News: Telltale Games will release Walking Dead DLC for current gen consoles as well as PC and Mac later this summer.

The Walking Dead from Telltale Games took the gaming world by storm last year. Some time has passed and Telltale Games is now ready to show off some downloadable content to what some outlets deemed the 2012 Game of the Year: The Walking Dead: Season One. Available this summer, The Walking Dead: 400 Days will be available for purchase on Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, PC, Mac and as an in-app purchase for compatible iOS devices.

The Walking Dead: 400 Days chronicles the horrific aftermath of the undead outbreak through the eyes of five new characters as they struggle to survive the first 400 days of the apocalypse. Playable in any order, the five connected short stories are centered in and around a Georgia truck stop, where players will be thrust into horrifying situations that will test their morals and control the flow of the story through their decisions and actions.

Additionally, it was revealed that The Walking Dead: Season One is coming to the PlayStation Vita and will include The Walking Dead: 400 Days. Featuring hybrid touch controls unique to PS Vita, fans can now take the apocalypse on the road and enjoy the entirety of Season One in one package.

“After the incredible response to the first season of The Walking Dead, we wanted to surprise fans with something that offers a new angle on the world they love that’s connected to Season One and the upcoming Season Two through the choices that they make,” said Dan Connors, Co-Founder and CEO of Telltale Games. “400 Days is a great piece of connective tissue for fans to sink their teeth into and we’re thrilled that it’s to be included on PlayStation Vita as part of Season One.”

The Walking Dead is set in the world of Robert Kirkman’s award-winning comic book series. Players experience life-changing events, meeting new characters and some familiar to fans of the comic book series, in events that foreshadow the story of Deputy Sheriff Rick Grimes. The Walking Dead offers an emotionally-charged, tailored game experience - a player’s actions and choices affect how their story plays out across the entire series.

The Walking Dead: 400 Days will be available for $4.99 or equivalent as downloadable content for The Walking Dead: Season One. The Walking Dead: 400 Days will require at least Episode One of Season One to be installed on a user’s game system in order to play. Are you excited for more Walking Dead content from Telltale Games?
