Introduction:
The Walking Dead: A New Frontier picks up three years after Season Two. You play as a new protagonist, Javier "Javi" Garcia, a sympathetic character who is just trying to survive the apocalypse as he struggles to keep his family together. Along the way you’ll meet up with Clementine, now a young teenager, alone and hardened at what she has been burdened with for the past four years. Together you will face the horrors of the undead as you fight to survive and deal with adversities, failures, and betrayal.

Importing Game Saves:
If you wish to pick up where you left off in The Walking Dead: Season Two, then choose to import your previous save when starting a new game. This feature will allow you to carry on with The Walking Dead: A New Frontier depending on what happened with Clementine at the end of Season Two. If you want, you can even recreate your own backstory for the purposes of this game.

Below is an official statement directly from Telltale Games detailing how to import your save games, especially if you've played earlier seasons on a previous-gen console.

Start New Story
This is for people who haven’t played The Walking Dead before, or don’t recall their previous experience. In this mode, Season Three starts with a Clementine who has lost everyone from the previous Seasons and is left alone with AJ.

Continue Your Story
If you want to continue with the story you created in Season One and/or Season Two, then there are some options for you.

Option 1 – Story Generator:

Inside of Season Three, there is a “story generator” option where you will be asked you a series of questions that help hone in on your Clementine. This will select one of forty-two different “starting points" that include not just your ending, but also the relationships you had with different characters and the style of player you are.

Option 2 – Use your Season Two save game (from current-gen consoles):

If you’re playing on the same device, and you still have your old Season Two save file, you can import your save. When you start a new game in Season Three, you’ll be automatically prompted to use your Season Two save data.

Option 3 - Use your Season Two save game (from previous-gen consoles):

If you want to play on a different device, and still have your old device with Season Two saves. Telltale has recently updated Season Two (on all platforms) to include Telltale Cloud Saves. You’ll need to update your app, launch Season Two and create a Telltale Account (if you don’t already have one). Then you can enable Cloud Saves and upload your Season Two save to the cloud. When you launch Season Three, you’ll be able to login to your Telltale Account and download the Cloud Save. Then you’re good to go! This is how to migrate your story from one device to another, like moving from Xbox 360 to Xbox One. It works from any platform to any other platform.

Abbreviated Walkthrough:
There are a total of five episodes, each containing six story-related achievements. Like most Telltale games, The Walking Dead: A New Frontier features a branching narrative, but the achievements will unlock upon chapter/episode completion regardless of your choices throughout the game. As such, you can play through each episode's chapter at your own pace, choosing whichever choices suit your play style.

Conclusion:
Congratulations on another 1000! This wasn’t by any means a difficult completion. The story was decent and the quick-time events weren’t too demanding; it's a nice relaxing experience. See you for Season Four!
