SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 12 (UPI) -- New enemies and familiar faces appear in the new launch trailer for Telltale's next entry in their best-selling adventure game series, The Walking Dead: A New Frontier.

The clip, released Monday, features series protagonist Clementine as an older and more capable survivor as she helps series newcomer Javier make his way through the zombie apocalypse.

During their journey, the pair stumble upon a fortified group of survivors known as the New Frontiers who seem to pose a threat greater than the undead.

"They used to be decent people, now they're something else," Clementine says.

Also featured in the trailer is prominent Walking Dead character Jesus who has appeared in the comics and is currently portrayed by Tom Payne on the AMC show as he lends Clementine and Javier a helping hand.

The crossover moment connects to earlier comments that series creator Robert Kirkman made about the game series and how it would begin to tie into the comic book.

"Season 3 of the Telltale series is really exciting to me just because the way that the timeline works, Season 3 will actually be getting pretty close to where we are in the comics concurrently, like the books that are coming out now are roughly in the same time frame that Season 3 will be in," Kirkman previously said.
