The penultimate episode of The Walking Dead game series, Around Every Corner, is waiting for mobile gamers and fans to download. Join a group of survivors as they arrive in Savannah, GA, stalked by an unseen human threat as well as the constant menace of the walkers. In the wake of the undead plague, will you help or hinder Lee Whitta’s efforts to hold an increasingly paranoid group together and protect 8-year-old Clementine while she searches for her parents after the zombie apocalypse?
The fourth episode in the critically acclaimed five-part Walking Dead game series
from Telltale Games and Walking Dead creator and writer Robert Kirkman was written by Gary Whitta, the screenwriter behind The Book of Eli
and the upcoming film After Earth (starring Will Smith and directed by M. Night Shyamalan). Not surprisingly, The Walking Dead: Episode Four - Around Every Corner is rated M for Mature by the ESRB for its blood and gore, intense violence, sexual themes and strong language.
Currently episode 4 is available through the PlayStation Network, Xbox Live Marketplace and Steam (for PC and Mac computers). Each Walking Dead game episode is available for $4.99 and there is also a season pass available on the PlayStation Network and Xbox LIVE Marketplace. The season pass for PC and Mac gamers runs $24.99.
Mobile gamers using iOS mobile devices will be treated to episode 3 later this month with both episode 4 and 5 (the series finale) following later this year. Walking Dead: The Game is available through the iTunes apps Store for $4.99 and episodes 2-5 can be bought as in-app purchases for $4.99 each or as a multi-episode bundle for $14.99.
The full series is also scheduled to launch as a retail product in North America for XBox 360, PlayStation and PC this year.
For those unfamiliar with the Walking Dead game series, it is set in the world of Robert Kirkman’s award-winning comic book series. Players will experience the life changing events and meet both new and familiar characters through a series of events that foreshadow the story of Sheriff Rick Grimes. The Walking Dead offers a tailored game experience, meaning player choices and actions affect how their story unfolds and plays out throughout the entire five-part series.
