Telltale’s ‘The Walking Dead’ SSN 3 Premiers in 2016
Telltale’s director of PR Job Stauffer has confirmed on Twitter that The Walking Dead is taking this year off. The episodic series’ third season will debut sometime next year, but before you get too worked up about it, Stauffer has also teased “something major” for fans of the series to look forward to this year. Something like another bonus episode, perhaps?
It sounds like the studio is prepping an announcement for this year’s E3, which runs June 16-18 — or, more accurately, June 15-18, since everyone knows those pre-E3 press conferences are where many of the more exciting headlines come from.
If you remember, Telltale released a “bridge” episode between the series’ first and second seasons called 400 Days, which connected the two seasons while also setting the stage for what ended up being a fantastic, albeit emotionally draining, return of Clem and friends.
Epic’s Fortnite is heading for another crossover, this time with Universal Orlando and Halloween Horror Nights. The title’s annual Fortnitemares Halloween event will be coming to Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort in a new scare zone, kicking off on August 28.
For those not in the know, Scare zones are themed, open-air areas where guests and actors roam around freely.
This is the first time Fortnite will be featured during the after-hours event, which will run from August 28 until November 1. Tickets and packages are on sale now at the official site.
Per the press release, guests will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground that’s been “overcome with a threatening force.” From there, fans will meet up with the Battle Bus, featuring familiar Fortnitemares characters, including “a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights.”
And of course, there will be Fortnitemares merchandise available for fans, including a graphic t-shirt, decal set, and an acrylic collectible piece.
Fortnitemares won’t be the only featured property at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights. Killer Klowns from Outer Space will also be getting its own scare zone. Sinners, Stranger Things, Hellraiser, and Evil Dead Burn will also be part of the event, though they will be relegated to their own specific houses.
And while it’s early yet, gamers can probably expect Fortnitemares to return to Fortnite this October.
