Kirkman says the Starbreeze game is Payday-esque but with a much grander scope. Starbreeze’s Payday and Payday 2 are cooperative online games that have players working together in first-person shooters to pull off heists. Murray says Skybound and Starbreeze will have a lot more to share about their game at E3.
“What can I say? Not much,” Murray says. "I think it’s safe to assume that we’re going to be telling a wide variety of non-linear sorts of entry points to Walking Dead. I’d look to what they’ve done in the past and see where that is heading. We’re not just going to leverage Payday 2. They’re going for a much more ambitious approach to it. The team has come up with some big ideas. I can tell you that it’s not going to be a small game. It’s not going to lack for innovation.
“These games start and then they build; that’s the point.”
