IT'S TIME TO ESCAPE THE WALKING DEAD

PRISONERS, You've escaped from our best efforts to keep you locked up, you've broken free from America's most notorious prison, you've even built a tank to bust out of a military POW camp. You think you're hot stuff. But it's not over yet. Today, we unveiled The Escapists The Walking Dead - a new game in The Escapists series developed by Team17 in partnership with Skybound Entertainment, creators of The Walking Dead comic book series. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXN9ivXHdAk The Escapists The Walking Dead sees you wake up in Harrison Memorial Hospital as Rick Grimes. You'll escape the horror unfolding there using familiar methods - craft gear to create escape routes and construct weapons to defend yourself from the flesh-eating horde. You'll also need to learn some new tricks, including the use of ranged weapons for the first time in The Escapists! Later, Rick will take charge of a band of survivors featuring many of the original The Walking Dead comic book cast. He must secure the safety of the group by seeking out an escape route in each of the game's areas and manage several dangerous tasks to keep as many of the group alive as possible. The Escapists The Walking Dead faithfully matches the timeline of the comics and so, as you make progress in the game, you play through locations that mirror the progress of the band of survivors taken from the award winning comic's epic story.

The Escapists provides the opportunity of experiencing a light-hearted insight into everyday prison life and, as is the case with all inmates, the main objective is escape! While under the careful watch of the guards, players will need to go about their daily duties clandestinely secreting useful objects from under their captors’ noses. Potential escapees will learn how to craft seemingly innocuous items into useful tools and even weapons as well as using them to execute cunning diversionary tactics.

Players will need to learn when to keep in line, utilising their time sensibly as they develop their own personal plans of escape. Learning the prison’s daily routines and spotting opportunities are all part of life behind bars. Working out potential routes and even misdirecting guards soon become second nature.

Whilst remembering to attend roll-call, holding down their job and keeping their fellow inmates on side, players are can also benefit from advancing their character's statistics through various means including boosting their intellect and exercising regularly. Balance mundane routine with careful planning to attain your ultimate goal - escape and freedom!
