The Walking Dead FPS announced by Activision

Activision has revealed a first-person shooter take on The Walking Dead is in the works.

Developed by Terminal Reality, the game will be based on the AMC television series as opposed to the comic (which Telltale’s adventure series is centered around).

Players control Daryl and Merle Dixon on a ‘haunting, unforgiving quest to make their way to the supposed safety of Atlanta’ that serves as a prequel to the show.

The game is due out in 2013 on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.
