The Walking Dead: Michonne – A Telltale Miniseries stars the iconic, blade-wielding character from Robert Kirkman’s best-selling comic books, portrayed in-game by award-winning actress Samira Wiley (Orange is the New Black). Haunted by her past and coping with unimaginable loss and regret, the story explores Michonne across a three episode miniseries event. Players will dive into the mind of Michonne to discover what took her away from Rick, Carl, and the rest of her trusted group… and what brought her back.
“At this midpoint in our exploration of an iconic character, players will get a substantial look at what past trauma hides behind Michonne’s often inscrutable exterior,” said Kevin Bruner, Co-Founder and CEO of Telltale Games. “Living a part of Michonne’s life through Telltale gameplay provides real insight into one of the most complex psyches in Robert Kirkman’s Walking Dead universe. With this as the backdrop to a tense pursuit that hurtles to a cliffhanger ending, we hope this episode leaves players excited for the conclusion coming next month.”
In this second episode, ‘Give No Shelter,’ a daring escape from the floating colony of Monroe sees Michonne, Pete, and Sam running for their lives. An all too brief reprieve is soon shattered; the leaders of Monroe don’t forgive and don’t forget. With memories of her daughters bleeding ever further into Michonne’s blurred reality, her world is becoming increasingly fractured… just at the point when she’ll need all of her skills to survive.
