Walking Dead: Destinies crowned newest disaster of 2023: Behind the calamity lies King Kong's infamous creator

Nov 20, 2023 3:11 PM

Gamers brace yourselves as The Walking Dead: Destinies, a new action-adventure title by Flux Games and published by GameMill Entertainment, is under fire for poor quality, looking to be a strong contender for the worst game of 2023. This follows the infamous release of Skull Island: Rise of Kong, which received a mere 3/10 rating for its disappointing visuals and gameplay.

The Walking Dead: Destinies, priced at $49.99, offers a twist on AMC's The Walking Dead series narrative, allowing players to alter the story and its outcomes. Despite the intriguing premise, the game has been criticized for outdated PS2-like graphics, lackluster gameplay, and static cutscenes, garnering ridicule and disbelief from the gaming community across social media.

Available on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch, The Walking Dead: Destinies also plans to walk into the PC world with a Steam release scheduled for December 1st. The launch has sparked a lively conversation among gamers questioning the production standards and decision-making behind such licensed gaming titles.

Oof, it sounds like The Walking Dead: Destinies missed the shot to the head it needed to bring the franchise to life in the gaming world. It's a real bummer when a game with a killer concept stumbles on execution; makes you wonder if the developers bit off more than they could chew, or if it was just rushed out the door. 🧟‍♂️💔
