The latest mobile game set in Skybound’sThe Walking DeaduniverseisThe Walking Dead: All-Stars, developed by experienced South Korean developer and publisher Com2uS. Com2uS is behind many successful mobile games includingSummoner’s War, which boasts over 100 million downloads and maintains a strong population over seven years after release.The Walking Dead: All-Starswill feature somewhat similar squad-based tactics gameplay using teams of collected survivors to progress through increasingly difficult story-driven challenges, while players will also be able to do some base management by developing their personal sanctuaries with resources earned through gameplay.
The game’s visual style is clearly based onThe Walking Deadcomic seriesrather than the live-action AMC series, which lends well to the 2D mobile game format. A diverse cast of familiar survivors including Rick, Michonne, and Glenn will be collectible along with antagonists such as Negan and Alpha, so fans ofThe Walking Deadwill most likely have a chance to acquire their favorite characters. The game will include several different modes besides the normal stages, such as Supply Run, Camp Defense, Joint Combat, and Auto-Search. A dedicated PvP mode also pits players' squads against one another to obtain resources in trueThe Walking Deadfashion.
Pre-registration for the game is available onThe Walking Dead: All-Stars' website which will give gamers a chance to try it out early, although no full release date has been announced as of yet. A zombie-stomping squad-based collection game might be just the time-killerThe Walking Deadfans need while waiting for the bigpremiere ofTales of the Walking Dead.
The Walking Dead: All-Starsis available for pre-register on Android and iOS.
