The Walking Dead: Michonne mini-series game will slay walkers on Feb. 25

Developer Telltale Games will give fans of The Walking Dead comic book another entry in its episodic game series Feb. 25 with The Walking Dead: Michonne. The first part of the three-part series will be released on that date for Android via Google Play and the Amazon Appstore.

Telltale says:

"In this premiere episode, 'In Too Deep,' Michonne joins Pete and his crew on the sailing ship The Companion as they cruise the coast for survivors and supplies. When a desperate signal for help draws them to a scene of horrific massacre, Michonne and the crew are lead further to the floating survivors' colony of Monroe, which may just be harboring the person responsible for the carnage.""The Walking Dead: Michonne - A Telltale Miniseries stars the iconic, blade-wielding character from Robert Kirkman's best-selling comic books, portrayed in-game by award-winning actress Samira Wiley (Orange is the New Black). Haunted by her past, and coping with unimaginable loss and regret, the story explores Michonne's absence between issues #126 and #139 of the comic book. Over the three episodes of the miniseries, players will discover what took Michonne away from Rick, Ezekiel, and the rest of her trusted group... and what brought her back."

The second episode of the series will be released in March and the final part will be launched in April. Telltale will stream the first five minutes of the first episode on Feb. 14 on its YouTube channel starting at 8:30 p.m. Eastern time.
