Official Statement: Telltale is Actively Working on Potentially Finishing “The Walking Dead”
There have been many reports about the state of Telltale Games in the last few days, and as we learned over the weekend, the company’s mass layoffs and impending closure have even thrown a huge wrench in The Walking Dead: The Final Season. Episode 2 is out tomorrow, September 25, but it’s possible that we may never get Episodes 3 and 4, as promised.
That said, a small glimmer of hopes comes in the form of an official statement from Telltale tonight, the company revealing that they *might* be able to finish the story proper.
“Multiple potential partners have stepped forward to express interest in helping to see The Final Season through to completion,” Telltale tweeted tonight. “While we can’t make any promises today, we are actively working towards a solution that will allow episodes 3 and 4 to be completed and released in some form. In the meantime, episode 2 will release tomorrow across all platforms as planned. We hope to have answers for your other questions soon.”
More as we learn it.

Given its content, it’d be apropos for GPTRACK50 to release its zombie action-adventure RPG Stupid Never Dies around Halloween, wouldn’t it? That’s exactly what we’re getting, as the game will launch October 21 for PC via Steam and PlayStation 5. The announcement was accompanied by a short trailer featuring Phoenix Zaza Hotfeathers, a cosmic custodian who bears more than a passing resemblance to MC Hammer, busting a move.
As if that wasn’t enough to get you excited for the apocalypse, players can get an early listen to Stupid Never Dies‘ soundtrack with the release of two tracks—the official theme songs for the game—on August 4. The tracks will be available to stream via Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, and other major music streaming platforms. In the meantime, you can check them out below via YouTube.
In the aftermath of the Great War, humanity teeters on the brink of extinction and monsters rule the land. At the bottom rung of this society is Davy, a lowly zombie scraping by in a deserted shopping mall. One day, he discovers the human girl Julia frozen to death in a freezer…and falls in love at first sight. Motivated by his newfound crush, Davy finds his purpose in undeath: to bring Julia back to life, then to ask her out.
