The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners
What kind of game is it?
Meta categorizes the game as Shooter, Action, Survival, Narrative.[1] The official store descriptions place it in flooded, walker-infested New Orleans: you fight the undead, scavenge, craft equipment, and make choices whose consequences affect survivors.[1] Steam describes it as a first-person VR action game and says its VR design includes physics-based melee, ranged and makeshift weapons, exploration, and climbing.[2]
VR editions and delivery
- Standalone Meta Quest: Meta's store lists supported platforms as Meta Quest Pro, Meta Quest 2, Meta Quest, Meta Quest 3S, and Meta Quest 3. This is the Quest store edition; the listing does not say that it runs on other headsets.[1]
- PCVR: Steam lists the game as VR Only and specifies SteamVR under VR support. This edition runs through a Windows PC and SteamVR; it is not the standalone Quest software.[2]
Officially listed PC requirements
For the Steam PCVR edition, Steam lists Windows 10, an Intel i5-4590 or AMD Ryzen 5 1500X (or greater), 8 GB RAM, an NVIDIA GTX 1060 or AMD Radeon RX 480 (or greater), DirectX 11, and 40 GB of available storage as minimum requirements. Steam lists SteamVR as the VR support requirement.[2]
Developer and publisher
Meta and Steam both identify Skydance Interactive as the developer and publisher.[1][2]
The survival loop: scavenge, decide, adapt
Steam's official description frames New Orleans as a semi-flooded city with competing survivor factions, a hidden mystery and walkers in the streets. Missions from factions and individual survivors offer resources, while decisions about helping or hindering people change how the story's human conflicts play out. That gives scavenging a purpose: supplies are tied to survival and to choices about whom to trust, not just a checklist of collectibles. [2]
Combat and movement are described as physical. The player can use melee, ranged and makeshift weapons, climb vehicles, walls and buildings, and deal with walkers at close range. Steam highlights the physics-based handling of weapons and objects, while Meta emphasizes crafting and survival in the flooded city. These systems make the game a VR survival action title; the official listings do not promise that every encounter can be handled the same way, so the page avoids presenting stealth or combat as a universal solution. [1][2]
The official Steam page describes a campaign of more than 15 hours and lists Aftershocks missions and The Trial wave-based mode among the available content. These distinguish the main narrative from post-campaign missions and survival-style play. As store pages and game updates can change, check the live listing for the current included content. [2]
