SDCC 2019: Secrets From The Walking Dead Panel

SDCC 2019: Secrets From The Walking Dead Panel

, , , , , 0

As far as the future of The Walking Dead goes, everything is currently in transition. It’s too early to show a trailer for the next season of TWD, Fear The Walking Dead’s midseason finale is upon us, and the new spinoff in the works is still under construction. So the biggest topic of the day was the surprise ending of the comic book, which creator Robert Kirkman was present to explain. “I never really hit any point where I thought I was going to have to end it or I needed to end it prematurely,” Kirkman told the audience. “I know that when I hit issue 100, I had this feeling of like, I can’t believe I’m already an issue #100. I have so much more to do! I have so much more story. I’m so excited. I always knew I was going to end the book, but I really did think I would go past issue #300 at a certain point. I know people criticize the book for being

Telltale’s The Walking Dead series has had a long and bumpy road to completion. Its future was in question when its parent company collapsed, suspending development of all its signature point-and-click adventure stories. Some of them were removed from digital marketplaces, and it looked like The Walking Dead would share that fate until Skybound Games, part of Robert Kirkman’s own production company, stepped in. They gathered much of the original team from Telltale and completed the final season. Now The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Series is completely finished and will be sold as one product. A physical retail release, as well as a digital one (choose which you prefer), will contain everything: all four seasons of the series, the spinoffs Michonne and 400 Days, 10 hours of developer commentary, behind-the-scenes bonus features including concept and character art galleries, a “Return of The Walking Dead” documentary short, faithful recreations of classic menus, and a music player with over 140 musical tracks. Plus there’s something sort-of new: the option to render

The Walking Dead Comic Delivers Its Most Shocking Death — Itself

The Walking Dead Comic Delivers Its Most Shocking Death — Itself

The Walking Dead brand is pretty much known for its out-of-nowhere surprise deaths. No one is ever truly safe, at least in the comic where Hollywood contracts don’t guarantee survival for another season. Tomorrow Robert Kirkman’s apocalyptic tale will deliver the most surprising exit in the series’ history….its own. Issue #193, on sale July 3, is the final issue. Surprise! No one knew this until The Hollywood Reporter broke the news this afternoon. Kirkman pulled off the abrupt ending by soliciting fake covers for future issues that wouldn’t actually exist. The move comes just after the shocking events of Issue #192, in which central character Rick Grimes was shot to death, greeting son Carl the next day in zombified form. (The TV series strongly hinted it was killing Rick, but instead kept him alive to star in future TV movies.) In the Letter Hacks column at the end of the issue (and the series), Kirkman explains the motive behind his decision: I hate knowing what’s coming. As a fan, I

It’s been an open secret for several months that AMC wants to expand the presence of The Walking Dead on their channel even further than what already exists, by launching a third series set in Robert Kirkman’s post-apocalyptic world. Today was the day they made an official announcement. This yet-untitled third Walking Dead series will focus on two teenage female protagonists, representing “the first generation to come-of-age in the apocalypse as we know it.” “We’re thrilled that the Dead will keep walking into a new corner of the post-apocalyptic world, a corner that will present stories and characters unlike any that The Walking Dead has dramatized thus far, and that is bound to excite one of the most passionate fanbases in television,” says David Madden, president of programming for AMC. Matt Negrete, the appointed showrunner for this new series, says “I’m honored to be working with Scott and all the fine Dead folks at AMC in this new capacity. I can’t wait for the fans of the franchise to see

Today is the day some thought would never come: the day Telltale’s The Walking Dead becomes a complete, finished product with a definitive ending. If you need an explanation why, Telltale Games’ adaption of the Walking Dead comic book hasn’t had the smoothest development ride — it had to survive no less than the complete destruction of its developer. The series was one of Telltale’s most popular offerings, and the company responded to its popularity by licensing as many properties as they could and making the same game with all of them. Reckless spending, mismanagement, and mistreatment of workers combined to push Telltale over the edge, and it publicly collapsed in September of 2018. The sudden bankruptcy left all of Telltale’s projects in limbo, including The Walking Dead. A skeleton crew was kept around to complete the latest chapter of the final season, but after that, the doors were shuttered. Two chapters away from completion, Telltale’s The Walking Dead was involuntarily cancelled. Fortunately, Skybound Entertainment — Walking Dead creator Robert

