TV/comic book tie-in The Walking Dead has reached one million downloads across PlayStation Network, Xbox Live and PC since its launch a fortnight ago.
As a result, Telltale Games confirmed that the zombie actioner has become the company’s fastest-selling title to date.
The Walking Dead is comprised of five episodes, the next of which, Starved for Help, is scheduled for release in June 2012.
Said Dan Connors, CEO of Telltale Games: "Premiering The Walking Dead game series to record numbers across so many diverse platforms is a tremendous achievement that shows the value of bringing strong storytelling and game play together.”
"The tailored narrative design puts gamers in control of their own story within the universe of The Walking Dead in a way that appeals equally to hardcore gamers and to more casual gamers who are fans of the franchise."
"The most exciting aspect of getting off to such a great start is that this is just the beginning of the five episode series. The Walking Dead fans are going to experience some really great moments in the months ahead that are uniquely influenced by the choices they make throughout the season."
