Trivia
- During the Playing Dead interview of the finale of The Walking Dead: Season Two, Sean Ainsworth and Dennis Lenart stated that the third season is going to feature a "new angle" from the story.[7]
- This season was originally announced to be released in November 2016, but was later postponed for December 20th.
- Prior to release, Job Stauffer hinted that some Comic Series characters will appear in Season 3. [8]
- The character this refers to is Paul Monroe.
- This is the first season to have two playable characters as opposed to one, as seen in Season One and Season Two.
- This feature was previously used in other Telltale games, such as Tales from the Borderlands, Jurassic Park, and Game of Thrones among others.
- This game introduces a new feature that allows the player to move faster at select times while holding down another button.
- None of the quick-time events in this game require the prompted button or action to be completed; any button pressed or action done will perform the intended sequence.
- Unlike previous games, this season has no preview for the next episode and no option to replay certain chapters.
- The recreate story option before playing the game confirms Victor's fate.
- This is the only season where Lee does not appear at all (in dreams or flashbacks).
- Originally, a 6th episode/DLC was planned for this season and would reveal how Clementine eventually found A.J., as well as the events that occurred at the McCarroll Ranch. However the idea for this episode was scrapped.
- However, the episode "Take Us Back" uses the flashback of how Clementine found A.J.
