It's been two years since Telltale Games' second "season" of Sam and Max game episodes but in about a month the wait will be over. IGN, reporting from GDC, states that the first epsiode of the third season will be available for download on April 15 for both the PC and the Mac. It's the first time that any Telltale episodic series will launch for both PC and Mac platforms at the same time (oh, it's also coming to the Playstation Network too).

There will be five episodes for this season, which apparently has the overall subtitle The Devil's Playhouse. Telltale will let folks pre-order the full season for $34.95 but it looks like they won't be selling individual episodes yet. Anyone who does pre-order will get some special stuff such as a free episode from any of Telltale's previous games, access to a special preview section, a private forum with chats with Telltale's team and Sam and Max creator Steve Purcell and more.
