The Walking Dead is bringing the zombie apocalypse to you in a new mobile game titled Our World. Much like last year's phenomenon Pokemon Go, The Walking Dead: Our World will use "location-based augmented reality" to orient players. A new trailer released by AMC and Next Games (below) offers fans a glimpse into the mechanics of the upcoming game.

According to the brief description of the game attached to the trailer, players can "fight walkers on the streets, in the park, on your sofa, wherever and whenever you feel like it." The trailer also unveiled a number of characters from the comics-inspired TV show, including Rick Grimes, Daryl Dixon and Michonne. If the trailer is any indication, these characters will be involved with gameplay -- which means you can take them home with you thanks to a little augmented reality magic.
The Walking Dead: Our World does not yet have a release date, though the trailer promises it is "coming soon" to iOS and Android devices. Returning to AMC for its eighth season on October 22, The Walking Dead stars Andrew Lincoln as Rick Grimes, Chandler Riggs as Carl Grimes, Norman Reedus as Daryl Dixon, Melissa McBride as Carol Peleteir, Lauren Cohan as Maggie Green and Danai Gurira as Michonne.
