Here's new gameplay footage.The Walking Dead: Season 3 will premiere on 20th December for PS4, Xbox One, PC, iOS and Android.
Unlike previous Telltale titles, The Walking Dead's third season will include a two-episode premiere with its first chapter, The Ties that Bind. Both episodes will launch on the same day.

A retail version of The Walking Dead: Season 3 will be available in February for PS4 and Xbox One, though it's likely it will only contain the early chapters on disc while the rest will require a download.
We learned earlier that The Walking Dead: Season 3 will let players import save data or simply select what happened to them, should they be switching to a new platform (as many are since the last season was released during the previous console generation).
Newcomers will have a default background story should they not wish to make choices about previous situations they know nothing about.
