‘The Walking Dead: Betrayal’ Launches Into Early Access on Steam Today [Trailer]

Published

Skybound Entertainment and Other Ocean Interactive have announced that Early Access for The Walking Dead: Betrayal begins today via Steam. The third person action game of cooperation and deception for up to eight players is currently available for a 10% discount until September 21. Until then, for you “try before you buy” people, there will be a free weekend of play for Betrayal, starting at 10 AM PT September 14 and ending at 10 AM PT on September 18.

The team also laid out the Early Access roadmap for The Walking Dead: Betrayal, highlighting four major updates ahead of the game’s full launch. While no date for the full launch has been announced, a Q1 2024 has been penciled in.

Betrayal comes from the minds behind the hidden-role survival game, Project Winter. In each match, a group of survivors are out of resources with a herd of walkers on their heels. Players must work together to complete objectives and escape. They’ll need to work fast, as walkers aren’t the only threat they will have to face in rural Canada. Incognito ‘traitors’ lurk among them, plotting to do everything in their power to delay repairs, and prevent anyone from leaving. As evidence of their sabotage becomes apparent, paranoia and accusations threaten to tear the survivors apart as they desperately work towards escaping.

After the success of Jurassic World Evolution and its sequel, you knew that Frontier Developments would be itching to return to the well again. That appears to be the case, as the developer/publisher has announced that they’ve signed a deal with Universal for a third entry.

According to the press release, the third game in the series is scheduled for release between June 1, 2025 and May 31, 2026, with the game expected to be officially announced in the coming months. If you’re wondering about the date range, that would be because Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment are currently developing a new Jurassic World film that’s slated for release on July 2, 2025.

Jurassic World Evolution remains Frontier’s best-selling game to date since its release almost six years ago.

“We are delighted to reveal that we are developing a third Jurassic World game to extend our collaborative relationship with Universal Products & Experiences for our best-selling game franchise,” states Frontier Development Chief Executive Officer Jonny Watts. “Our Jurassic World Evolution game franchise has showcased great creative and technical expertise in CMS games and the strength of our select, develop, launch, and nurture strategy in the genre. I very much look forward to providing more information on our exciting plans for the franchise in the future.”

You can grab the first two entries in the series on the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam.
