hits the PlayStation Store, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring the third season of our landmark episodic series to you, the PlayStation Nation!

If you’re not familiar with the rabbit/dog detective duo, the following description ripped unceremoniously from the press release explains our heroes’ new unhinged adventure:

In Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse, Max has been bestowed with a set of powerful psychic abilities from an unusual ancient source that he’ll wield against the strongest and strangest foes the Freelance Police have ever faced.

Join gaming’s greatest dog and rabbit sleuths as they investigate the source of these powers, with manic Max exercising new and amazing abilities with each episode. Max’s shape shifting, teleportation, mind reading and future sight abilities prove particularly useful as intergalactic simians, eldritch gods, under-dwellers and an arcane scholar ruthlessly hunt down those powers for their own evil ends.

For the first time on the PlayStation Store, we’re teaming up with the fine folks at SCEA to offer Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse for pre-order beginning March 18. Customers who pre-purchase the five-episode comedy saga will pay $29.99 (discounted from $34.99) until the game launches on PSN. Not too bad!

We can’t wait for you to experience the first episode, The Penal Zone, next month! In the meantime, go ahead and take a peek inside the Devil’s Playhouse with the trailer below!

Best post ever! (Well I like it anyway)

After the announcement the other day about Monkey Island content coming to PSN i see this! I had no idea Telltale had licensed the Monkey Island series and created new episodic content!

Being an old school adventure gamer, this really jumped out at me - so much so that i've just ordered the deluxe DVD set for my PC!

Looks like there are some good times coming up for us older members!

Cheers for the New +REP !

You make me feel old. I used to love same and max on my PC back in the day, and I'm only 23! I'm very excited for this. Not sure if I'll get it on PSN or PC yet though...
