Archief - The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct

A quick, moderately embarrassing update: it turns out yesterday’s trailer for Terminal Reality’s shooter The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct wasn’t an official Activision production.

The publisher confirmed with GiantBomb that it’s a fan edit put together from bits and pieces of an in-development build shown to IGN.

The hosting YouTube channel is not officially affiliated with the game, either. I should have twigged to that. It’s a fair cop, gov. On the bright side, the trailer has had a lukewarm reception, to put it politely, so knowing it’s not the real deal is somewhat comforting.

Sorry hoor maar wtf is dit???
Zelfs half life 2 ziet er grafisch nog steeds beter uit na 10jaar.

Activision confirms Survival Instincts game based on AMC TV show coming to Nintendo's new system in March using GamePad to manage inventory.


The Walking Dead: Survival Instincts is aiming for release on Wii U. Producer Glenn Gamble confirmed with Digital Spy that the zombie shooter is in development for Nintendo's first high-definition console, though it was not always in the cards.

"We were over halfway through the project when the Wii U thing started coming about," Gamble said. "We didn't want to change the game, because the game had already been established, so we tried to say, 'What can we augment with the Wii U version?'"

Gamble further explained that the Wii U GamePad will be used in Survival Instincts as a "more elegant" inventory management system.

"With the Wii U you have access to your backpack at all times, so you can tap what weapons you want, you can drop stuff," he said. "It's a lot more streamlined."

In addition to confirming a Wii U version of Survival Instincts, it was also announced today that the game will arrive on store shelves in the United Kingdom Friday, March 29. Games typically release the Tuesday before in the United States, meaning Survival Instincts is expected to arrive stateside on March 26.

Survival Instincts was announced in July 2012 and is based on AMC's The Walking Dead TV series. It will be set in rural Georgia and focus on brothers Daryl and Merle Dixon. Players will be able to choose whether to confront the undead head-on or attempt to avoid detection.

The game is also currently in development for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC at Terminal Reality.

Lijkt mij wel typisch Activision... Walking Dead van TellTale doet het goed uit het niets, de serie heeft succes en hup: ze maken een full priced retail-game die waarschijnlijk nog niet in de schaduw mag staan van de briljante downloadbare versie. En voor wat? Een paar extra centen natuurlijk. K'heb echt grote twijfels bij dit spel
