The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series Collection Gets a Visual Upgrade
Just ahead of the release of The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series Collection on December 5, Telltale have released a new graphical comparison video showing how the compilation will feature superior graphics and lighting effects to the originals.
The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series Collection will consist of Seasons One, Two and Three of Telltale’s acclaimed Walking Dead video games, in addition to the Michonne and 400 Days spin-offs. There will be 19 episodes in total, which so you should be occupied for one hell of a long time.
To date, Telltale’s Walking Dead video games have sold over 50 million copies worldwide, meaning that The Telltale Series Collection will almost certainly be a big hit. After its release, we can look forward to Season 4, which is set to arrive sometime next year.
The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series Collection is available to pre-order on PS4 and Xbox One.
From the Press Release:
Leading publisher of digital entertainment Telltale Games and multiplatform entertainment company Skybound Entertainment today launched a new trailer for The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series Collection that contains never-before-seen footage of the collection’s enhanced visuals in action. The trailer also contains footage from the original version of the same scene, allowing viewers to directly compare the updated visuals against the original graphics. For more information on the collection’s visual improvements, please see Telltale’s most recent developer blog, which details the specific actions undertaken to achieve this substantial visual upgrade.
The Walking Dead Collection will arrive in stores on December 5th at retailers across North America and Europe, gathering all 19 episodes in the award-winning series onto one disc for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The collection will also be available digitally on both platforms starting that same day. The collection includes the recent third season, The Walking Dead: A New Frontier, as well as visually enhanced versions of Season One, Season Two, 400 Days, and the three-part Michonne mini-series.
The Walking Dead is an unparalleled journey into the heart of what it means to be human in a world that’s lost its humanity. Set in Robert Kirkman’s award-winning comic book universe, your story is determined by the choices you make. Season One of The Walking Dead: A Telltale Series redefined expectations for storytelling in video games, winning over 100 Game of the Year awards. Now the first three seasons, as well as horror anthology 400 Days and the three-part mini-series starring blade-wielding icon Michonne, will be available in one place for the first time, allowing you to prepare for the upcoming fourth and final season starring beloved survivor Clementine (due out in 2018).
“Clementine has meant so much to fans since the series premiered in 2012,” said Melissa Hutchison, the award-winning actress behind the iconic character. “It’s incredible to see this series collection arriving all in one place for players to relive the journey or catch up on her tragic tale of survival before we head into the final chapters of her storyline next year.”
The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series Collection will be available at retail and digitally on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One starting December 5th, 2017 for the suggested price of $49.99 USD or equivalent. The Walking Dead: The Final Season (working title) will debut in 2018 on consoles, PC/Mac, iOS, and Android-based devices. Additional platforms are yet to be announced.
To date, The Walking Dead: A Telltale Games Series has sold more than 50 million episodes worldwide, earning more than 100 Game of the Year awards from outlets including Metacritic, USA Today, Wired, Spike TV VGAs, Yahoo!, The Telegraph, Mashable, Polygon, Destructoid and GamesRadar. It was also the recipient of two BAFTA Video Games Awards for Best Story and Best Mobile Game.
