Following Telltale's demise, some of its existing projects continue to live on through Skybound Games. The company recently issued an update on its website, revealing "a ton" of logistical and legal issues have finally been sorted out and development on The Walking Dead: The Final Season has officially started up again. Here's the full statement:
Thank you for your patience while we worked with Telltale to take control of TELLTALE’S THE WALKING DEAD. It’s been a ton of work logistically and legally to get us to a place where we’re able to roll up our sleeves and get to the actual work. After Telltale had to stop development on The Walking Dead, the game was, unfortunately, unable to be worked on and hence the release dates of Episodes 3 and 4 have been delayed. But, we’re excited to let you know that many of the talented, passionate team members who originally worked on the game are resuming development efforts today!
The news only got better as it was revealed a release date announcement for the remaining two episodes is on the way and the confirmation that users who already purchased season four won't have to pay again for it. These future episodes will be available to download as soon as they are released from the original point of purchase.
Now that we know Skybound is in control and former Telltale team members are back on board are you at all interested in playing episode three and four of the final season? Tell us below.

My mind thought this was talking about the AMC series at first for reasons.
Also, swell dat the remaining episodes are going to rev up after all!
Glad to see the fans can finish the series!
This is some great news. It’s rare in situations like these for games to be finished, with most being cancelled, sold and then rebooted. To be able to finish the original story with the original team despite all that’s happened is a rarity and great news indeed.
I still need to catch up on Seasons 2 and 3 when I get the time but I’m glad the episodes are coming nonetheless
The Walking Dead Final Season is indeed walking while dead.
I'm so glad that many of the original developers are back! While it doesn't excuse Telltale's awful treatment of their employees before closing down, it's good to hear that at least some of them have managed to keep working. Hopefully they can produce a quality product to finish the series on a high note after all this imbroglio.
Hopefully the developers will actually get paid decently for this.
Would it be back in the eshop someday ? Also are we still getting season 2 and 3 on switch ?
That just goes to show that you just can't keep a good zombie down...
Zombie killing is and will always be a passion of mine. And zombies always sell.
The walking dead final season is back on Eshop
If we buy it what episode do we get 1 and 2?
then episode 3 comming 15 January 2019 for switch?
