The Walking Dead: Destinies (Xbox Series X) (Xclusive Playthrough - Finale) Live to See Another Day

Check out the finale of my Xclusive Playthrough series featuring the game The Walking Dead: Destinies! This game released on the Xbox One and Xbox Series families of consoles on November 17th, 2023. It was developed by Flux Games and published by GameMill Entertainment.

In this video, Rick & the survivors defeat the former Woodbury leader & make their escape from the Prison after it's overrun by Walkers.

The Walking Dead: Destinies is an action-adventure game set in The Walking Dead universe and is based on the first four seasons of the show of the same name. The player initially starts their journey off as Rick Grimes, a former Sheriff's deputy, that wakes up one day in an abandoned hospital (after being shot in the line of duty) that's infested with Walkers. After successfully escaping from the hospital and the Walker horde, Rick finds himself back in his old neighborhood desperately searching for his wife Lori and his son Carl. Instead, he finds a man named Morgan who ends up helping him get some normal clothes and supplies to survive as best he can. Morgan informs Rick that he's heard rumors of a military camp in Atlanta that was providing shelter to survivors which could also mean Rick's family. Rick sets off to find the military camp in an effort to find his family. Along the way, Rick meets other survivors that join him in his journey because they know that surviving in this new world ruled by the dead is difficult and can be costly.

The gameplay in this game combines elements from your standard fare of action-adventure games with some minor elements from RPGs (in the form of skills and items that you can collect to recover your health). The game places a heavy focus on melee combat with six (6) different weapons (bat, crowbar, machete, fire axe, sledgehammer and even a katana) that have both light and heavy attacks along with a stamina system which means you have to be smart about how you plan your attacks against Walker hordes. The game also includes six (6) ranged weapons (pistol, revolver, assault rifle, sniper rifle, shotgun and crossbow), however, those are not as common since ammo is scarce.

In terms of the skills, there are a total of 66 possible skills to obtain (more damage, faster speed while crouched, etc.) and the skill points come in the form of collectibles spread throughout the world (which, in my opinion, is one of the several bad design choices in the game as normal XP system would serve the game better). The skills you can acquire is based on which survivors are a part of your group. This can be affected by certain choices that the player makes throughout the course of gameplay that leads to either dying or leaving the group (any skills that you obtain before this happens are kept, however, any remaining skills will no longer be unlockable).

Finally, with regards to the achievements in this game: The Walking Dead: Destinies includes a total of 52 achievements for a total of 1000 GS. Approximately 14 of them are story related while the rest are miscellaneous achievements that are completely missable. The worst part is that the game is a linear game and there is no chapter select which means that if any of the achievements are missed then you'll have to replay the game from scratch to go back and obtain them. On the upside, the achievements are not affected by the difficulty that you select when starting the game so playing through the game on Easy is most certainly recommended. That being said, this is still a fairly short completion that will take you anywhere from 6 to 10 hours.
