Gamers rejoice, Telltale Games has officially confirmed the release date for their next entry in their highly successful The Walking Dead series of episodic games. On Tuesday, March 28th, Episode Three: “Above the Law” will be available for gamers on Xbox One, PlayStation 4, Steam, iOS, and Android-based mobile devices.
***Spoilers Follow Read at Your Discretion***
This season of Telltale’s The Walking Dead follows the story of survivor Javier Garcia and so far focuses on his journey to save his family after they become separated early on in the initial episode. Along the way he comes across familiar faces such as Clementine, a character who was the focal point of the last two seasons, and Jesus, who serves as a cameo for comic readers and show watchers. This episode will focus on the group’s arrival in Richmond and their interactions with the New Frontier group of survivors and promises to be filled to the brim with powerful emotions and high stakes.
The initial release of The New Frontier came with two full episodes instead of Telltale’s usual one every few months. This move on Telltale’s part, along with the story being written in a way that doesn’t rely on the events of Seasons One and Two, has made this outing of the series especially welcoming to newcomers unfamiliar with the exploits of Lee and Clementine. The cameos made by the previously mentioned Clementine and Jesus also serve their roles well in the story so far since the only references to their more extended stories have been brief comments that don’t distract from the main plot. From the trailer, this episode seems to continue this trend with Jesus referencing the Kingdom, a group of survivors that fans of AMC’s television adaptation are currently exploring and that readers of Robert Kirkman’s comic series are also no doubt familiar with.
So far, The New Frontier, or “Season Three” as some fans are calling it, has done an excellent job of continuing to tour the dark and wildly messed up world of The Walking Dead based on Kirkman’s comics and of paying homage to previous entries in the series. Fans who have played these games since Telltale’s claim to fame with Season One will be fascinated by the character that Clementine has become since the initial moments of the very first episode. Events like losing her family, Lee’s death after a walker bite in the finale of Season One, and having to pick between Kenny and Jane in the finale of Season Two have shaped this incredibly well-written character into who she has become today. Clementine was a scared, little girl when we first met her, but she has become a hardened badass at this point in the story that adds layers of intrigue and gravitas to the already excellent story of this currently ongoing season.
Most avid fans of Telltale Games and their other highly successful games such as Tales from the Borderlands, Game of Thrones, and The Wolf Among Us know the drill at this point but to the uninitiated, here is what to do when Tuesday comes around and you want to play the new episode. If you bought the episodes individually, you’ll have to buy this new episode too (preferably on the same platform you played the first two episodes on). If you bought the disk version of The New Frontier or the season pass digitally, then all you need to do is launch the game on release day and the new episode should be there waiting desperately for you to play it. This is how Telltale’s episodic content usually works and is also the way The New Frontier works.
Enjoy the new story and happy zombie hunting!
In the ongoing conflict against the Automaton invasion fleet, the Helldivers 2 players have successfully halted their advance. However, the situation has now reached a tiresome stalemate. Yet again, the machines refuse to take a break from their relentless pursuit of progress, with reports emerging of the Factory Striders being deployed in record-breaking quantities.
There have been reports of alleged machines that were supposedly encountered during Operation Swift Disassembly, which was just the beginning of a larger campaign. However, these accounts should be taken with a grain of salt, as they are unverified and seem to be more on the imaginative side. Factory Striders have gained a reputation as formidable weapons platforms that can produce more Automatons while enduring significant damage. If the machines are able to withstand such a relentless assault, it will be necessary to develop innovative strategies.

Have you come across groups of Factory Striders in Helldivers 2? Which strategies are proving to be the most effective in taking down these armored brutes? The Orbital Railcannon Strike will prove to be a valuable asset in the comments section below.
The recent release of Amazon’s adaptation of Fallout has ignited a renewed interest in the series and brought attention to the captivating alternate history that forms its foundation. Fans have expressed concern that the TV show’s events might be at odds with the plot of the Obsidian Entertainment video game New Vegas. Warning: Spoilers ahead for New Vegas and Amazon’s show!
Bethesda Game Studios director Todd Howard and Fallout TV executive producer Jonathan Nolan recently sat down with IGN to discuss the timeline. Howard was taken aback when showrunners Graham Wagner and Geneva Robertson-Dworet presented him with the surprising concept of obliterating Shady Sands, the bustling capital of the New California Republic, in the aftermath of the events in New Vegas. Howard eventually warmed up to the idea: “After discussing it, we realized that this could be a significant story moment that many things hinge upon.”
It seems that they had to make some tough decisions to ensure everything fell into place, but Howard emphasizes the importance of preserving the integrity of the Fallout timeline: “We take great care with the timeline. There seems to be some confusion in certain areas. However, all the events from the previous games, including New Vegas, did occur. We take great caution in that matter. We’re really pushing the limits here, but the explosions occur right after the events of New Vegas.
What are your thoughts on this? Is it up to par? Even though it may not have a significant impact on the overall quality of the games or show, it is comforting to know that those in charge are paying attention. We value your feedback and would love to hear your thoughts in the comments section below.
If you’ve been keeping up with the new Fallout show on Amazon Prime, chances are you’ve been relying on PS Plus Extra and PS Plus Premium to access and enjoy one of Bethesda’s legendary RPGs. We decided to bypass the highly acclaimed Fallout New Vegas and Fallout 3, opting instead to explore the vast landscapes of West Virginia in Fallout 76. Infamous for its initial reception, Todd Howard’s “Fallout with Friends” has evolved significantly over the past six years. However, does that imply the game is of high quality? Is it worth playing in 2024?
As we ventured out of Vault 76 for the very first time, we were determined to find the answers to those burning questions. Recalling our escapades on the Push Square YouTube channel, we encountered quest-giving NPCs—a feature that was surprisingly absent upon release—awe-inspiring bases built by fellow players—and an abundance of loot that could easily burden us 76 times over.
In the midst of the vast array of open-world online experiences, we found ourselves quite enthralled by the combination of 50s classics playing in the background as we obliterated the heads of ghouls. And to top it off, we were able to enjoy all of this with our friends. Exploring the wasteland in the company of a ragtag band of survivors adds a unique element to Fallout 76, setting it apart from other games in the series. However, does it manage to prevent us from uninstalling and transitioning to one of the mainline entries in the series? To discover more, be sure to watch the complete video!
