Telltale has achieved quite the success with its “The Walking Dead” series, where now fans are expecting the release of the third season of the game. What new things will await the players and what surprises have the developers prepared?
Game Rant reports that Telltale’s newest installment in “The Walking Dead” series is named “The Walking Dead: A New Frontier” and was introduced to gamers during The Game Awards Ceremony. The trailer showed during the awards shows that the story of “The Walking Dead” Season 3 will take place a few years after the ending of the second season. This comes from seeing Clementaine a few years older than what the players remember her. AJ is also with her and viewers of the trailer got to meet the newest character in the series. His name is Javier and he is a survivor who has been split apart from his family.
Among the good surprises which the developers have prepared is the fact that players will be able to import their saves from Season 1 and Season 2 of Telltale’s “The Walking Dead” series. Attack of the Fanboy shares that it is still not sure how the import will affect gameplay. Some of the decisions in the first season of the game impacted the second season’s events quite deeply, but any additional download content was left practically unscarred by the decisions which the gamers had made. They also turn attention to the fact that the second season had multiple different endings and the import might choose to ignore some of them In the name of a more stable narrative.
Touch Arcade shares that the future episodes of Telltale’s “The Walking Dead” will be released in two parts. The first half arriving in December, 2016. Those who have to had the chance to experience the first two seasons of the game should not worry, as it does not require previous part to play and it has a placeholder story to go by, in case there are no saves to be imported.
