The Walking Dead to continue ahead of second season

TellTale Games won't leave you hanging out for more episodes of The Walking Dead, promising new content before the second season debuts.

Speaking to IGN, TellTale writer Gary Whitta said the developer doesn't want fans to suffer in the interim.

"I can tell you what you already know, which is season two is coming. There’s not much to say because it really is very early. It’s a way off," he said.

"But, knowing that it’s a way off, and knowing that people are hungry for more Walking Dead - there may very well be more Walking Dead from Telltale before season two. We may have a little something extra for you between season one and two."

Whitta wouldn't give further details but said TellTale is working on something "that will make the wait for season two slightly less agonising."

The Walking Dead's first season sold strongly and nabbed a number of awards. The second season is not expected for quite some time, and TellTale has turned some of its attention to an adaptation of the comic Fables.
