Clementine must be shaking again because The Walking Dead: The Final Season is almost here. Telltale Games announced the release date and the pre-order bonuses for the first chapter of the last season of this episodic saga. This is also the first game developed by the studio that utilises the new, up-to-date tools that the new company's CEO promises back in late 2017, and that means changes in visuals and gameplay.

More freedom and more control for the players is what's on the table, with a new over-the-should third-person camera, a world open for exploration, and combat that, for the first time, doesn't follow a script. Telltale is also changing the art style to a new one called Graphic Black to bring it closer to the comic books. On PS4, Xbox One and PC, 4K resolution and HDR will be supported.

Clementine has also changed. The little girl has grown into a leader who protects a community and is the one who cares for AJ, an orphaned boy. These final chapters in The Walking Dead series will ask players to make hard choices and then deal with the consequences. Players will be able to import data from previous games too. Also, a day one patch will add dubbed voices in French, German, Latin-American Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese, as well as subtitles in Italian, Russian and Chinese.

The first chapter of The Walking Dead: The Final Season comes to PS4, Xbox One and PC on August 14, and at a later date to Nintendo Switch, for $19.99 (or regional equivalent). It looks like old-gen consoles and mobile versions are not part of the immediate plan, at least not for the moment. Pre-orders open this week with a few benefits, most notably "immediate access to The Walking Dead: The Telltale Series Collection, which gathers all 19 existing episodes of the award-winning series into a single package."
