- Saints & Sinners Anniversary Sale - 25 January 2023
It has been a long journey for this VR dive into The Walking Dead universe. From Chapter 1's launch back in 2020, to its Meatgrinder and Aftershocks expansions, to each new platform it came to afterwards, and now to the upcoming release of Chapter 2 on Steam and beyond, it has been amazing to see just how far Saints & Sinners has come. To celebrate, we want to make it even easier to jump into the action, in more ways than one. Alongside the now ongoing Anniversary Sale here on Steam, check out the video above for tons of new details regarding what's next for the series, including release date information, a new weapon coming to the series, and expanded save file importing features. If you know other survivors who haven't started their journey just yet, let them know there's no better time to join the tour.

We thank you for your patience, and hope to see you return to undead New Orleans in early 2023.

- Aftershocks Launch, Weekend Sale, and New Aftershocks Features - 23 September 2021
Hey there Tourists, The Aftershocks update is finally here, and as such we at Skydance Interactive want to make sure that you have the best experience you can have with it. Today, we would like to reveal one such way we are working to make the experience even better for our players, alongside some news and details that may be relevant to you. Upcoming Quick Start Feature While Aftershocks is intended to be played after you have reached the credits, we understand that some players may find themselves without a completed save file and not wanting to play through the entirety of the game again just to see the what's new. To satisfy these players, we plan to implement a quick start option that will allow you to jump straight into the Aftershocks content without finishing a playthrough. This feature will be implemented in a patch following shortly after the initial update, so if you do not h…
- New Release Date for Aftershocks + FAQ! - 3 August 2021
Thanks for your patience, Tourists. We know that delays are always tough. For our first simultaneous cross-platform content release, the team has been working hard at getting all versions of the update to live up to our standards. The good news is that we have a new launch date for Aftershocks, September 23rd! The content itself is playable and practically complete, but we are trying to smooth out as many rough edges as we can find. We have been humbled by how many of you have enjoyed the game, and Aftershocks won’t be the end of the content coming to The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners. We will reveal more on this in the coming months. Still, since September is over a month away, and fans are clamoring to know more about Aftershocks, we thought we would provide an FAQ / feature breakdown to hold you over, and help you prepare for the time being. - - - What exactly is the Aftershocks upd…

- An Announcement Regarding Aftershocks - 17 May 2021
Hello Tourists, We have been spending a lot of time in the past weeks getting our game ready for the announced Aftershocks update. However, technical issues have arisen which we did not anticipate. Launching on multiple platforms and upgrading to a new engine version is tricky to say the least. The bottom line is that we do not want to ship without knowing that you can access the Aftershocks update on whatever supported VR hardware you are using and have an experience up to our standards. As such we have made the hard decision to delay this update initially planned for May 20. This delay may push the launch by several weeks. We know having a definitive answer is important, so we will reach back out on our social channels once we have a final date we are confident we can hit. Thank you for your support and patience. -The Skydance Interactive Team

- The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners getting quick-fire horde mode in July - 16 June 2020
Developer Skydance Interactive's celebrated VR zombie smasher The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners is ratcheting up the tempo a little next month with the introduction of new arcade-style horde mode, arriving as part of its next content expansion, the Meatgrinder Update. In its ordinary guise, The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners serves up a richly atmospheric and genuinely nerve-shredding slice of sandbox-style undead mayhem, setting players loose among the zombie-infested, semi-flooded streets of New Orleans and then arming them with a fine selection of tools that just might help them make it to safety unscathed. Eurogamer's Ian Higton whimpered his way through the experience with admirable determination when he faced the zombie apocalypse back in January. Read more
