StarBreeze Reveals New Walking Dead Game!

The Walking Dead has become bigger than anyone ever expected. From awesome adventure titles to a hit TV show, this comic book series is rivaling that of certain Marvel and DC works – at least in terms of popularity. So, it should come to no surprise that another Walking Dead game is in the works!

What is surprising though, is who’s making it. In a partnership with Starbreeze Studios, OVERKILL Studios (Payday) announced that they are developing a new co-op Walking Dead game. They also released a chilling teaser to get fans hyped. Check it out:

“The collaboration between Starbreeze Studios and our partner Skybound Interactive will deliver something uniquely exciting for our millions of fans. We’re two independents joining forces to create the ultimate survival horror game. With Robert on the team, we will bring The Walking Dead into the world of first-person shooter co-op games.” says Bo Andersson Klint, CEO, Starbreeze AB. He continues, “It will be gameplay focused, ferocious and bring chaos to the traditional industry model – from us developers straight to you. This time it’s big – don’t walk alone.”

With Robert Kirkman cosigning this project and a teaser full of “feels”, I can’t help but be excited. I do hope that the title isn’t going to be The Walking Dead though. It’s a bit confusing without a subtitle of sorts; they could at least make it OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead. Naming conventions aside, 2016 is a long ways away. I guess I can always catch up on the comic in the meantime.

There’s no word on what system it will land on. That said, Starbreeze did say “next gen” so…
