14 DAY TRIAL // The development team at Telltale Games and Sony announce that the undead powered episodic game series The Walking Dead will be launched on the PlayStation Vita handheld during 2013.
Don Mesa, director of product planning and platform software innovation at the publisher, tells IGN that, "Having like Telltale, a very successful indie developer, coming in to support us sends a strong message."
He adds, "We think that the emotion and the immersive experiences you're going to get there, wherever you're sitting, if you're in your living room and playing on your Vita or sitting at a café or at the bus stop and playing this, you get that shock or fright"
It is not yet known when The Walking Dead will be offered on the Vita and whether episodes will be launched at intervals or whether the entire package will represent just one sale.
Telltale has already announced that a second season will be launched later during 2013 on the PC and home consoles.
