Telltale announced today that A New Frontier, the third season of its The Walking Dead series, will premiere worldwide on December 20th.
That day, episode one will be available for purchase digitally for $4.99 on PC, Xbox One, PS4, Xbox 360, PS3, iOS, and Android. A Season Pass containing access to all five episodes of the season as they’re released will cost $24.99.
For players who prefer a physical copy, on February 7, 2017, Telltale will release a Season Pass disc containing the first episode and access to episodes 2-5 as they’re released. The disc will be available for Xbox One and PS4 for $29.99 and is currently available for pre-order.
Telltale also revealed new art from A New Frontier, which you can check out below:
A New Frontier once again stars returning favorite Clementine, as well as a new character named Javier, “a young man determined to find the family taken from him.” Telltale revealed the first details of the new season back at E3, followed by the first poster at Comic-Con and the official title at PAX. Fans will be able to get their first look at extended gameplay at The Game Awards next week.
This is the third full season of Telltale’s The Walking Dead, following the IGN Game of the Year-nominated first season in 2012 and second season in 2013. Telltale also released a one-off episode titled The 400 Days in 2013, and a spinoff miniseries focused on Michonne earlier this year.
