There’s More Walking Dead Coming Before Season Two

Apparently the next season is a ways off, but "something" is being cooked up before then.

Nope, those aren't tears in my eyes. It's allergies.

We already knew Telltale Games would be producing another season of The Walking Dead, but apparently the wait’s going to be a little bit easier. The studio will be releasing something before season two.

Story consultant Gary Whitta was on IGN’s Up at Noon, and revealed this big ol’ tease.

“There may very well be more Walking Dead from Telltale before season two,” he said. “We may have a little something extra for you between season one and two. There may be something in the works, even as we speak, that will make the wait for season two slightly less agonizing.”

As for when we might hear more about this, Whitta said “solid information” is coming “in the near future.” When asked for details, Telltale Games wasn’t willing to expand on Whitta’s comments.

When I spoke with project leads Sean Vanaman and Jake Rodkin earlier this year, the duo had moved onto Telltale’s next big series, based on the Fables comics. It seems likely we’re looking at a 2014 debut for The Walking Dead. The first episode of Telltale’s first season came out in April 2012.

“There’s not much to say because it is really very early in the process--we’re just starting to talk about it,” said Whitta. “It’s a way off.”

A proper ending to Season 1 would be nice, instead of the bs "find out what happens to Clementine in Season 2" cliffhanger we were left with. The half-assed way Season 1 wrapped really left a bad taste in my mouth, to the point where I currently have no intention of continuing the series even though Season 1 was one of my favourite games of the year (first 4 episodes anyway).

That's not how I took the end of the season. I took that as the end of the story they had to tell about that group of survivors. If you're right, and the second season just carries on with Clem, then I will probably not play it. I experienced their story. I'm ready for another group's story, now.

2014? I really didn't expect it would take that long. I figured late this year at the latest.

But oh well... enough to play.

@branthog: The after credits cut-scene makes a new season without Clem highly unlikely. Only other possibility being it gets addressed in whatever they're working on now.

I'll have to play this game now I guess. This will be the timefiller until Bioshock Infinite.
