#TELLTALE GAMES WEBSITE CLOSING DOWN SERIES#
In the six-plus years since its release, the series has spanned over four seasons (and one spinoff miniseries centered on fan-favorite Walking Dead character Michonne) and over 20 episodes. Originally launched in 2012, Telltale’s The Walking Dead is a narrative adventure game released in episodic chapters that make up seasons, similar to a television show’s format. “I think everyone assumed at that point that we were done,” Brodie Anderson, executive producer of Telltale’s The Walking Dead: The Final Season, tells The Hollywood Reporter. As a result, the fate of Telltale’s upcoming titles (which included partnerships with Netflix on a Stranger Things game and an interactive media project based on the Minecraft franchise, as well as the final season of its hit licensed franchise, The Walking Dead) was up in the air. Fans, media outlets and other developers coped with the fact that one of the most celebrated studios in the industry was shuttering. The announcement came as a shock for those in the building and outside it. On September 21, 2018, the roughly 250 employees of video game developer Telltale Games were delivered news that every developer dreads to hear: the studio was shutting down.
