The Walking Dead Ep 4 RELEASE DATES ARE OUT! PSN NA October 9th, PC/Mac/Xbox 10th!

[RafaelBrasileiro]

I think next week the Ep4 arrives, or at maximum in 2 weeks.

[savi]

Either way, can't wait much longer!

[PuhChewyChomp]

No Fn way episode 5 will be out by Dec. 4th. They're digging even deeper than I thought possible.

damn no update sense aug 29th this is bs

Re: the tweet..... It came from telltale games, so do you actually think that that date is solid?? Just sayin
With all my heart I pray they prove me wrong, but history tells a different tale.

[corruptbiggins]

I personally think episode 4 will be released within the next three weeks, and the final episode will be out by the end of November (so about 6 to 7 weeks after episode 4's release). Note that these dates give a time frame that is only about a week or so smaller than the time between the release of the previous episodes.

I just wish they would give one little update to let us know they are still alive!

Same. Last Tuesday on the poll. My true guess is the 23rd.

Still no news...but it's good to see TT making use of their reception towards episode 3:

A quote from their facebook page today, "For those who've been playing The Walking Dead: The Game, here's one last look back at Episode Three. News and updates on Episode Four 'Around Every Corner' coming VERY soon! Stay tuned, and if you'd like, vote for us or any of the other incredible nominees in the Golden Joysticks Awards!"

Sounds like more news is coming soon!

Im guessing October 10th.

[Zeruis]

So a release date for October? You don't say...I'm guessing that this was expected.

I think that's a good guess. When TTG says "very soon" that usually means another 2-3 weeks.

Also, look at the present blog post. This is looking VERY early October to me. But take a closer look at that post, because:

Telltale was announcing immediate information about the episode, not announcing an immediate release date announcement. So essentially, we know nothing. Still, I personally think that what is hilariously not said in there is factually meant: That episode is around the fucking corner.

Among the most questionable blog comments:

Well Wow October.. really!?.. What happened to releasing an episode each month. Don't get me wrong The walking dead game is epic!. But come on tellatale games. Episode 4 should be released today. I really don't want to fucking wait another month because yous are lazy. Episode 5 better be out the next month of episode 4. Stick to your god damn word. Oh yeah and if I was a game developer I would stick to my word and work my ass off to release it. On time!.. Fucking morons

See? READING COMPREHENSION is the problem of today's population. They obviously ARE working their asses off to get back as closely as possible to a monthly release, and this guy's just hallucinating around it instead of reading what's actually there. Time to ask Telltale for even less information?

Correct, there is no inherent marketing sense in releasing the retail disc later than the downloadable episode 5. There is a technical reason though. You have a fixed appointment with the printing press owner, like, print these DVDs on November 20th to 23rd, ship them out to retailers immediately so they'll be in the shops on the actual 4th.

There also has to be some wiggle room in these dates, so I'd rather assume the DVD printing would be earlier than 20th to 23rd. The validation of the digital versions does not take as long as the combined physical gold master programming, DVD manufacturing and distribution process. So it would be reasonable to assume that Telltale's aiming at mid November for episode 5. HOLDING BACK episode 5 to release LATER than retail however, I just can't picture that. Telltale hasn't got the time to hold anything back.

That's still all maybes and guesses though, I can't really ruin the release date guessing for that episode...

[Milosuperspesh]

we'll get an update within a week and in another week or 2 for the episode which of course will be out on xbox first hopefully pc/steam second, then psn last...

but pc first would be awesome :P

[lucidity02]

IGN apparently hosts some kind of live show called "Up By Noon" -- I think it actually just started for today a few minutes, and Gary Whitta's the guest. May be some good info on a release date in there and, at the very least, some solid episode four spoilage.

OMG kudos on another amazing episode. Some top notch work eliciting emotion and creating difficult decisions. Keep up the great work.

While as usual I can't wait for more, as we get closer to the end, I am getting nervous about withdrawal when it's over. You guys have no choice, you have to keep making these.
