Overkill's The Walking Dead will likely be like Payday, but within a bigger world
The upcoming Walking Dead game in development from your studio behind Payday: The Heist would include cooperative online gameplay and stay "Payday-esque," said The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman for a SXSW panel today."I know that it is going to be Payday-esque because [Starbreeze and Overkill] are presently doing Payday," Kirkman said. "But I'm told it will probably be in a larger world than Payday currently encompasses. They are usually learning a great deal of stuff from Payday that they will likely be incorporating into The Kronos III Gold Walking Dead game."There is going to be announcements about this game in the near future."Overkill's The Walking Dead was announced by Starbreeze in?August, 2014 having a teaser trailer but little is said concerning the game since.In an onstage fireside talk to me during SXSW, entitled "Creator Activism: A Discussion with Robert Kirkman," the person behind the comic and television shows declared one reason Skybound has experienced such success together with the video games depending on their properties is simply because they're not marketing tools.
"One thing that we're doing, which I think is extremely cool regarding the Telltale game along with the Starbreeze game and Air game is they are common licensed games, and licensed games are often somewhat crappy, but thankfully our's aren't," he was quoted saying. "The key I think, which can be quite important, is we're not doing, 'Hey, it's Daryl Dixon caught shooting zombies, when you like Daryl Dixon.' Or 'It's Rick Grimes doing this since you like Rick Grimes.' We're telling our personal stories and doing each of our things almost as as long as they are original games."Take as an example Air,?the upcoming movie co-written and directed by Chris Cantamessa. It carries a game that will need place inside same universe, but won't feature exactly the same characters and contains it's story and access point."So as an alternative to like it like a derivative experience, where you style of enjoyed a film so you're playing a game also it's much less good because movie and there exists some lame things concerning this, we're carrying out a thing which is its own experience that stands by itself as a very nice game, as an alternative to a licensing barnacle to the present popular movie," Kirkman said. "That's one thing we try to accomplish with all of our own things. Try to come up that has a way making it exist rolling around in its own right, in contrast to cashing in about the success of The Walking Dead or whatever were doing."
Another important element to Skybound's successes so far is they don't make an effort to tie the release with the games to any kind of schedule for the initial product.Games have room to breathe and time and energy to turn into wonderful, standalone creations, he was quoted saying."With most licensed games, the corporation looks at becoming a marketing tool and not really a game, plus the release date is determined in stone," he stated. "The marketing for the action is marketing for that thing, and the overall game is meant to build brand awareness. So those release dates are from stone."Most licensed games involve some lackluster element to them as it's like, 'You have heading to this date, sorry,'" he explained. "We'll just push things back and produce it good."As the panel wrapped up, Kirkman responded into a question through the audience about Overkill's The Walking Dead and cooperative online play."I think it's pretty safe to say how the Starbreeze game is going to be online and interactive," he explained. "It is [safe to express] plus it is [online] and that i just said hello."Payday is definitely an online cooperative game correct? Yes," he was quoted saying. "So it will likely be it will follow a comparable approach. That's very good news."
