Telltale Looking for Companies to Hire The Walking Dead Staff to Finish the Game

The last time we received an update from Telltale Games with regards to The Walking Dead, they said they are currently looking at options to try and finish development on the remaining two episodes of the series. Now, we have more information as to what that means.

A report from Kotaku states that Telltale is negotiating with other companies to complete development on The Walking Dead: Final Season using former members of their workforce. The report quotes anonymous sources said to be involved in the negotiations.

Reportedly, work on the third episode of the final season was nearly completed at the time of the studio’s majority closure, with work on the fourth and final episode just beginning. Ideally, the sources say, the entire original development team would return, but as former Telltale workers are seeking other employment, the negotiations are time-sensitive as a result.

The end result of any potential deal would have this separate company bringing former Telltale employees on a contract basis. Funds would come from this other company for development rather than Telltale Games, which otherwise could have been used to provide severance that they did not provide to their former employees.

For now, it appears that there truly is still a chance that it might pop up. We just have to hope for the best. If it suddenly appears on online distributors like Steam again, then there’s a good chance it will finish up after all.

Pokdepinion: After the awesomeness that is the second episode, I really hope they manage to finish up the remaining two episodes. I need to know the end of Clementine’s story, then I can kiss the series goodbye, once and for all. What about you guys?
