The Walking Dead in augmented reality
Whilst we wait for the arrival of season 9 of our favorite zombie series (when? Possibly for the end of October 2018), we can keep ourselves amused with the different mobile games based on this TV phenomenon developed by AMC.
Titles of the likes of Season One, No Man’s Land, and Road to Survival now have a new companion with this The Walking Dead: Our World in which we can get all hyped up fighting to survive the hordes of walkers with characters of the likes of Rick, Daryl or Michonne, now in APK format.
A Pokémon GO full of walkers.
But the greatest difference of this Our World regarding other zombie games is its augmented reality component. Just like in Pokémon GO, we'll land on a map and set out to walk around town shooting at zombies left and right or directly chopping their heads off with our katana. If you thought catching Pikachus was rather geeky, wait until you see a group of thirty-year-olds gathered to kill the undead.
