For those of you who haven’t finished Telltale’s The Walking Dead, you better hurry up. The Walking Dead: 400 Days is a single season episode that will bridge the gap between seasons 1 and seasons 2, delivering 5 all new stories to devour along the way. The events of The Walking Dead: 400 Days will play out between 5 new characters over 400 days. Each character will have their own separate story to tell that can be played in any order. Just like the decisions made through season 1 of The Walking Dead affected subsequent episodes, decisions made in The Walking Dead: 400 Days will affect season 2. Although players do not have to have played or completed season 1, Telltale recommends that they do so first.

The Walking Dead is one of those rare games that comes along and manages to captivate the player fully engrossing them into the story. This DLC was one of the games I got to see demoed at E3 and from what little they offered, it was awesome. I’ve said this once, and I’ll say it again: If you haven’t played Telltale’s The Walking Dead, your missing out on something truly great.
