Our take on The Walking Dead Onslaught
The description emphasizes several playable characters, but the separate campaign story is specifically centered on Daryl. The broader structure combines chapters, resource runs, settlement upgrades, and weapon customization rather than focusing only on a single linear campaign.
What is The Walking Dead Onslaught?
Play as Rick, Daryl, Michonne, and Carol in chapters set around Alexandria, where supply runs provide resources for rebuilding the settlement.
Combat uses 24 ranged and melee weapons with VR motion controls, and weapons can be modified to suit different combat approaches. Runs beyond the settlement bring changing walker encounters, resource availability, and obstacles. The game also includes a Daryl-led campaign about a supply run that goes wrong and a stranger in a mysterious town. Players can upgrade stats, trade resources to grow the community, and interact with characters from the show. Completing supply runs changes Alexandria as it is rebuilt into a fortified settlement.
