Telltale's The Walking Dead Season 3 Will Return In 2016
Speaking with Mashable, Telltale has confirmed that The Walking Dead Season 3 is in development and on the way. We learn more later this year, but the big news is that at least one episode will be out in 2016.
Because many players have upgraded or otherwise switched platforms, Telltale recognizes that it needs to improve its save porting. Choice is important in Telltale games, and having to replay earlier seasons on new platforms to get things just right is a bit of a drag.
Thankfully, a solution might be on the way. "We've got a strategy to help Season 3 players ... collect all their data from the previous games,” CEO Kevin Bruner told Mashable. “[W]e didn't have the cloud services in Season 1 that we have now. So we're going to have a solution for everybody that we're not talking about it yet."

Telltale has been pulling out all stops and has a buffet of projects coming out this year. The real question now is can they keep up with the workload and continue to release episodes in a timely manner.
And the bigger question is, can they follow up on the harrowing events of Season 2 to the standards we expect of them?
