Mantic Games Preview New Walking Dead Game. Here’s Negan!
July 18, 2018 by brennon
Mantic Games has announced today that they are going to be producing a new board game alongside Skybound Entertainment, Here's Negan. The game is set in The Walking Dead universe and has you playing as the maniac Negan and his vicious lieutenants.
The game will feature a lot of the common mechanics you'll have come to know and love from the miniatures game but sees you playing as his lieutenants so that you can garner the favour of the boss.
To do this you will be rushing around the Sanctuary trying to slaughter as many walkers as possible within the sanctuary. However, as with everything in The Walking Dead sometimes it's not the undead that you need to worry about.
The set comes with a range of plastic miniatures you'll be used to seeing from All Out War too including Negan...
...and the rest of the gang which I'm sure you'll be aware of with Sherry and Laura...
...as well as John and Tara. All of them are looking awesome and of course, you could then transfer them over into your regular games of All Out War as well.
The game looks like it could be a fun way to tell a bit more of the story behind Negan and his posse of evil. You will be able to snap up the game when it launches in November!
Make sure to add this one to your watch list!

Added! Even just the miniatures are worth it. The tiles look nice, but I´m also looking forward to seeing the terrain in 3D. I suppose this is meant to depict “Sanctuary”, with rooms, the hall with the furnace, the hall for the distribution og the supplies. Nice feat: the plastic Lucille, serving as some king of counter, I believe. Initiative? The counter on the side of the character models is surely a tracker for experience or how many walkers have been killed during the scenario. If that is so I wonder how they do it for the old characters, because… Read more »
Definitely picking this up 😀 .
Wasn’t planning on adding another game this year after Kill Team but I could make an exception for this.
A great addition plus Abraham is out too.
I’m worried that you only get AoW cards for these with the pre-order.
