This game is your chance to collect, craft and survive your way to high status in the chaotic world of The Walking Dead. Play now and you’ll be ready when the real chaos begins!
Jesus is resourceful, sly and incredibly loyal to his friends. His morality and humanity helped restore a small sliver of civilization to the broken world – a compassion that strengthened all the survivors around him.
That’s the kind of survivor you need on your team to build a new empire out of the ruins of the old world. And starting tomorrow, you can purchase Jesus directly in our next Hero sale!

The crafting event just started a few days ago. Plenty of time left to manufacture your empire. How high will you climb the leaderboards?

You, too, will need to think about the future and your people to build a successful empire.Build your empire with Jesus. Visit The Walking Dead: Empires Store tomorrow to recruit him to your team before it’s too late.
Abraham Ford’s entire life was about service. Service to his country, service to his family, service to those he chose to protect. There’s little room for celebration in the ruins of the old world, but it’s fitting that we honor Abraham Ford this week.
Abraham’s “departure” from AMC’s The Walking Dead was tragic… but he could live on. Will your empire give him the purpose he’s after?

Abraham was always ready to serve a cause he believed in. He’s ready to serve your empire.
Deadland Scavenge

Next week starts the Survival Stockpile event. Get crafting… your empire won’t build itself!
Salute the Survivors
True survivors are the ones who persist through adversity, just as Abraham never goes down without a fight. In your empire, he can continue his quest for a better future.
Stay safe out there, survivors. Build your empire strong. There’s more to protect against than just the walkers out here. Head over to The Walking Dead: Empires Store tomorrow to grab a Abraham Hero Card, then strap on your boots and build a new world together.

Glenn’s tragic death in AMC’s The Walking Dead hit many people hard (us included! 😭). Starting today, however, Glenn can live on in your empire… still protecting those around him and fighting to survive.
Glenn is adaptable and resourceful. He’s capable of doing what’s necessary when confronted with the horrors of this world, while also maintaining compassion and cautious optimism.

Introducing Weekly Events
Since the launch of our Public Development Build, you’ve had the chance to carve out your own corner of The Walking Dead Universe, and begin to build your empire. But, as any fan of the AMC series will tell you, success in this world can be fleeting… and safety is always temporary.
Starting this June, weekly events will begin rolling out in The Walking Dead: Empires that will test your skills and challenge your dominance of the wasteland. . With high risk, however, comes high reward: At the end of each event, the top 200 players on the leaderboard will receive valuable in-game prizes! So make sure you participate each week, and stay on top.
June Event Overview
There are four weekly events planned for June:
Week 1: Deadland Scavenge Search far and wide to gather as many rare resources as you can to claim the top spot.
Week 2: Build the Future Put all those resources to good use! This week you’ll need to craft like your life depends on it to climb the leaderboard.
Week 3: Survivor’s Trial You’re no background character;you’re the hero of this story. Gain the most XP of all your peers, and watch as your character’s power grows alongside your position on the leaderboard..
Week 4: Walker Wipeout An all-out undead slaughterfest. Destroy as many walkers as you can to prove your ultimate post-apocalyptic dominance..
The first event will begin on Monday, June 3rd at 5pm PT, and run for exactly one week. Each subsequent event will begin Monday at 5pm PT, with the prior week’s event running all the way through to that time
Deepening the Experience
As we build up to a full-feature launch of the game, your feedback in the Public Development Build has been, and continues to be, invaluable.
To ensure that we provide the best possible experience in the short-term, the events will be starting small. This approach allows us to gather insights from your participation and feedback, and make informed decisions to improve future events.
Our goal is to deliver a deep and engaging experience that offers exciting challenges and desirable rewards, tailored to you. Let us know what you think, and what you’d like to see more or less of in the future as we continue to grow the game
Survive and Thrive
Incorporating these events means a new version of the game is coming soon, so be on the lookout for a required update from the Gala Launcher.
Are you ready to rule the apocalypse? The first of these events begins on June 3rd at 5pm PT. We hope you enjoy, and look forward to even more as we continue to make The Walking Dead: Empires a more thrilling and fun survival experience!
