Despite the fact that Telltale’s The Walking Dead season two concluded in August of 2014, we won’t be seeing any story progression at all for the rest of the year. C’mon, Telltale, we’re approaching Mad Men levels of season gaps!
Telltale’s PR director Job Stauffer took to Twitter to announce the fact that we’ll be waiting nearly two years for new Walking Dead episodes:
To re-clarify, no, TWD S3 is *not* starting in 2015. But what I am seeing this week will be, and it is insanely cool. Stay close, news soon!
— Job J Stauffer (@jobjstauffer) May 12, 2015
But he did add that all is not completely lost:
Alright. No more WD teasing on Twitter until E3. Simply put, no S3 this year, but WD fans are still getting something major in 2015.

.@IGN @telltalegames ….something BIG for WD fans…

And in response to a tweet that said “we might still see zombies shuffle out of Telltale” this year anyways:
"Might?" You will! In a BIG way! ;) https://t.co/gvO7M89sF6

Now, we did experience a similarly long wait between the first and second seasons – between November of 2012 and December of 2013 – but this was punctuated by the release of 400 Days, a quick DLC episode with five new characters that came out in July 2013. Still, that’s just six months between new episodes instead of two years! How will we stand the wait?
In the meantime, Tales from the Borderlands episode 3 and Game of Thrones episode 4 are expected to drop very soon (fingers crossed), and season two of The Wolf Among Us is… coming, I guess. Oh, Telltale; giving us things we love and then making us wait desperately for more since 2004.
