The first episode of the second season of The Walking Dead game series will be released on December 17, as seen on the game's Steam listing.

Players have the option to pre-purchase the full season on Steam prior to its release, receiving a 10 percent discount, as highlighted by VideoGamer.

So far, developer Telltale Games has confirmed solely that the first installment in the Season 2 series would release sometime this month.

The Walking Dead: Season 2 picks up the story several months after the events of the original series took place. The action follows what happens in the life of young survivor Clementine, the game promising to put players in situations and dilemmas that will test their morals and survival instincts.

December 17 was specified as the release date for the content on the game's listing page on Valve's digital distribution platform Steam.

Consequently, it is not clear whether that will also be the official launch date for other platforms, as the game has yet to be officially announced for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Vita and iOS.
