Walking Dead Creator Hints Another Popular Series Is Getting a AAA Video Game Adaptation

Video games are becoming part of the mainstream and we have seen this increase in recent years with a large number of crossovers.

The Last of Us and Fallout have been successfully adapted into TV shows, bringing them more popularity than ever.

As more and more properties crossover with different types of media, fans are loving all the ways they can enjoy their favorite characters.

We had the opportunity to speak with Skybound CEO David Alpert and co-founder Jon Goldman at Gamescom Latam, and they were happy to talk about future game crossovers.

Best known for comics, Skybound has since branched out to other entertainment platforms.

Its most popular IP is The Walking Dead, a comic book that was adapted into an award-winning TV series and games.

While The Walking Dead is one of Netflix’s most popular shows, the latest game, The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners, hasn’t had the same success.

As a VR game, there is a much smaller player base and it is not as popular as the Telltale series despite its quality.

That hasn’t stopped Skybound from adapting its comics into games, as the studio looks to hire more developers.

Goldman tells us: “There are leaks that we could be working on a big game.

“We are hiring people from the video game industry. So keep watching and supporting IP [Invincible]you will be rewarded.

Alpert adds: “A lot of video game talent recently joined Skybound to work on a really cool project.”

Invincible has already been adapted into an Amazon Prime animated series, but Skybound is also releasing a AAA game.
