Overkill's The Walking Dead is your next Zombie-survival fix and it releases in November for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. It is based on The Walking Dead universe and sees four players fight the living and the dead in a post-apocalyptic Washington D.C.
The game recently received criticism for its "stiff animations" and "clunky combat" shown in the E3 internal demo, but the developer, OVERKILL, explained in a Reddit AMA that the demo's focus was on "gameplay first" and making sure the game was "fun." The development team was now working on polishing the game and "making it prettier."
"We will showcase more of the game in the months leading up to release to show you our progress," explains Saul Gascon, the executive producer. "At Overkill we develop with a “gameplay first” methodology, which means that first and foremost we make it fun. We saw at E3 that people had a blast.
Now we are working on polishing and making it prettier, for example adding and improving animations. It’s an ongoing work. In addition, the gameplay you’ve seen so far is in 1080p where the game will support increased resolutions."
