More Walking Dead on the way

​

After The Walking Dead the episodic game by Telltale Games it seems Activision now want a piece of the Walking Dead pie and have revealed they are publishing a new FPS title based on the popular Comic Book/TV series. Activision have said that their title will be more focused on action & it tells the story of brothers Daryl and Merle Dixon before the events of the TV series and will be developed by Terminal Reality.​

​

The game is set for a 2013 release on Xbox, PS3 and PC​

​

​

Telltale are also hard at work on new episodic content for their already released title and have said they arent finished with the series yet and plan to create more Walking Dead games.​

Sounds good to me! I just hope it can distinguish itself from the horde (pun intended) of other zombie-based shooters games like Left 4 Dead, Dead Island, and, to a lesser extent, modern Resident Evils.

I still need to get around to buying the Walking Dead box set, as it happens...

Love the TV show, hope they manage to convey the difficult survivor situation in the game. Too many zombie games are ust run and gun imo

Apparently the games are more geared for survival and managing the resources you find rather than zombie blaster like L4D.

​

The Walking Dead video game takes the undead and brings them out of the TV show and into console gaming systems in a terrifying way. The iconic walkers will relentlessly hunt down players like their television counterparts, using a combination of sight, sound and smell. As Daryl, players will need to tread carefully throughout each new area they explore. Once discovered, it doesn't take much to attract an unstoppable horde of undead walkers, so every threat needs to be assessed, and every situation analyzed. Players will have to choose between whether to stay and fight while risking a gruesome death or using stealth to avoid the undead. No place is truly safe for Daryl as he makes his way through the Georgia countryside in this new, post-apocalyptic world. ​
