Other Combat Survivors include Glen (who is more focused on defense) and Beta (whose skills can trigger extra attack damage). Obviously, protagonist Rick Grimes will make an appearance, armed with a rifle, axe, and damage increasing skills. Various characters from across the Walking Deadfranchise can be recruited, with Elex promising over 80 of them plus entirely new characters, and these Survivors are divided into Combat and Development classes, with the former being more suited to fighting with invading enemies while the latter can better fortify the settlement and improve its defenses.Įlexe has even provided a short list of some of the characters that will most likely be included from launch.

Pre-registration is currently available in both the US and UK and, according to Elex, there are already at least 1.5 million fans who have signed up and are ready and waiting to jump into the game once it launches.

However, Elex confirmed earlier today that Survivors will in fact release in less than a week's time on April 12th. Skybound and Chinese publisher Elex only announced the title last month, with a vague release window of this summer.
