Telltale’s The Walking Dead Season 3 finally has a release date!
Announced during the Telltale panel at PAX West 2016, the third season of the much anticipated series, titled The Walking Dead – A New Frontier, will premiere this November on consoles, PC/Mac, and mobile platforms. A special ‘Season Pass Disc’ for consoles, which will include the premiere episode for the third season, as well as access to all subsequent episodes in the five episode season for download as they become available.
Players will be able to take control of series newcomer Javier who is described as “a man struggling to keep his family together in the new world.” The Walking Dead favorite, Clementine, will also be returning as a playable character who is “now a teenage survivor holding secrets of her past while fighting to protect family of her own.”
“This third new season will serve as both a continuation of what’s come before in our story, as well as an all-new beginning set nearly four years after the outbreak events of Season One,” said Kevin Bruner, Co-Founder and CEO of Telltale Games. “As a harrowing and horrific drama, ‘A New Frontier‘ will explore beyond what it means to survive in a world ravaged by the undead, and will see our characters confronting the new rules of order and justice in a land being brutally reclaimed and rediscovered by what’s left of humanity itself.”
“When we began this series, we explored what it meant to protect a character like Clementine at all costs,” said Kevin Boyle, Executive Producer on the series. “Years later, meeting her for the first time, Javier will begin to unravel the mystery of who Clementine has become, as her story intersects with his – both of them still driven by the things they value most long after society’s collapse.”
‘The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series – A New Frontier’ will be available this November.
