Episode 4, "Didact's Hand," appears to have a lot of holograms, more political intrigue and more moral relativist drama.

Yes, that leaves just one day, at the least, to prepare for the zombie apocalypse. Again. We hope you saved some tools.<br /><br /><em>Around Every Corner</em>, written by Gary Whitta, is the second-to-last episode in Telltale's Walking Dead series. It costs $5 as a standalone, or comes with the Season Pass, which runs $20 and includes all five episodes.<br /><br /><em>Around Every Corner</em> is in submission with SCEE, and Telltale will announce European and international PSN release dates as soon as it gets them. Details regarding <em>Episode Three: Long Road Ahead </em>on the App Store are coming soon.<br /><br />Part seven of Telltale's <em>Playing Dead</em> series speaks with<em> Episode Three</em> director </span><span>Eric Parsons and designer Harrison Pink about why that episode had so much death. We assume the answer is, "Because it's a zombie game, duh." <em>Playing Dead</em> part seven is embedded below, and includes heavy spoilers for <em>Episode Three</em>.</span><span><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/the-walking-dead-episode-4-around-every-corner/">The Walking Dead: Episode 4 - Around Every Corner</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/the-walking-dead-episode-4-around-every-corner/#5346098"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/10/twdep4clemtrapped_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/the-walking-dead-episode-4-around-every-corner/#5346099"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/10/twdep4kennydown_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/the-walking-dead-episode-4-around-every-corner/#5346100"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/10/twdep4keyart_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/the-walking-dead-episode-4-around-every-corner/#5346101"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/10/twdep4leestairs_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/the-walking-dead-episode-4-around-every-corner/#5346102"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2012/10/twdep4leetrapped_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div></span><p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/10/08/walking-dead-episode-4-out-tomorrow-on-psn-next-day-xbla-pc/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Walking Dead Episode 4 out tomorrow on PSN, next day XBLA, PC</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.joystiq.com"><img src="http://www.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Joystiq" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/2012/10/08/walking-dead-episode-4-out-tomorrow-on-psn-next-day-xbla-pc/">Walking Dead Episode 4 out tomorrow on PSN, next day XBLA, PC</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.joystiq.com">Joystiq</a> on Mon, 08 Oct 2012 11:30:00 EST.

This time around, Marty will be responsible for fixing the altered timeline he created in the last episode, <em>Citizen Brown</em>. We're not sure exactly how he's going to go about doing so, but we're willing to bet that anachronistic hijinks will be involved.
