Evaluation

The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners launched on January 23, 2020 and received two post-launch content updates: the Meatgrinder update on July 14, 2020 (a free update adding a new wave-survival mode, difficulty option, and weapon), and the Aftershocks update on September 23, 2021 (a free post-campaign expansion adding several hours of new missions and content). Both represent the full post-launch content cycle for this game on Steam. In August 2021, the developer stated that "Aftershocks won't be the end of the content coming to The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners" and promised to "reveal more in the coming months." However, what followed was the announcement and development of a full sequel — The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners - Chapter 2: Retribution — which was teased in April 2022 and launched on PCVR in early 2023. The developer's January 2023 anniversary post explicitly recaps the arc of the original game (Chapter 1, Meatgrinder, Aftershocks) as a completed history while positioning Chapter 2 as the next step. This strongly indicates the August 2021 promise of "more content" was fulfilled by, or redirected into, the sequel rather than additional content for this game. No unreleased DLC is listed for this title. The sole DLC — the Tourist Edition Upgrade — released on January 31, 2020. There have been no developer communications about new content for Chapter 1 since the January 2023 anniversary post, and that post itself treats Chapter 1 as a finished product being celebrated. The last developer communication of any kind was January 25, 2023, now over three years ago with no further posts. The game launched as a complete product, received two meaningful free content expansions, and the studio's attention has since fully moved to Chapter 2. The original game's content is complete.

About this game

LIVE The Walking Dead

Saints & Sinners is a game unlike any other in The Walking Dead universe. Every challenge you face and decision you make is driven by YOU. Fight the undead, scavenge through the flooded ruins of New Orleans, and face gut-wrenching choices for you and the other survivors. Live The Walking Dead's dark drama in your own skin.​

Survive YOUR Way

A new way to live survival horror. With the living, dead, disease and famine as constant threats, you have countless ways to tackle these dangers.
  • Face the undead guns blazing or learn all the ways to sneak and hide among them.
  • Take on missions from different factions and survivors to earn valuable resources.
  • Risk life and limb to protect those in need or brutally murder anyone who stands in your way.
  • See how your choices affect the people of New Orleans, and learn to live with the consequences.

A New, Brutal Story

New Orleans is at war. The living are not just fighting the dead, but also inflicting pain and brutality upon each other. As bodies pile up between warring factions, whispers spread of a long-lost mystery in the city that could turn the tide of the war. Will you be able to survive while caught in the middle of this conflict? Can you unravel the mystery that is behind it all? The fate of the city and its survivors rests in your hands.​

A Vast World To Explore in VR

Crafting, exploration, freedom of choice and visceral combat make this a deep, 15+ hour game built for VR.
  • Cut down both the dead and the living with an arsenal of melee, ranged and makeshift weapons, all physics-based objects you can realistically wield.
  • Knock walker heads clear off and rip out weapons impaled in their skulls.
  • Creep through ruined streets and creole mansions to scavenge for supplies and secrets.
  • Scale the sides of buildings, cars, and walls to ambush enemies from above or make a quick escape.
