Telltale has revealed a few new details about the forthcoming Walking Dead Game. While we're still waiting on information on gameplay and what the game will look like, Telltale did spill the beans on some aspects of the story and the general tone of the game, as well as a few pieces of concept art.

The Walking Dead will not be telling the same story as the comics or television show, but will instead focus on an original new main character. Even though the story's not centered around them, certain characters and locations from the comics will make appearances in the game as touchstones to keep the two connected. Lee Everett is a convict who's being taken to prison when the zombie outbreak begins. After the police car he's riding in crashes, he's able to escape, and is trying to get out of Atlanta at about the same time Rick Grimes, the main character from the comic, is on his way there.In his quest to survive the madness, Lee will encounter a 7-year-old girl named Clementine who's left by herself. Lee will decide to take her with him, thus forcing him to think less of his own survival and more about the survival of Clementine, and the human race as a whole.Telltale said this human element will be a main theme of the game, setting up emotional moments in choices that are made away from the madness of zombie fighting, which means if you were looking for a Left 4 Dead-style experience, you're not going to get it in the Walking Dead
