Speaking at SXSW, The Walking Dead creator Robert Kirkman was able to share a few new details about the upcoming online co-op game developed by Overkill, titled Overkill’s The Walking Dead.

Kirkman explained that the game will be heavily inspired by Overkill’s former hit, Payday 2. “It will be Payday-esque. I’m told it will be in a bigger world than Payday currently encompasses. They are going to be learning a lot of stuff from Payday that they will be incorporating into The Walking Dead game,” he said.

“Payday is an online cooperative game correct? Yes. So it will be it will follow a similar approach. That’s good news,” Kirkman concluded.

The comics creator also mentioned that more info was going to be revealed soon. In the meantime, however, all we fans can do is wait in our mountains of speculation for whatever news may be coming.
