AMC, Eyes Wide Games and Rock You today announced the launch of The Walking Dead Social Game, a narrative driven Facebook game based on the hit television series. You can get stuck into the open beta by heading here.

"The audience for AMC's 'The Walking Dead' are passionate and deeply interested in the world of the show. Our social game allows them to explore and experience the zombie apocalypse for themselves, along with their friends," said AMC's Mac McKean. 

"Gamers are ready for a more robust gameplay experience on Facebook," said Rock You's Josh Grant. "We're bringing a thrilling survival-horror game experience to a more social platform that both long-time gamers and fans new to the gaming space can enjoy."

The Walking Dead Social Game is the third title based on the award winning IP. Telltale Games has been enjoying success with their episodic adventures (based on the graphic novels, not the series) and an FPS based on the television show was also recently announced.
