Fight the dead. Fear the living.
Explore the unforgiving, post-apocalyptic world of the dead, where you must learn to survive. Together. In The Walking Dead Universe Roleplaying Game, the player characters must not only hone their physical skills, but deeply explore who they truly are – what drives them to go on, what they consider worth fighting for, and what they’re capable of doing, in the best and worst of times.

The team has been working closely with key forces behind the franchise and will introduce new story elements while drawing inspiration from the current series and upcoming spin-offs.
