The upcoming co-op first-person shooter from Overkill based on The Walking Dead is due sometime late next year. Today we've got the first character reveal of the four-player title - Aidan. And usually we're not big fans of cinematic-only trailers but this one is definitely impressive.

In that the character, world, and detail is through the roof. Which makes us think that this might just be something to look out for.

Inspired by the rich story universe of Robert Kirkman’s original graphic novels, OVERKILL’s The Walking Dead is a four-player co-op multiplayer FPS action game set in Washington, D.C., as an outbreak brings the dead back to life. In this test of strategy and endurance, players will band together with up to three friends on a variety of missions and raids, securing supplies and survivors to strengthen their base camp against the threat of both the
dead and the living - by any means necessary.

Each playable character has their own special abilities, skill trees, squad roles, play styles and background stories. Now they all share a common objective where survival and teamwork is paramount. The action is close-up and intense: take out enemies carefully with silent melee attacks or go in guns blazing. You need to be able to improvise, as nothing is certain, and a horde of walkers is always around the corner.

Overkill’s The Walking Dead is coming to PS4, Xbox One, and PC.
