After a short period of uncertainty due to Telltale Games’ sudden closure, The Walking Dead: The Final Season has now found a new home under the wing of Robert Kirkman’s Skybound Games. While Telltale was able to release the first two parts of the game’s final chapter earlier this year, the remaining episodes will now be released by Skybound in partnership with Epic Games, exclusively to the Epic Store for the PC.

Fortunately, players who purchased the season pass of The Walking Dead back when it was still under Telltale Games will still receive the remaining episodes on whichever platform they used to buy their pass, so there is no need to re-buy the game on Epic. On the other hand, console owners will still be able to purchase all future episodes on their respective platforms, but newcomers on the PC can only access the remaining installments via the Epic Store.

A few weeks ago, Skybound Games confirmed that the third episode of The Walking Dead: The Final Season is currently in development and will be released on January 15, 2019. Now, to give fans more information on the future of the game under Skybound, the studio has released a video featuring Clementine's voice actor Melissa Hutchinson answering some of the most frequently asked questions about The Walking Dead: The Final Season. 

In a statement released by president of interactive Dan Murray and Skybound Games CEO Ian Howe, it has been revealed that, “Epic stepped up to the plate immediately to work with us in order to bring the original team back together and ensure fans will receive the completed season of Telltale’s The Walking Dead: The Final Season.” While the game is already listed on the Epic Store, it is still unavailable to purchase, so there is still no information with regards to pricing.

Ever since Telltale Games shocked the gaming community when it laid off the majority of its staff, some people thought that Clementine’s story wouldn't see a proper closure. In a positive turn of events, Robert Kirkman’s Skybound Games was quick to rescue the doomed title saying that, “We can’t lose Andrew Lincoln (former star of AMC’s The Walking Dead) and Clementine in the same year.”

The Walking Dead: The Final Season Episode 3 is set to release on January 15, 2019.
