Unlock the Chilling Secrets of the New Walking Dead: Destinies Walkers

The Walking Dead: Destinies will guide players through the show's first four seasons, allowing them to revisit iconic locations like the hospital, camp, prison, and Woodbury. However, the game introduces an interesting twist by posing the question, "What If?" Players have the power to alter the fates of characters, determining who lives, who dies, who stays, and who leaves. While this already adds a significant change to the formula, the game still follows the natural progression of the story. But the characters aren't the only elements subject to change.

During our recent interview with Flux Games' game director Paulo Luis Santos, we inquired about the possibility of new locations in The Walking Dead: Destinies. Considering that different characters may lead the group, it would make sense for them to take alternate paths between destinations. However, Flux Games prioritizes staying true to the show and faithfully adapting it, while incorporating player choices. Nevertheless, one noteworthy addition from Flux Games comes in the form of new types of walkers.

In regards to zombies in popular culture, such as Call of Duty and The Walking Dead, fans are well-acquainted with the concept of walkers, runners, and bloaters. Many of these variations are seen in The Walking Dead; however, in order to introduce diversity in gameplay, Flux Games has introduced a set of new Walkers. These unique Walkers, each with its own distinct behavior, have been exclusively created for the game to inject a fresh dynamic into combat.

The Walking Dead: Destinies promises to introduce new types of walkers, leaving fans eagerly anticipating how these additions will impact gameplay. The dedication to the show is crystal clear as the development team embarked on creating the game, realizing that it has been 13 years since the release of The Walking Dead: Season 1—a nostalgic surprise. Consequently, the team decided to prioritize maintaining the authenticity of the TWD universe. According to Santos, they opted for a direction that revisits the pivotal events from the show's early seasons, ensuring that every player is brought up to speed. While mostly adhering to the source material, the team also sprinkled in some minor elements for added intrigue.

The potential impact of these other minor elements is yet to be determined, but it is unlikely to diminish fans' affection for the show or the events of The Walking Dead: Destinies. In this installment, they have the opportunity to revisit the remarkable aspects that defined the show's early days, while pondering the possibilities of "What if this occurred in The Walking Dead?"

The Walking Dead: Destinies is scheduled to launch on November 14 for PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
