Is a Walking Dead Videoame About to Be Announced?

A videogame based on the comic book and television series The Walking Dead may be in the works by a veteran adventure game developer.

According to an invitation we received Wednesday, Sam&Max and Back to the Future episodic game developer Telltale will be announcing five new multi-platform projects during a formal event in San Francisco on Thursday, February 17. Among them, says the invitation, is"one based on a just-launched property from the TV and comic book world whose popularity is changing life as some know it."

The Walking Dead television show, based on the Image Comics series, launched on AMC last October, fitting the vague description admirably. Admittedly we have no actual evidence to support this theory, though the series -- which often focuses on human interactions over zombie killing -- fits Telltale's style of games rather well.

We'll report back if and when we learn more.
