TIME TO BREAK OUT THE TISSUES! THE END IS HERE
After seven years, four main seasons and a whole heap of memories, the conclusion to Telltale Games’ The Walking Dead has finally arrived. This season, in particular, has endured plenty of highs and lows, with Skybound Games stepping in to save the series following Telltale’s closure late last year. And through all that, it’s overcome the odds to deliver a fitting finale to this treasured franchise.
The Final Season showcases a now-16-year-old Clem, following her continued attempts to raise young Alvin Jr amidst the harsh reality of a post-apocalyptic world. The Richmond area she left in A New Frontier is now a distant memory, and Clem and AJ’s quest for survival leads them to a former boarding school for troubled youths. They soon settle into their new group, but a hostile threat places everyone in jeopardy.
It’s typically standard fare, but the biggest difference from A New Frontier is that control has now reverted to Clementine. She’s the main playable character this time around, and it’s a welcome change from her previously limited focus. The core of the story, however, is largely centered on AJ. He’s now a curious youngster with a hot-headed mindset, and your goal is to shape his personality through your actions, ultimately influencing his decisions as the season wears on.
