[E3 2015] ‘The Walking Dead’ VR Experience is Separate from Overkill’s Game

Published

on

We’ve known for some time that Starbreeze and Overkill have been collaborating on a game that’s set in The Walking Dead universe. What you might not know is Starbreeze has been showing off a demo for something called Overkill’s The Walking Dead – The VR Experience at E3 this week, and if you weren’t aware of this until a few seconds ago, you might read that and assume the two are one and the same. That assumption, it seems, would be incorrect.

The VR experience looks like a promotion for Overkill’s game. It isn’t. Sort of.

“These two things are two completely separate things,” explained Starbreeze global brand director Almir Listo when Polygon sought clarification. “You have Overkill’s The Walking Dead for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Steam, which is one game. Then you have this demo that is made for E3 that is its own game. These are two different entities. They will, however, share the same universe and the same storyline. However, one thing you’ll experience in one of them, and you might not be able to experience it in the other one.”

The reason for Listo’s non-answer is while the VR Experience isn’t officially its own thing right now, that could change depending on the response they get from E3 attendees.

If the feedback is glowing, we may get to add another Walking Dead game to a list that already includes Overkill’s game, a third season of Telltale’s series, as well as the Michonne-centric miniseries they announced earlier this week.
