New Character Introduced for OVERKILL's The Walking Dead

Starbreeze, Skybound Entertainment and 505 Games have unveiled another new character for OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead. His name is Grant, and he is the third playable hero from developer OVERKILL – A Starbreeze Studio’s upcoming co-op FPS.

Of all the survivors unveiled so far he may be the best prepared for the apocalypse – a steely outdoorsman who left city life behind to live out his golden years in the wilderness with his trusty scoped rifle. But as we find him back in Washington, D.C., searching for his lost family, it’s clear that while the world may have changed, the hunt is the same.

Ok, so you’ve seen the information on the new character, and watched the video, but you may be one of the few who may not know what this game is about.  Well, let us explain. It is inspired by the gruesome action of Robert Kirkman’s original graphic novels,. The game is a four-player cooperative multiplayer shooter in which players band together on a variety of missions and raids to find survivors, secure supplies and stay alive in a world where both the living and dead are a threat. Use stealth tactics to evade enemies quietly, or dismember walkers limb from limb with brute force and firepower. Each playable character has their own special abilities, skill trees, squad roles, play styles and background stories, including the heavy-hitting Aidan and Maya, the surgeon turned survivor.

So there you have it folks, as you are up to date on what is new in the upcoming OVERSKILL’s The Walking Dead.
