Skybound Tweeted: TQ is saying how the series has been working toward having an actual payable character from the comic universe.
Skybound Tweeted: Michonne heads into confrontation with walkers. She doesn't hide or shy away like Clem or Lee. So it's a different dynamic.
Skybound Tweeted: Sean is saying how story-wise it's a chance to fill in the gaps and also expand the universe.
Skybound Tweeted: TQ says Sean told them "this is michonne, don't F it up."
Skybound Tweeted: Showing concept art from the game. "This is Michonne out there on her own at her lowest. She is bereft."
Skybound Tweeted: Coming late this fall.
Skybound Tweeted (during Fan Q&A): Since Michonne is an action character, will gameplay mechanics change? It will require more action. You will be pleasantly surprised.
Skybound Tweeted (during Fan Q&A): Why is Michonne using a machete? Michonne doesn't have her sword during this time period.

Comments
As this E3 announcement will be big news we have decided to make a separate thread to discuss it and leave the other thread specifically for Season 3.
If this announcement is for is DLC this thread will likely become the DLC waiting thread.
Not long to go now
Im so excited!
Ok ozzy im gonna ask ya what do you think this dlc is gonna be about i know ur not telltale staff ur a fan like any other forum user but im curious of ur creative minded theory on what this dlc could be
Wolf among us season 2 though
Um was wolf among us good? so far i have only played walking dead season 1 and 400 days dlc and season 2 and most of season 1 of sam and max but i have never tried wolf among us so im not really sure if its good
but anyways
um whats ur theory on what this dlc will be about i would love to hear ur creative theory
It's hard to say but maybe it will connect all the endings to season 2 so that we all start season 3 at around the same place or maybe it will introduce some major characters for season 3.
I guess we don't have to wait too much longer
would u be ok with the dlc having nothing to do with season 3 but still having quality characters and great storyline and overall a good dlc just curious
I think ill be a 800 days dlc
I guess having a backstory to the cabin survivors, Carver or what happened during the time skip could be fun but i don't think they would use this possible DLC to tell a random unconnected story.
Well, this is exciting. Might as well see what kind of announcement they make.
Yes, the wolf among us is amazing I've played the whole thing and it was brilliant from start to finish on every episode. I think you should try it, you'll might think it's interesting!
Can't wait to see what direction they take with the DLC (?), particularly if it's more than just one episode or not.
Still holding out hope for Lily storyline that catches up on what happened after she took off in the camper and then have that story converge into Season 3. Lily was fierce so she could have ended up in a strong group, possibly as a leader of sorts, and could make a good antagonist opposite a grown up Clem.
Can you give us the timer for exactly time?I mean i want to know for eest when it's going to happen.
I really hope they don't backtrack on dead-end stories.
Yeah im fine with a dlc like that sure it wont effect s3 in the long run but as long as its a good dlc i will buy it
List of worldwide time zones.
No, I meant that the DLC would go back and cover what Lily has been doing up until the present day, and then Season 3's storyline would be about Clem - now also in the present day - crossing paths with Lily. I absolutely want the DLC to tie in with Season 3 and not just be a standalone thing.
I have it in my head that Lily will eventually find a new group and since she has such a strong character she won't like how they run things, and will start to impose her will and ways onto them. BUT because she's also intelligent and ruthless she will help the group survive and grow to be a known force. A small society, with strong walls and resources. However her ruthlessness will not foster a happy community and will cause division. Some think her methods are too brutal, others adamantly stand by her side.
That is where Clem comes in (now season 3) for whatever reason. Possibly because she meets some of the defectors who inform Clem of the resources and security Lily's group has, and then she works with them to take it back.
Ok im fine with lilly returning since i liked her as a character so yeah i get ya it could work
Finally news!!!!
Hi dude!
Yeah as long as it's not a standalone story, I'm cool. They were along the right lines with the 400 days DLC but those characters were so insignificant to Season 2 that it was kind of pointless, which was predictable really considering how many multiple endings it had. Something with a tighter ending to segue into Season 3 to allow significant, meaningful story to flow from would be awesome!
OK,I just need to be patient.Hopefully.
YES!
New thread!
So AMAZING AND FABULOUS * _ *
TWAU is good, TFTB is also good so far and GOT is also good so far.
They should at least do more than 5 episodes and actually take time to write a plot without making everything the same.
What? This isn't even supposed to be a full Season - I can't see why we would get something larger than a typical Season for something smaller than Season 3.
i propose a new thread in celebration of it's release...a food pic thread ;D...runs for cover....
looking forward to the annoucement ))) i hope this is on ps3 aswell as ps4
I don't know, i don't think i even care anymore. Will i buy it, sure. Am i excited as horses to get it.
Not really , no.
From where Season 2 is, it's always one hour. And not that much development of Clementine. Clementine's choices never affected that much except for dialogues. She will still be friends with Kenny, in the Carver place with Jane, or alone with the baby. I said more than 5 so they can develop more on the characters and maybe a side story episode that leads to where everyone is as of now. They can just release other games while working on Walking Dead so Walking Dead will have a better season.
Technically an hour and a half, not one hour. But still, Telltale has used longer episodes for their newer series anyways ranging from 2 hours to 2 and a half hours.
I know what you mean there
