How would you survive surrounded by conflicted survivors in the world of Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead comic book series? If you ever asked yourself this question while reading the "March to War" story arc, then Disruptor Beam and Skybound will give you the chance to answer it with their upcoming mobile game, The Walking Dead: March to War, and we have a look at character art for the game ahead of its release later this year.

The character art features Rick, Ezekiel, Dwight, Jesus, and Rosita. In a recent interview on Disruptor Beam's blog, Art Director Allen White discussed the art style of the characters:

"The illustrated nature of the comic also played heavily into our overall vision for the look of the game. There's something imperfect and transitory in something sketched that really touches all of these notes. It's the zombie apocalypse! You'd don't have time to sit for an oil painted portrait, everything is fleeting, and done fast."

Keep an eye out for the free The Walking Dead: March to War mobile game on the App Store and Google Play later this year, and check out the character artwork and teaser video below.

"The Walking Dead: March to War is a story-driven multiplayer strategy game. Players must fight alongside and against others for control of scarce resources in and around a devastated Washington D.C., while fending off walkers and attempting to rebuild society. As the leader of a group of survivors, each player will assemble a team including a Council of well-known characters from The Walking Dead such as Rick, Michonne, and Negan. Faced with an ongoing series of moral choices, players will defend their camp against hordes of walkers and, the bigger threat, other survivors. Inspired by the stark look of The Walking Dead comics, March to War will feature rich 3D graphics unlike anything seen in other The Walking Dead or strategy mobile games.

The Walking Dead: March to War will be free-to-play and released on the App Store and Google Play this year. Fans should register as a Survivor at www.MarchtoWar.com to stay up-to-date on the latest developments as more details are announced."