For those just now tuning in, it’s been a wild and tumultuous ride for Telltale Games’ adaption of the Walking Dead comic book. The series was one of Telltale’s most popular offerings, and the company responded to its popularity by licensing as many properties as they could and making the same game with all of them. Reckless spending, mismanagement, and mistreatment of workers combined to push Telltale over the edge, and it publicly collapsed in September of 2018. The sudden bankruptcy left all of Telltale’s projects in limbo, including The Walking Dead. A skeleton crew was kept around to complete the latest chapter of the final season, but after that, the doors were shuttered. Two chapters away from completion, Telltale’s The Walking Dead was involuntarily cancelled. Fortunately, Skybound Entertainment — Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman’s production company — stepped in at that point. They brought production of the game in-house and hired back most of the laid-off employees from Telltale’s crew. Now the series has literally survived the apocalypse, and

Overkill’s The Walking Dead is a new story set within the Walking dead world. It features all new characters, and for the first time, 4-person co-op gameplay where you must work together to survive the zombie apocalypse. The game has launched on PC, and is set to arrive on consoles next year. But, the content for the PC version won’t wait, because they’re going to continue releasing content to expand the story and game world via seasonal packages. And now, Season 2 has released.

Though The Walking Dead universe is full of properties, including the legendary comic book, its adaptation TV series, and even a spinoff series not directly connected to the books, as well as popular video games, people are always looking for more. Which is why many are excited for Overkill’s The Walking Dead, which will feature four new characters taking on the world that they thought they once new. But, as they arrive in Gamescom, they now find themselves delaying the console version of the game until 2019. But, the PC version of the game is still coming this October. And a video released by the team at Overkill talks about the game at Gamecom as well as the delay. Here’s a brief synopsis of the title: “Inspired by Robert Kirkman’s original graphic novels, OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead is a four-player co-op multiplayer shooter in which players must band together on a variety of missions and raids to find survivors, secure supplies and stay alive.

TellTale Games has recently launched the final season of their The Walking Dead story that they started years ago. It will end the tale of Clementine, and finish up all the loose threads in the games. But to add to it all, they’ve promised to bring not just the fourth season, but the previous three seasons to the Nintendo Switch. Starting with The Walking Dead: The Complete First Season, which is set to arrive on the system on August 28th. The Complete First Season includes all five original episodes, as well as add-on anthology 400 Days. Both have been ported from last year’s The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series Collection, which offered substantial visual and performance enhancements over previous editions. Those upgrades will now carry over into The Complete First Season on Switch. This will be a boon for Nintendo Switch owners who had to use the TellTale site to fill in the story choices leading up to the final season. As for Seasons 02 and 03, they promise that they’ll launch on Switch later this

The Walking Dead franchise is no stranger to video games at this point. Telltale’s success with their comic book adaption is well-known, and both the comic and TV series have been adapted into other games — usually, cheap phone stuff. Overkill’s The Walking Dead, however, is different — it’s a serious attempt at a big expensive AAA fancy-pants game set in the comic’s universe. Starbreeze, Skybound Entertainment and 505 Games have been working on Overkill’s The Walking Dead for quite a while, and drip-feed new information out every now and then. They’ve introduced two central characters in the co-op FPS so far, Aiden the bat-wielding wanderer and Maya the former surgeon. Today it’s time to meet Grant. Of all the survivors we’ve met so far, Grant may be the best prepared for the apocalypse – a steely outdoorsman who left city life behind to live out his golden years in the wilderness with his trusty scoped rifle. But as we find him back in Washington, D.C., searching for his lost
