Telltale’s Bringing ‘7 Days to Die’ to PS4, Xbox One

Published

Telltale more or less owns the world of episodic video games right now, thanks to a stellar development model and a continuously growing portfolio that already features The Walking Dead, Fables, Borderlands, Game of Thrones and Minecraft, with more on the way, including Batman later this year and something Marvel-related in 2017.

They’ve dominated their space, and now they’re looking to replicate that success in publishing, starting with The Fun Pimps’ open-world survival horror game, 7 Days to Die.

I’ve spent more than 50 hours in the game since it arrived on Steam Early Access more than two years ago. It’s an amalgam of various genres (FPS, tower defense, zombies, light RPG) and mechanics (crafting, looting, mining, exploring, killing zombies) that I find frighteningly addicting.

When 7 Days to Die comes to the PS4 and Xbox One later this year, it’ll bring even more ways to play it, either locally via split-screen, or online via its PvE/PvP survival mode, which they’ll be expanding with new multiplayer modes that will be unveiled in the near future.

7 Days to Die arrives this summer.

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.

Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”

In the SXSW 2024 horror film…

“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.

“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”

Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
