More On: The Walking Dead The Walking Dead: Michonne

Telltale Games is taking it back to the game that changed everything for the adventure game company: The Walking Dead. On February 23—that's less than two weeks away—The Walking Dead: Michonne hits the scene. It's a three-part miniseries centering on Michonne from Robert Kirkman's best-selling comic books. The trilogy of episodes explores Michonne's absence between issues #126 and #139: why she left and why she came back. You must own at least one episode of The Walking Dead: Season 2 to play The Walking Dead: Michonne.

In Episode 1: In Too Deep, Michonne sails the coast for survivors and supplies. A signal draws her and the ship's crew to a signal. They find a nasty little massacre and possibly the person who massacred everyone.

Michonne is voiced by Samira Wiley who plays Poussey Washington in Netflix's Orange Is the New Black. I'm not certain how you pronounce Ms. Washington's first name. No idea.

I remember, however, getting all kinds of feels playing through that first season of The Walking Dead. It had me thinking about and rethinking my role as a dad to my then two-year-old daughter. And how my own Mom constantly warned me that seemingly no matter what I did, I was gonna die.

The Walking Dead: Michonne – A Telltale Miniseries, Episode 1: In Too Deep (geez, is that how we're doing this?) is out February 23 on everything. PC and Mac, Xbox One and Xbox 360, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, Android and iOS. Episode 2: Give No Shelter will be out in March. Then Episode 3: What We Deserve in April. Again, you have to have at least the first episode of The Walking Dead: Season 2 in order to play Michonne.

Telltale plays through a five-minute preview of the first episode at 8:30 p.m. (Eastern) this Sunday, February 14, Valentine's Day.

   

Today we can share release dates and all-new screens for the first of three episodes in The Walking Dead: Michonne - A Telltale Miniseries.

The Walking Dead: Michonne - A Telltale Miniseries will premiere its first of three episodes, 'In Too Deep,' this February 23rd on PC/Mac from the Telltale Online Store, Steam, and other digital distribution services, the PlayStation®Network for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3, the Xbox Games Store for Xbox One® and Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, followed by a release on compatible iOS devices via the App Store, and Android-based devices via Google Play and the Amazon App Store starting February 25th. The second episode in the miniseries, 'Give No Shelter,' will follow in the month of March, and conclude with the third episode, 'What We Deserve,' in April. All three episodes in the miniseries will be available for purchase at the cost of $14.99 USD or equivalent when the first episode debuts, including access to the second and third episodes as they become available.

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.

Ahead of its release, fans are invited to get an exclusive extended preview of the first episode of the series on Youtube.com/TelltaleGames this Sunday February 14th at 8:30pm EST / 5:30pm PST. The development team will introduce the series allowing fans to experience the first five minutes of the premiere episode, exploring Michonne's struggle to remain among the living while being haunted by her past.
