Telltale's The Walking Dead ended in a cliffhanger, leaving us all guessing at what the future of the franchise holds. Telltale co-founder Dan Connor recently told IGN that he's been thinking the same thing, and that the developer is cultivating a story for Season 2.
"We've announced that we're doing a second season of The Walking Dead. That's going to be a big part of what we're putting people to work on this year," says Connor. "Right now it's about figuring out the right way to approach the story, the right way to handle this that's going to work for what we're trying to accomplish and give it legs."
He continued, "We believe there are more stories to tell in The Walking Dead's universe. The show continues to be huge. People understand what we're doing. We're going to continue to work on it. It's a rich world for what we're trying to do. We still have a lot of ideas to explore in that world."
Connor also expressed concern regarding Activision's upcoming The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct, a first-person game based on the popular AMC television show:
"I'm always happy to see the world enriched. I'm a little worried about it because of the chance of our customers being confused about which product is which. But it's happening. There's not much we can do about it."
Based on the original Walking Dead comic book series, Connor says the luxury of creator Robert Kirkman's support enhanced the game's development.
"We were glad to get in on Walking Dead when we did," Connor said. "We released a strong product that was well-timed and that worked really well. We had the support of Robert Kirkman and his team. That's been great. We feel like we're going to do something with season two of The Walking Dead that's going to be special. It's going to be unique. It's going to be a Telltale series, obviously."
