The Walking Dead The Game Episode 1 giveaway

You would think with the impending zombie apocalypse upon us, that we here at Digital Trends would begin relentlessly stockpiling our supplies in an attempt to repel the shambling horde of undead flesheaters. Not so! Instead, we want to give you a chance to live the future, now! Virtually at least, with our Walking Dead: The Game – Episode One giveaway.

If you haven’t had the chance to play Telltale’s excellent adventure genre spin on the Walking Dead comic book series then now is your chance. We got a chance to play and review the first of the planned five part series, and you can read our take on it here (Spoiler: we liked it a lot).

It’s simple: all you need to do is register with Digital Trends, then post a comment below telling us what your favorite survival horror game is and why. On Friday May 4, we’ll randomly pick 10 lucky winners and award them a download code for the PC or Mac version of Episode One.

This contest is open to anyone 17 years and older. The winner will receive a code for use on Steam.

Good luck!

(Update: Big thank you to everyone that took the time to post and discuss. There were some truly great games mentioned and we hope you all had fun with our Walking Dead giveaway. The ten winners have been selected and download codes have been sent out. If you didn’t win don’t worry, we will have plenty more giveaways in the near future.)

The Xbox One era was a great time for indie games: Microsoft proved increasingly willing to support smaller developers, and Game Pass alone made it far easier for players to access a whole library of fascinating indie titles they hadn’t known about before.

Plus, the popular indie games on Xbox have plenty of other advantages, too -- they’re usually shorter than larger titles, they can be incredibly ambitious in design or premise, and if you’re buying them, they’re significantly more affordable purchases. Here are some of the best available to help you get started!

Nearing the end of the Xbox One's life cycle, one thing is clear: Although there are some excellent single-player Xbox One games, the console is defined by its multiplayer titles. Games like Halo 5 and Sea of Thieves cement Xbox One as the place to play with friends. Including the two previously mentioned games, here are the best multiplayer games currently available on Xbox One.

For this list, we looked for multiplayer games that are best experienced on Xbox One. That includes Xbox One exclusives, of course, but also games that are enhanced for Xbox One X. Most of the best multiplayer Xbox One games are available on Game Pass, too. If you want a few more options, make sure to check out our guide on the best multiplayer games on PC.

Evil Dead: The Game shines where other 4v1 games fail

Like a good jump scare, Evil Dead: The Game came out of nowhere. The multiplayer game quietly launched on May 13 (a Friday, of course) with no prerelease reviews and little fanfare. The quiet hype cycle may have worked in its favor, as the game has turned out to be a bit of a pleasant (and gory) surprise.
