Can the living be trusted on this new frontier? As Javier, a young man determined to find the family taken from him, you meet a young girl who has experienced her own unimaginable loss.

Telltale The Walking Dead: Season Three Details
During an announcement at the developers PAX panel, it was confirmed that the upcoming season will begin a few years after where Season Twoof the series left off. This third season will focus on protagonist Clementine and a new character named Javier as they wade once more into the zombie apocalypse in search of food, sanctuary, and hope.
Telltale Games executive producer elaborated on the relationship between these two characters by revealing that a prominent subplot in the game will revolve around Javier trying to uncover the details of Clementines unfortunate past. The pair share many personality similarities due to their similar backgrounds, but appear to be separated somewhat by their survival abilities. Indeed, its interesting to see Clementine take on the role of post-apocalyptic protector after having witnessed father figure Lee take on that role in the first Walking Dead season. Fans will be able to play as both Clementine and Javier at various points in The Walking Dead: Season Three.
Those that love and/or hate the Telltale formula can also expect The Walking Dead: Season Three to retain many of the developers trademark elements. Telltale recently confirmed that it currently has no plans of altering the studios choice-based gameplay design in any significant way. The recently released first episode of Batman proved there is still some storytelling life left in the formula, but it remains to be seen if the aging Walking Dead franchise can still effectively utilize that design to provide something great.
