Overkill Software is working on a video game in The Walking Dead franchise and while a formal reveal is still to come, writer and creator Robert Kirkman spoke to an SXSW Panel about what to expect.
As reported by Polygon, Kirkman revealed that the project would be similar to Payday. “It will be Payday-esque. But I’m told it will be in a bigger world than Payday currently encompasses. They are going to be learning a lot of stuff from Payday that they will be incorporating into The Walking Dead game.”
Interestingly, it will be an “online and interactive” experience. “PayDay is an online cooperative game correct? Yes. So it will follow a similar approach. That’s good news.”
The question remains as to how exactly that will work out but Kirkman promises that “there will be announcements about that game very soon”. Stay tuned for more information on the same and let us know what you hope to see in Overkill’s The Walking Dead.
