This is just the first of many flashbacks that are expertly used to fill in the gaps of the missing years since we last saw Clem as well as useful backstory for the Javier and Kate, who we next see driving down a lonesome highway with David’s kids, Gabe and Mariana…but no Dave. But family squabbles turn to survival when grandpa doesn’t want to stay dead. There is some immediate family tension communicated through brilliant storytelling and conversation prompts as well as hints of a secret attraction between Javier and David’s wife, Kate. Javier is an ex-baseball player, banned from the league for illegal gambling who is rushing home to be at his dying grandpa’s bedside. While Lee and Clem were sharing their first treehouse encounter we get to meet Javier, his brother David, and the rest of the Garcia family.

I’m sure most gamers were expecting to start off as Clem and immediately catchup, but instead we are taken back to zero day when the zombie virus began. In many ways The Walking Dead: A New Frontier is more reboot than sequel.

Not only will this directly influence key events and playable flashbacks, it also serves as a nice refresher for those who haven’t played this series since 2014. Personally, I had to opt for the “Recreate” option where I was asked ten pertinent questions that covered key events from the first two games.

Even so, A New Frontier will build off your choices from the previous games if you’re a packrat and still have those files on your system. While Season 2 was more of a direct continuation from the first, many years have gone by since we last saw Clem and a lot has changed. After two years we finally get our third season of Telltale’s Walking Dead adventure game, and I have to admit, this latest installment kicks off with a bang and looks like it will easily live up to our expectations.
