Ares Interactive and AMC have announced that their free-to-play roguelite mobile title The Walking Dead: Aftermath is now open for pre-registration. Players who secure their spot before launch will add T-Dog to their roster, a rare gear piece, and additional resources. The game will launch on the App Store and Google Play later this summer, with additional platforms to be announced at a later date.
Developed by Ares’ Swift Games, the studio behind the hit mobile title Heroes vs Hordes, in The Walking Dead: Aftermath, players will step into the shoes of iconic survivors from The Walking Dead Universe, including Rick Grimes, Daryl Dixon, and Michonne, as they fight to survive against relentless walker herds, hostile enemies, and powerful bosses. Aftermath combines “high-intensity” roguelite action with survivor strategy and base-building meta-progression, challenging players to adapt, scavenge, and fight to stay alive.
The journey spans increasingly harrowing campaign chapters set across the franchise’s most iconic locations, from the deceptive peace of Hershel’s Farm and the fortified streets of Woodbury to the haunting remains of Terminus to the Alexandria Safe-Zone.
When the fighting stops, players must retreat to their Base Camp to fortify their community and ensure long-term survival. There, players will be able to do the following:
- Forge Survivor Bonds: Unlock additional characters and exclusive progression bonuses. Assigning them to specific camp roles unlocks vital production synergies and enhances overall community effectiveness.
- Secure the Perimeter: Construct and upgrade defensive structures, such as watchtowers and walls, to safeguard the settlement.
- Generate Critical Resources: Manage farms, scrapyards, and lumber mills to produce the supplies necessary for expansion.
- Arsenal Progression: Permanently improve weapons, armor, and survivor attributes using scavenged materials.
The Walking Dead: Aftermath will also feature a robust live-service, delivering regular content updates, new storylines, new characters, and limited-time events.
