News: Telltale has begun teasing fans about the upcoming third episode in the current season as well as providing a release date for the retail version.

Telltale has revealed when you will be able to pick up The Walking Dead: A New Frontier at retail along with teasing us about episode three. Beginning February 28th at North American retailers, and March 3rd at European retailers, The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series - A New Frontier will be available for purchase on a special Season Pass Disc for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles. The season pass disc includes the critically acclaimed two-part premiere episodes, and grants access to all subsequent episodes in the five episode season for download as they become available.

When family is all you have left... how far will you go to protect it? Years after society was ripped apart by undead hands, pockets of civilization emerge from the chaos. But at what cost? Can the living be trusted on this new frontier? As Javier, a young man determined to protect his family, you meet a young girl who has experienced her own unimaginable loss. Her name is Clementine, and your fates are bound together in a story where every choice you make could be your last.

The Walking Dead: A New Frontier acts as both a new beginning for players fresh to the series and unfamiliar with Clementine, as well as a continuation for players who have experienced Seasons One and Two. Players new to the series are able to start a story that is tailored to this new beginning. Players continuing onward from prior seasons have multiple options for quickly configuring their tailored backstory, or importing past save files from various platforms.

Check out the new trailer below and tell us what you think. The third episode of the season will be out later this month. Have you been enjoying the third season of The Walking Dead?
