In October of last year, Next Games launched a very interesting game based around AMC’s The Walking Dead series called The Walking Dead: No Man’s Land (Free). In the game you were tasked with building a compound in order to keep your survivor friends safe from the zombies, so pretty typical base-building type of stuff, but when you actually had to engage in combat with them it turned more into a tactical turn-based strategy game. There were also plenty of RPG elements peppered in, and overall No Man’s Land was a very cool way to experience the world of The Walking Dead. Today Next Games has connected the game even closer to the show as a new update adds Heroes to the game based off of many of the characters from the show.

The first batch of Heroes to make its way to the game are Daryl Dixon (who has been lightly featured in the game previously), Rick Grimes, Michonne, Glenn Rhee, Maggie Greene, Abraham Ford, Paul “Jesus" Monroe, and Carol Peletier. I’m actually not one of the millions of people who watch The Walking Dead (gasp!) but I definitely thought No Man’s Land was cool when it initially launched and I’m interested in jumping back in to see what this latest update, as well as its many previous updates, has to offer. If you’re a Walking Dead: No Man’s Land fan, be sure to head over to the App Store and check out this new update, and join in on the discussion in our forums.
