Announced by Activision on July 6, 2012, The Walking Dead Video Game (not to be confused with Telltale Games The Walking Dead Game) will star the Dixon brothers: Daryl Dixon and his brother Merle Dixon. The timeline of this game takes place before the beginning of the TV series, focusing on the two brothers' journey to Atlanta.
The game is a new first-person shooter based on the TV storyline of The Walking Dead, and whilst the game is all in first-person, the gameplay is much more akin to a survival horror, where resources like food and ammunition will be scarce and must be managed, as well as the brothers ability to either take down the walkers (zombies) or use stealth to slip past the undead.
OFFICIAL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The iconic walkers will relentlessly hunt down players like their television counterparts, using a combination of sight, sound and smell. As Daryl, players will need to tread carefully throughout each new area they explore. Once discovered, it doesn't take much to attract an unstoppable horde of undead walkers, so every threat needs to be assessed, and every situation analyzed. Players will have to choose between whether to stay and fight while risking a gruesome death or using stealth to avoid the undead. No place is truly safe for Daryl as he makes his way through the Georgia countryside in this new, post-apocalyptic world.
