A new “The Walking Dead” game is on the horizon. Next Games and AMC announced this week that a new mobile game based on the series is in production. The game will see the iconic television and comic book series characters come to life in the mobile medium.

The game is planned to have a launch date that coincides with season 5 of the AMC series.

“We chose to team up with Next Games because of their outstanding creative and technical talent, as well as a willingness to re-imagine the unique and compelling world of The Walking Dead, which has built a significant and passionate global fan community,” said Charlie Collier, AMC president. “We’re thrilled to be part of this next wave of games innovation and participating in a project that – like the show itself – is in service of the fans.”

Teemu Huuhtanen, CEO at Next Games, added,

“Our take on the undead survival franchise will match the against-all-odds action and moment-to-moment tension of the TV series. We want to find that sweet spot where gameplay and narrative inform and reinforce one another. Like AMC’sThe Walking Dead itself, we’re not giving away too many details right out the gate, but I can confidently state it’s unlike anything we’ve seen from The Walking Dead franchise on home or mobile gaming hardware before.”

The companies will announce additional details related to The Walking Dead game in the coming months.
